Battle of the sexes and counties on the Rugby cool wall

To start off our very own ‘Cool Wall’, and cover all the bases of real sports, we have a mix of Rugby League and Rugby Union teams.

Any rugby fan would kill me for bundling the two enemies together, just as if I said Man City and Man U were the same- full of Manc wanabees and scouse rejects- but thats another story.

As a standing rule, in Britain, any team from London is boring. Arsenal & Chelsea emphasize this point. As a rugby substitute, London Wasps are just as bad. Not only do they have ‘London’ in their name, but they also try to pass off as being cool by having the nickname ‘Wasps’, it’s just trying too hard.

London Irish, however, are the only exception to the rule. Anyone who will claim to be from London AND Ireland is completely nuts and you’ve got to respect that.

The Giants are instantly in for being our local team, no matter how useless they are.

Equally, no matter how good Leeds’s teams gets, we hate them anyway. The Wildcats are cool, like a younger cousin. They beat us once or twice because we’re easy on them, and if Leeds’ kick our arse all season the Wildcats usually trip them up from behind in revenge.
