    Who were you surprised never made it?

    Jarryd Sammut for mine. Saw that kid in the reserve grade GF in 2002/3 I think and eventually when he made grade and thought he was gonna set the world alight, then he disappeared into the wilderness. I live in London and saw him yesterday coming off the bench for the London Broncos.

    Dragons Fans... What are your superstitions?

    When I was a kid (in the 90's) I had a St.George flag that, due to a family connection at the time to Jason Stevens, was signed by the '94 team. Years latter, I was told at school that when going into battle it was seen as bad luck for a flag to touch the ground. During the '99 season I...

    Love how bad this jerseys is and how badly it was taken at the time but yet it's become so iconic in NSW history. Any ideas what made them change it for this one year only?

    Are we genuine contenders??

    I don't think we're title contenders this year but we've defs shown that we're well on our way to it in the years to come. We played shocking tonight. 10 mins in with what feels like an eternity since the Penrith game, I though we'd smashes them by 40 easily, next thing you know we're winning by...

    What is your favourite-ever season for the Dragons and why?

    Great times @Saints of George . The emotion at the 2010GF when we knew we'd won (ie couldnt lose) was phenomenal. Absolutely! Once Deano went over we claimed dour spot at the front with 20 to go. It was great fun! Actually, that foresight to go down the front birthed a moment in my life that...

    What is your favourite-ever season for the Dragons and why?

    Awesome story mate. At the Grand Final we were sitting by the try line and with 20mins to go me and my mates made our way down to the front and were taking our places by the billboard for the victory lap. When they made their way around Wayne was amongst the boys and was shaking hands and high...

    What is your favourite-ever season for the Dragons and why?

    I always felt 99 as being quite special. I was 16 at the time and even though it was the end of St.George as we know them, I felt a real excitement that I was there to support St.George Illawarra from the start, just felt really special to me. Also that year we were the entertainers on the...

    Does anyone know what Kari is? Not read anything about its significance or meaning.

    100% agree there. That jersey was a cracker! It’s a shame they only wore it for game 1. Would love to see it make a come back.

    The Blues haven't had a decent jersey since 2004 in my honest option. 2005 the Navy blue crept onto the jersey under the arms and then with a decade of failure came a decade of shit jerseys too. This years is an improvement, just wish we'd ditch the navy blue chevrons.

    RED V JERSEY

    I'd love to see St.George Bank (or whoever our sponsor is in 2021) remove all sponsorship for our match on Anzac Day and we run out in a full red V with old badge on it to celebrate 100 years of St.George 2 days after the 23rd April anniversary of the clubs birth. It's been done before by...

    One may have been from 2009 and one from 2010. Not sure about sponsors but I did like this jersey

    2018 Jerseys/Logos/Sponsorships

    Wests nailed it in 2009/2010 seasons with these jerseys. Simple and clean black and orange. Sadly unlike St.George where saints has held prominence over Illawarra with history and finance, Wests had a change of fortune with the Magpies coming out the bigger member and paying the bills but have...

    RED V JERSEY

    It'd be nice Gareth. I don't know how they'd ad or incorporate Illawarra into that old badge as it's just an emblem and hasn't got any names on it, but it's a nice idea and I'd love to see it, even if only for a one off game to celebrate St.George. The addition of the name Illawarra to the team...

    RED V JERSEY

    To be fair we've had our current emblem since 1979 (long before the NRL) and won a premiership in it that year and of all the club badges going around I think we're one of the few (Souths being the other) who's still got a traditional non NRL-ified club badge. I'm very proud that we never went...

    RED V JERSEY

    Being a St.George boy since birth, I was 16 at the time of the JV (same age as the Steelers club was). Old enough to have followed St.George passionately through my childhood and early teenage years but young enough to get on board with St.George Illawarra. I had mixed feelings of the JV at the...

    V Panthers

    I'm going to put it out there. I'm a die hard St.George man and one of the few supporters of Mary, but tonight I am left embarrassed. I'm not going to go straight on the hate as we're running first and our top 17 have played some great footy all season which has put faith back into all of us...

    2018 Jerseys/Logos/Sponsorships

    I've never been a fan of the post Super League era logos that a lot of teams rebranded too during the 1998-2000 seasons. Roosters, Broncos, Wests Tigers, Raiders, Sharks (1998-2003), Bulldogs (1998-2009), Panthers (1999-2013), Steelers (1998), Eels (2001-2011). They were clearly designed at a...

    Dragons 2018 ANZAC jersey revealed

    Yeh, it's a real shame that team identity has made way for sponsorship. I guess we can count ourselves lucky that at least our major sponsor shares a name, colours and mascot with our team and we don't have some ghastly block of contrasting colours across our chest. I remember in 2004 when...
