Should the sharks but the Steelers?

just reading a story in the paper about how the dragons are trying to get out of the merger.
The Steelers side would need a buyer.

Maybe knock down WIN and build more apartments?

But the filth would fold without the Steelers keeping them afloat. Who would we laugh at then ?

I like the idea of merging with the Steelers but back then we were a bit of a basket case financially ourselves. It would have put the Dragons with few options. Other than relocation.

Geographically makes sense at the very least, not sure about what kind of support base you could encourage down there being Red and White for decades.

It says that they will never drop Illawarra from their name.
In other words it will St. George/Illawarra in name only.
The smart move would be to buy into Group 7 and Illawarra Rugby League, and help run both ours and their juniors, plus have our finger in the pie of the seniors.
They won't have allegiance to the Stains after this, quite the opposite.

Kogarah / Carlton would be an ideal location for more apartments. I would love to see a revived Steelers playing all their home games out of the stadium formerly known as Wollongong Showground.
