[QUOTE="Thingimubob, post: 469708, member: 20956"] Been very strange wandering onto Rugby League forums and seeing them basically using the Baabaas vs Aus game as the 'be all and end all' of the game of Union just because their attention was brought to it by the fact that Sam Tomkins was playing. It was a poor game, mostly because half the Baabaas players looked like they cba to be there, which is a massive pity. Interesting that many seemed convinced that the Barbarians are a tool used by the RFU (who in their mind seemed to be the only Union that actually means anything) to steal league players over to union. Funny that a club that's an entity on its own, and was founded in Penarth, Wales, have been stuck with this tag? :rolleyes: Really doesn;t seem that a fair few of them actually understand the whole concept of the Barbarians... Personally I think League is a great sport and do really enjoy watching it, just prefer Union. Can't help but think that many League fans have an inferiority complex too, not quite sure about what exactly since they do have a very entertaining sport, there's just no need to constantly try to prove it's a better sport than it's Union counterpart.
