A big congratulations to the Storm for being named Champion Team of the Decade.

What they have achieved over the past 10 years is simply amazing and will go down in folklore. Namely:

- 4 Finals
- 2 Premierships
- 3 Minor Premierships in a row
- Most Wins over a 3 year period
- Golden Boot Winners - Smith and Slater
- World's Best Players - Smith, Slater, Inglis
- Best Coach

I just sit back sometimes and ponder what it must be like to be a Storm supporter and to have had such success, so quickly and so often. It must be like being in League Heaven.

There have been many words written about this club. I'll sum it up in one. Awesome. :clap:

Don't forget they hold the record for most wins over a 3 year period. Or something along those lines.

Clearly the best team of the modern era.

2 premierships? 4 grand finals? 1999 isn't part of this decade, so unless they go on to win the premiership this year, you should subtract 1 from each of those.

Oh yeah and just in case it hasn't been mentioned yet..... 40-0 :lol::lol::lol:

That scoreline never gets old :lol:

A decade is a period of 10 years. Were you born an idiot or have you just become one??!!:lol:

Fair enough. How do you define "the decade" though. What decade are you referring to... the past 10 years in a logical sequence... well who cares? A decade is a period of 10 years correct though there is a relevant difference between the term of 'decade' and 'a decade'. If you are going to call the Storm the champion team of a specific decade then you need to refer to a respective decade you are corresponding to.

Hey, why don't we pretend it's the 11 years from 1956 - 1966 and play the game!!! So it's actually more than a decade!


A big congratulations to St George Dragons for being named Champion Team of the Decade (Century? Millenium? What's next?).

What they have achieved over the past 11 years is simply amazing and will go down in folklore. Namely:

- 11 Grand Finals
- 11 Premierships
- 10 Minor Premierships; only finishing 2nd on F/A (by 9 points) in 1962
- 11 Minor Premierships if you want to count 1967!
- Most Wins over an 11 year period
- Undefeated season (19 Wins, 1 Draw) in 1959
- World's Best Players - Provan, Raper, Gasnier, Langlands, King, Kearney, Walsh, Bath, Billy Smith, Lumsden, Clay, Ryan, Wilson, Huddart, Rasmussen, Bugden, Porter .. should I keep going??
- Best Coaches - Kearney, Provan
- Best Administration - Facer, Doust, Price

I just sit back sometimes and ponder what it must be like to be a Dragons supporter and to have had such success, so quickly and so often. It must be like being in League Heaven.

Im waiting for a Souths fan to come in and say team of the Century.

Or a Roosters fan claim to be the best because they have won the most matches in Premiership history.
