Souths are scum and always have been right back to when they turned up and played the GF without us there... You want to support a cause? Call Greenpeace... I pity those that think the Dunnys are not foe, they are our greatest foe I suggest you read up on Tigers V Dunnys history....
I know about the History between Balmain and Souths. Big BLOODY whoop! :roll: So what? They robbed the Tigers of a premiership back in 1909. Were you around to see it? I wouldn't think so, unless you are one old fossil. The Rabbitoh's could turn around and say the same thing about the '69 Grand Final. It goes both ways, that's sport and that's Rugby League.
Look at Western Suburbs, in 1963 Vs. St.George. Everyone in Rugby League knows that the Magpies had the game won, but thanks to Darcy Lawler (the referee) and the lack of sportsmanship from the Saints, his decision to allow play to continue when the Dragons' winger King was clearly held. It was later revealed that Lawler had money on Saints to win.
Do you see old Magpie supporters going in and abusing Dragons fans because of the mistakes and errors of the past? :roll: I think majority of Wests Tigers fans that are going in and verbal bashing the Souths froum is for one main reason. Jealousy. the fact that Souths are still a single entity, while both Balmain and the Magpies are not.
I envy Souths, but i also respect them. As a loyal ARL club, a Foundation club member like Balmain and Western Suburbs, and as well as standing up for what they believed in, and won. To hate Souths for the reasons you have stated are a joke. Especailly when comparing them to every other club that is still competing in the competition that joined Super League. They are the teams, that i hate and will never forgive or forget, as they contributed to the death of not only my beloved Magpies, but to other loyal Rugby League servants like your Tigers.
Bitter Rivarly is the only thing that should exist between Souths and the Joint-Venture. Anything more, and your as low as those who had a vested interested in the great vision of Super League! :x
