It is???...oh dear... unless of course...hmmmm...after all it is you...so may well be one of my least favourite sports which would mean it's soccer...either way I've no idea

BTW
17. LEEDS Rhinos v Dragons - RUGBY UNION

UNION...I don't think so I know I'm right cos years ago one of my troops was a Rhinos fan and then I got a Bradford Bulls fan posted in and they nearly killed each other...think it's Wedgemeisters team too isn't it???...never gnna know the other Dragons so others can help themselves to that one.
