I've always thought it was the fan's perspective that mattered.
If you were a St George fan before the merge and carried on until the present, for example, you get to brag that you've seen your team through 16 premierships.
If you were a Steelers fan before the merge and carried on until the present, you don't win 15 f**king premierships in 1999 when the deal was signed, so who cares?
If Souths merged with your team, are you going to through a party, get drunk enough to celebrate 20 premierships and start bragging about how your team is now just, totally the best, you guys? That would make no f**king sense.
The history of a club is carried through its fans, so that's what matters.
Now just wait for some f**kcudgel to say "I used to go for St George, now I go for Souths so I win 35 premierships".
