Even though we are trying to stay away from our home games played away, from now on we will attend and also protest their. So anyone who has a banner or something to show, please do and you will have our support as well. United we stand against these clowns.

the club has been on the slippery slope for a while. Over the years, whose interests have been served?

Hey everyone,

Not sure who here will be attending Saturday nights game, but did anyone here receive a message that they have to register their banners prior to taking them to the game???

I just find it so funny and stupid at the same time because to date, I don't remeber us ever doing that to our home games. I know homebush you do, but kogarah and WIN Is a first.

Unless they, the management, are expecting a backlash of banners against the board or the team. :lol: maybe running scared or worried...........could be a good thing. :)

Make up about 10 banners and just let them confiscate them one at a time:D

Red V passion, don't know if you saw my post about some kind of protest over the board/management, but would like it if I could get your feedback as you had the brilliant idea of those banners down at the leagues club. We need to do something about the constitution of the board and get red v members a say in who is on the board.

Red V lets organise a protest down at kogarah, not necessarily on a game day, but just to let the cronies know we have had enough and not going to take it anymore!! we as red v members deserve a say and a representation on the board

Flashback...

ST GEORGE RL COMMITTEE QUITS EN BLOC

Author: By PAUL TAIT
Date: 02/07/1987

Publication: Sydney Morning Herald
Section: Sport (page: 34)


The seven-man committee of the St George District Rugby League Football Club resigned last night.

The committee, headed by president Jim Grant, resigned after meeting Saints Leagues Club general manager Danny Robinson and chairman Alec Mackie. The meeting was also attended by NSW Rugby League general manager John Quayle.

The meeting was held to discuss the financial assistance of the Leagues Club to the Rugby League club. It is believed the Rugby League club requested a grant of approximately $1 million from the Leagues Club for next year, double the size of the current grant.

The St George Leagues Club will now take over the running of the Rugby League club and will appoint a sub-committee to administer its affairs.

Club secretary John Fleming, a paid official of the Leagues Club, retains his position.

Robinson said the committee agreed to resign "in the interests of the betterment and continuation of the St George club".

"The board of directors of the Leagues Club have been requested to inject funds into the football club to enable it to meet the commitments for 1987 and in particular to become a more competitive force for the 1988 season," Robinson said.

"The Leagues Club have agreed to do this and also to support the proposal of the Kogarah Council and the State Government for the development of a grandstand at (Kogarah) Jubilee Oval.

"The amount of funds required is significant and with such a commitment for funds it is considered reasonable that administration and expenditure should be controlled by the Leagues Club."

Robinson said that the move was a necessary one if the St George club was once again to become a competitive force in the Sydney premiership.
The club has suffered from an exodus of top players since 1985, including Michael O'Connor, Steve Morris, Chris Walsh, Perry Haddock and Pat Jarvis.

Only this week second-rower Billy Noke and utility back Chris Johns signed contracts with the new Brisbane club.

The Rugby League club felt it needed more money from the Leagues Club if it were to retain its current playing staff and sign more quality players.
That desire to strengthen its playing staff led to the demise of the Rugby League club committee.

The club also met the NSW Minister for Sport, Mr Cleary, last week to discuss the financing of the new grandstand at Kogarah Oval.

That meeting resolved that the State Government would make $1 million available in the form of a grant and a low-interest loan.

Kogarah Council also agreed to make $300,000 available, while the Leagues Club is still to determine the size of its contribution to the project.

Coupled with the money it will make available for the purchase of players, the Leagues Club may now be looking at a financial commitment of more than $2 million to rebuild its football team and home ground.
From what i know this is no longer relevant as the leagues club only provide the JV with $250,000 in grants now-as most of the revenue for the club comes from sponsors and the red v memberships, why shouldnt we have a voice?

Sorry for late reply.

Just came home from work.

I can honestly say to all that there is something in the pipeline, but we need to plan this right and go hard. We looking also to make a crowd out of it and hopefully people will help and support us to get our team back and these clowns out.

Will keep you updated, but for now it's just planning how to do it and once we have something solid I'll reveal all I can.

I did thou send the following to our beloved club after they asked for banners to be registered.



To our Beloved management,

Since when do we dragons supporters need to register our banners to take to our HOME GROUND????

what are the board worried about? Anti banners being made against them? Well they should be.

This club is run by clowns and we no longer are a force in the NRL and have become a joke thanks to Mr Doust and the monkeys running this club.

Keep doing what you guys are doing and trust me you will have no fans that would be attending.

This club has become a joke. Thanks for nothing. **
