Yeah 9k packed in Caravan Pk

Can only pack as many as it holds.



If you want to see which derby is biggest, check out the latest issue of Rugby League World magazine.

Apart from Wigan, I've got more friends at St Helens than any other club. Pre-match, they are generally a good bunch and for a derby, everybody is generally well behaved and in good spirits.

Still, I hate them and everything their club stands for.

Copy and paste eh,

That was the joke

Hull v Rovers. Same city. Nuff said

You think you have the bigest derby, we know we have the bigest derby.

In many countries the term local derby, or simply just derby, means a sporting fixture between two local rivals.

The term is sometimes also misused to describe major rivalries in which both clubs have substantial regional or national followings.

The first Para is the Hull derby as both team are local due to been from the same city.

Second para is saints / wigan derby. (IE the terminology is misused as your followings are regional and not split within a city (locality))

JJB Stadium to KR is 8 miles. That is local. HTH.

If we played the derby in billinge would that make you happier??

We should copy Saints expansive style and then paste them.

Castleford v Wakefield

In all honesty who really cares ? You don't get an extra award for having the biggest derby. In short it will be a great weekend for RL, both Wigan / Saints and Hull / Rovers will pull in over 20,000+ crowds. A wigan or saints fans will say they have the bigger one same with Hull / Rovers, the main thing is that we will all expierence a good game that means alot to you over the next two days. So I couldn't care less whether people say ours or Wigans derby is bigger because come kick off tomorrow I won't give a .

So ours is the only derby as it's played under the earl of derby's "land"

Has to be Saints v Warrington atm ..... Will go back to Saints v Wigan as soon as the games start getting close again!

saints v warrington?

Well said!





But Wigan v Saints is still bigger.

What score was the last derby?

Perhaps not but for me it is a major part of the occasion. A derby for me is all about fierce rivalry and competition/one upman ship/bragging rights, the recent demise of Wigan has taken away this aspect for me, hopefully it will be reignited tonight.

As i said on another thread i am still more excited by tonight than i am or have been any other game this year simply because of the positive off field strides we have made in the last week.

surely its leeds v saints atm then?

That is never, ever a derby, just a ritual humiliation

it is for wire fans, they must miss playing widnes so they have a 'proper' derby

I was going to suggest that in the initial post except most people would not class it as a derby due to the locality. That is now the biggest rivalry i think locality differentiates between a rivarly and a derby.

Either way i think it is a shame that in my opinion anyway we are not really involved in either the biggest derby or rivalry as it stands in the game.

Just my thoughts on the matter and we all know what they count for.......
