From the English perspective, it's a massive game, but we're taking it very seriously as well, because it's a big part of our preparation [for the NRL season]. BTW... it is their pre-season build up and like us with the SL im sure a strong start to the NRL is prioroty

Jamie Lyon:"We have to be prepared to win ugly. If it has to be about nitty-gritty, and not being pretty, then that's how we'll be.

Isn't that how they play in the NRL every week? slow the ball down, mess the ruck up etc......

Didn't Lyon play for stains in 2005 and 2006 not 06 and 07?
