Playing 4 final games? wow! Try to play a min of 10 finals games and then compare to other teams.

It's ok to not understand my post, go and get a few more of the dumber Dogs supporters so you won't feel alone.

Cant believe the big red v has salary cap problems,when they keep comming up empty-Brown is a pretty smart coach--flicks the heart and soul of the place,the blood nut.Also flicks the bloke who could be anything

You said a premiership is a premiership.....correct!

Then you said something even dumber when 'the tigers have the best for an against of any team in history in finals'

That might be right but they have only been in the finals one season and thats why i said' every dog has his day'.

Lets talk about Saints fans.

They bark loudly at the fact that Cronulla have not won a premiership in their 39 year existence. When facts remain they have gone about 26 years now and won bugger all.

Then the Saints fans want to claim the merged club has won 15 premierships and not 0. Well, if they want to look at it that way does that mean

Illawarra - 1982-1998 17 seasons - 0premierships
Saints 1980-1998 - 19 seasons - 0 premierships
Saints/Illawarra - 7 seasons - 0 premierships

That they have also gone 43 years without a premiership, which would edge them ahead of Cronulla, which is quite humiliating.

Anyway i think it is good for the game that the Wests Tigers have over taken the Saints, either way you look at it. The way we like to look at it

Wests Tigers 1
Saints/Illawarra 0

The way they like to look at it

Wests Tigers 16
Saints/Illawarra 15

Actually the real way im con vinced they would argue

Saints/Illawarra 15
Wests Tigers 1

Maybe once the majority of Saints fans drop the superiority complex can they rise again, but their record since 1979 is one of misery and failure.

Seeing the Wests Tigers knock out the arrogant and self confessed favourites was a great moment. Especially great considering the amount of "good luck for 2006" Tigers fans recieved from Dragons fans before kick off. May i return the favour and wish the Dragons the best of luck in 2006 and perhaps a first premiership for the merged club??

Cheers and thanks for your time.

Good way to put it Ted..

But all in all West Tigers Have won the Comp 16 times now and St george have won it 15 times but the main thing that really matters is now Parra Have to get the wooden spoon 11 more times to be the greatest wooden spooners in history seeing as though were on 11 and West Tigers are on 21:)

No, he didn't say in finals. He said in a final SERIES. As in a specific year's semi finals.

It was quit an accomplishment by West tigers to win the GF on their first try but Outta the 6 seasons leading upto 05 the tigers hadnt made the final series .. so i guess you can say since the merger of West Tigers and St george illawarra the Dragons have had a more succesful run.. But who knows whats going to happen in the future maybe the tigers will win again in a year or two and be more succesful..

The point I was making is that bare statistics aren't always a true representation.

I'm sure most Dragon fans would swap their last 6 years for ours in a heartbeat.

The Premiership is the important thing, how you get there isn't always as important.
