Banter with "the port" should be at the same level as our banter with the other teams, imo our rivalry goes : 🐍 -> distance derby ---> then maybe Auckland on par with Victory (our first game) and Sydney (cheated to keep us out of a final)
If you want a bit of banter then I guess it's apt that you call yourself after the second biggest port in the country, shows the inferiority complex you're demonstrating with us. I still don't get it, Auckland isn't associated with ports particularly and your port isn't unique, you don't play near one and there is no historical association. In fact wharfies are very much rugby league through and through, they'd look down on football.
We probably have more association with ports considering our stadium is next to one.
I'll say what I always say, don't try and force it, just let the rivalry come naturally if it ever does. That goes for David Dome and the phoenix too
