So when it used to happen to the Broncos, it was simply called a slump. But now when the same thing happens to the Dragons, it's called a choke.

Explain? :?

I think it's got to do with supporters of other NSW clubs giving it to another NSW club.

I'm a Tigers fan however find it surprising/childish people bring up Saints choking?

Maybe I imagined it but didn't they win the comp last year? And being bagged by supporters of clubs that have never won a comp, or haven't in the last decade or twenty years. Weird.

Faith restored in humanity.

good to see you still got those lolable quotes in you, bhp.

Try counting how many local juniors playing in top 17 of all clubs this year, and see just where Dragons rate.....pretty sure you might wanna retract that bought not bred crap you dribbled out.

And you saying Dragons is a club with a terrible culture, when you follow Roosters.....:lol:. How is the culture in the Roosters camp atm?

I can guarantee Roosters have more players which have played exclusively for us than your team has for you. And Roosters have cleaned out the germ players :lol: What about your team and Boyd and Nightingale :lol: Or Sowie having a cry after the game :lol: Or spurt sauce Gasnier :lol:

It's a compliment thing for the club. Apparently no club is good enough to actually beat them, every other club has no chance and are left with hoping they beat themselves..

12 out of 17 Dragons last night who are locals....and I don't mean juniors bought from another region to play flegg or TC whatever. Name any team that can come close to that.

And Roosters 17 last week.....no more than 10 guys who have played exclusively for Roosters. And most of those 10 were bought as juniors from another area.

Once again, been proven you don't think before you open your mouth.

Honestly....do you believe the Dragons had a worse team / club culture than your rabble this year?

Don't you have better things to do Baron? Like getting blind because your life is depressing? Oh wait...

Broncos definitely had slumps. The Dragons have slumps AND chokes.

I'm disappointed Baron didn't include his preaching on the Dragons 1 GF win / 16 GF wins debate of last off season. It would have been the right thing to do.

Poor thread, not many teams would've held onto a 6 point half time lead against us on Friday. But hey, if someone plays well against the Dragons it must be a Dragons choke.

This coming from someone who loves to bag the Dragons.

Baroness is the same OP who knowingly fabricated a quote from a first grade player last year. No surprise to see this thread fail.

How many local to St George? Taking over Illawarra was the best deal Dragons ever made

It's certainly up there, and craps all over the proposed Saints-Easts merger of 1995. Called a 'done deal', the powers wanted to kill off the identities of both clubs. This is completely different to the joint venture that St George and Illawarra have.

FTR, the Saints-Easts merger proposal saw zero protest from Easts supporters, and was only sunk by a committed 'SOS' campaign from Saints supporters. To date, I haven't seen a hint of gratitude from any Easts supporter. Why is that?

Why the hell do you always bring up the most irrelevant shit?

One thng funny about the SOS was the way they responded to the Illawarra takeover in contrast to the Easts proposal, but I digress how many local juniors are from St George that played on Friday for Saints? Shimmy Chin, who else?
