In 2002, the two gangs were both involved in the Gang War of 2002. Despite them both being enemies with each other, out of all the other gangs involved, they actually clashed the least. The Yardies were mainly against the Triads and had their own Triads-Yardies War. Both the Yardies and Triads clashed the most compared to any of the other gangs involved. The Triads also disliked the Collins gang because they believed they had stolen a statue from them.
