Why the heck do they keep playing this derby in Wollongong?!

 

[SBD82]

Why the heck do they keep playing this derby in Wollongong?!

We only play the good teams at Kogarah.

 

[Valheru]

St George

They grow a leg at WIN

 

[Dragon Slayer]

Why the heck do they keep playing this derby in Wollongong?!

Probably because they have more wins there?

But we have beaten the Dargons 8 games in a row and it should be 9 after this weekend.

Surprise , surprise you’ve tipped against us once again.

Must kill you to see us in the top 4.

Hope you’re not in any tipping comps you’d be near the bottom for sure.

Well I'm actually leading it and easily

And I tipped the sharks last week you little sook... with confidence too which it turns out was unfounded.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Sharks were pretty ordinary last week, but they get a few back. Saints werent much better. Suli is still a huge out, sharks will target the Fagbros a lot better then Tits did. No idea, maybe go Saints by 2.

 

[This Year?]

I wonder how Bulldogs fans feel about this match.

Oh noes sumwun totally f**king insignificant didn’t tip my team to win a game!

blubber blubber blubber - grow the f**k up

 

[THE CHAMP]

As a loyal Broncos supporter I'll be putting money on the dragons.

That should really f**k them

[This Year?]

Everytime the derby gets played at the 'gong I feel sorry for the Illawarraites.
They've been roped into this crazy rivalry pretty much without a dog in the fight.
For us older St George fans this game is almost a lose - lose situation.
If we win it will pretty much help the Bulldogs into a top 4 spot and if we lose then we lose the derby for the 9th time in a row and help the scum secure a top 4 spot.
If we're lucky enough to even make the finals we'll most likely face either of these merkins 1st too and it would be glorious to end either of their seasons (however slim the chance it would be of happening).

As a loyal Broncos supporter I'll be putting money on the dragons.

That should really f**k them

Damn you. I'll have to use my sportsbet account to wield my magic!
