Oh when the Saints, oh when the Saints, oh when the Saints go marching in…
There. I've done it. Sung your bloody song for the first and last time.
Congratulations to all you St George Illawarra fans.
Even the ones who have been wishing me a swift and violent death.
I've got bad news for you. I'm here for a lot longer to come.
But my old man always told me to be gracious in victory and defeat so here it is: I was wrong about the Dragons.
Cut and paste that line because I'm only going to say it once.
You stick your head out and sometimes you get it chopped off.
They proved me wrong. I have been wrong before and will again in the future.
On the big day, when it mattered most, the Red V stood tall to deliver the Dragons' first premiership in 31 years.
They are deserved premiers
I thought the Roosters were a little awestruck and failed to aim up in the key moments.
The rookie pairing of Kane Linnett and Joseph Leilua was badly exposed and I reckon if Brian Smith had his time over again he may have taken a punt on Phil Graham's fitness.
Poor old Smithy is still searching for his first crown after four visits to the grand final and it's hard not to feel some sympathy for him.
But what about his old nemesis Wayne Bennett?
By sheer weight of premierships – at two different clubs – Bennett is rightly being acclaimed as possibly the best coach we've seen.
He's got that x-factor. The media can't cop him but his players lay the love on thick.
They will walk over cut glass for him, such is their deep belief in his methods.
Sunday night was a mountain St George Illawarra had to climb – sooner rather than later as the salary cap eventually bites all good sides and will eventually rip them apart.
Bennett got them to the summit where plenty of others have tried and failed for three decades.
He will have them up there again next year and Roosters fans can also look forward to further good times in 2011.
I am already licking my lips in anticipation of the season kick off.
But first we have to suffer through the tedious Four Nations – a tournament tired and mentally exhausted players could have done without – and a never ending cricket season.
The good news is there are just 158 days to go until we do it all again in the greatest competition of them all.
See you in 2011.
