I need to pay attention to where to boarder is...but there isn't a gnats tackle between them.

Did you have a robust education system in Warrington. Border separates areas or countries. A boarder is what Boris was at Eton. Boris by the way knew one RL team, yes St Helens. Cullen the only Warrington born legendary player.
Didn't Murphy accept a walk on cameo in 1996 when we won the inaugral Superleague? For the life of me I can't remember who we put 60 on that day.

Ha Ha now it's my turn Barry it was 80-0. Our banjo plucking cousin does not do history.
Dead right sir. Regal Trophy 80-0 was early 1995. Last super league game of 1996 v Wire was 66-14 or something.
Was our first title for a fair while. Nothing like 2/3 of a century though. We've won a few after as well whilst Warrington have won...erm....4 challenge cups. Maybe 5?
The sheer enormity of that club cannot be understated
Those beatings carried on into the next decade the best we could muster near the 80-0 beasting was the 72-2 home win in the league, the best offer from Wire was 56-22. I seem to remember a game where Kohe Love had a nightmare couldn't handle Newlove and moved to the other side only for Newlove to go hunting for him.
The 80-0 beasting was the end of Brian Johnson as a Warrington coach.
The amount of times that used to happen with Newlove was hilarious. I've never seen a player make his opposite number look completely ridiculous on so regular a basis.
There was a game in which Andy Currier lined up against him for Wire and had to be moved to the other side as well.
I’ve never understood the loving that Senior receives as in my view we had at least 4 centres during the Super League era that were vastly superior - Newlove, Lyon, Gidley and Iro. When you also consider that the likes of Talau, Gibbs, Hunte and Hoppe appeared in the centre, I think Senior would struggle to appear in our club’s top ten centres since 1996.
Senior was a very very good centre. Very different player to Newlove / Lyon who oozed class, but really effective nonetheless and showed up reasonably well at international level too.
