Facts are that since 2006 Souths have been re-building towards becoming the most successful club of the modern era.
Facts are that many NRL clubs wish they were in our current position.

So next time, get your facts straight...

Those aren't facts

Facts are that Souths WERE the least successful club of the modern era.
Facts are that Souths currently have more members than any NRL club (over 18,000)
Facts are that Souths are currently the most profitable Sydney based NRL club.
Facts are that Souths have been in the top eight for most of this season.
Facts are that Souths have still won more premierships than any other club.

ha ha.
Facts are. None of the souths internet cowboy fans were born when souths last won the comp.
Facts are since the comp expanded out of Sydney, Souths have "won" more spoons than any other club.
THE BIG FACT IS performance wise - NO other club has a worse playing record ie: qualifying for the playoffs than Souths. Two decades, 1 finals apperance.
How many spoons???

Not trying to be cruel, Souths are obviously building nicely & have some dangerous talent on their books, But the way the fans go on its like they've won 10 of those 20 preimerships in last 10 years:sarcasm:

Nemesis seems confused by facts and opinions. Dope!
Dude, I was was taking the "juju" out of juju for stating as fact that "the bunnies ARE the least successful club of the modern era".... which is a subjective opinion, not a fact. Imbecile!

Souths were great mid-20's-early 30's, early 50's-mid 50's, late 60's-early 70's.

Great history- but most Rugby League fans these days would not know what it is like to watch a truly decent Souths team. Your pride is based on what you have heard, not actually seen. The closest I have seen to a great Souths side was in 1989.

I don't think this should be about Souths.

Thing is, we can drop this game and still be a top-four contender. Hell, we lost to Souths twice in 2008 from memory including one at home when they were 1-11 at the time.

So whilst I'd love the two points, I won't say we're shot ducks if we lose. It's incredibly hard to win 5-6 whatever in a row in this competition and you're inevitably going to slip up after a while. I hope it's not this weekend, but the nature of the comp suggests a loss is around the corner.

But yes, it'll be a tough match and yes the Bunnies aren't the same without Luke at hooker. Etc etc.

i can think of at least eight, and probably even nine who would think otherwise.
What.. that wouldn't want to be in Souths strong financial position? That wouldn't want more than 18,000 members? That wouldn't want some of Souths players? That wouldn't want be in the top eight?... fmd :roll:

So now you're telling me what my own pride is based on?

Please sir, can I have some more?

You're the one playing the old ''Souths have won the most premierships'' card

Technically, that's true...but what's it worth when the current crop of supporters have had no joy in 30-40 years

Glory, Glory to South Sydney :roll:

"Facts are that many NRL clubs wish they were in our current position.'' i.e many NRL clubs, not most or all. The overall context of "current postion" I stated as being financial health, membership levels etc. Also, I did not say that we were currently in the top eight... we were up until last week and have been for most of the season, unlike your mob.

You - dope.

Regardless, our currrent crop of supporters can still look at a cabinet full of 20 premiership trophies. Whilst your lot can can look at.... :sarcasm:
