im a rugby union man myself which makes me feel ashamed sometimes with being from up North. Plus it means i end supporting crummy Leeds Carnegie rather than the awesome Leeds Rhinos

Im a southern boy, so its rugby union for

None of that rugby league crap down here

As a Northerner, I spent my formative years playing Union at school and League for a few years whilst working.
When I emigrated to the south I couldn't find a local team so let things go by the wayside (that and a serious back injury).
Then my eldest saw an ad to give union a try - and liked it so spent 6 years playing Union with the last 2 years having an overlap into league during the summer. He's since taken up league more seriously and we've travelled to Hemel for the last 2 years to play for the Hemel Stags.
Only downside is the early start every other week to travel up north for the away matches - Carlisle and Gateshead being the real killers in terms of distance - generally a 6.30 set off and 11 or 12pm return.

There are a couple of teams around London but the M25 and London roads can give a journey time almost as long as going up north!

Half the Hemel team hail from OZ so we tend to watch a lot of Oz rugby on the big screen at the club.

I used to watch Wigan Warriors when I was little but I've not been or followed them since they moved to the JJB (sorry...DW) stadium

Wildcats All the Way...

Could be an interesting season with Crusaders having a manager in noble who seems to do well everywhere he goes... Leeds Rhino and St Helens are still a cut above the rest..which sucks

My Uncle once said "watching Wigan has got boring, we KNOW we will ALWAYS win..."

And they did... every match pretty much... then it all changed

Cheers for that, and good luck to your boys too..
I love the Roses matches, and the fact we can mingle with the opposition fans unlike Soccer...plus have a beer or two in my seat during the game!

RL is a real man's sport, no softies (which probaby explains why Southerners are less "enlightened") No hiding the ball up the shirt & being pushed along by a gang eh!

Rock on RL!
