Finally, after 18 years as boss, Peter Doust finally shuffled out of his office for the last time yesterday.

The St George Illawarra CEO, the longest serving club boss in the NRL, had his final official day at the Dragons yesterday.

Doust oversaw the early days of the fledgling club after the merger of the St George Dragons and Illawarra Steelers, with the joint venture club winning one premiership in his almost 20-year tenure.

Doust has been one of the most polarising figures in rugby league. His retirement will likely be welcomed by sections of the club’s fan base who have long called for his resignation, with the infamous “oust Doust” banners once conspicuous on the hill at Jubilee Oval.

One of Doust’s greatest achievements was attracting legendary coach Wayne Bennett to the club in 2009, with Bennett going on to end St George’s 31-year wait for a premiership a year later.

End of an era......of memes lol

That public toilet banner is the most apt
