I think it's logical for teams to have a few 'rivalries', but there will always be that one that stands out for you. We had a massive rivalry with Bradford and Leeds etc back in the day, but Wigan always stood out as [ithe one[/i.

Saints will always be our biggest rivals but at the minute Wire are our biggest threat to achieving success.

Good post. As a Wire fan, I would always expect that the Saints v Wigan rivalry is the biggest. Rivalry and threat are two completely different things.

Beating Saints means just a little bit more. But the disappointment of losing to either is equal at the moment I'd say. Horrible feeling!

I've got plenty family members who still see Leigh as a bigger rival than Warrington.

Well, you are quite behind the times down your neck o'er the woods aint ya

Are they still darn pit wondering when the next shift change is, 'Wee'us next shift John? uewor maud mus be pig sick, bin darn ere berrt 10 yeer narr'

Staines are like the wasp sting, Wire the bluebottle which keeps buzzing around.

Do not want a wasp sting the bluebottle just bat it away with a rolled up Oldham Chron, if you get my drift.

Yes. Without a shadow of a doubt. I dislike saints, I hate warrington. Wigan v saints has become like a friendly rivalry over the last few seasons. The warrington game has an edge to it, it is a genuine dislike of eachother.

Not really. Not heard rugby league clubs compared to diptera before. Bit low-brow, don't you think?

As a Wire fan for 40 years, Widnes will always be our main rivals.

Rivalry appears to be based on geographic proximity.



Who ever said rugby league was parochial?

wigan fans don't like to admit it, but it kills them that a little old club like Warrington, can 'give them a game' nowadays

Though I'm sure that their arrogance will stop them from overly admitting it.
