Now then SigmundOfTheDump, 'Tis all getting a bit deep.
To be honest, I have never really hated the rhinos in the same way that I dislike scum or bratfud shitty, dunno why as I have always thought that the supporting of RL teams is a bit more tribal than footie. Bulls and Rhinos does not compare to Leeds and Scum as it takes the rivalry across the county line and Yorks/lancs rivalry predates both sports. In the Grand Final I wanted Leeds to win because in order to sweeten the bitter pill I saw it as Yorks v Everyone Else. Or to look at it in a different way - Both teams play in White. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tim Leslie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, October 25, 2007 11:06 AM Subject: Re: [LU] Mighty Whites/Bratfud Bulls > Interesting stuff from everyone, thanks for the replies.
