What about the Steelers???

[thorson1987]

OMG. Two things I agree with you. While I think Crowe has been the best thing to happen to Souths in a very long time I do wish we had cheergirls.

True. But having nothing is better then the drummers yous used to have.,

I'm not surprised, most of the Illawarra abandoned the abortion that became stmerge and rightly so.

The Illawarra people richly deserve their own identity and with the assistance of the gentleman that owns WIN, that day is around the corner.

Stmerge will crumble as the myth they always were.

Illawarra will exist in their own right and rightly so.

And the leech in the current partnership will become the withered vine from which the merged beast was spawned.

How sweet it will be. :lol:

Dragons suck donkey nuts

 

[Marshall_magic]

Ironically, "dragons" isn't entirely accurate either - In the myth St George slayed the dragon, and in its early decades the club was known as "the dragon slayers".

Ahh, I wondered why they called them the Dragons when St George was a Dragon Slayer.

It would have been fairer AND made a lot more sense if when they merged they became the St George Steelers. It rolls of the tongue and makes more sense than putting "St George" and "Dragons" in the same name.

And Fein, the whingy 50uths chick would have sucked yours if you had some...apparently is good at it....I'd heard. Apparently, there has been plenty of practice....you don't think 50uths got back in the league without some favours being called on...lol
Yep, thats him !!
He'll be off shaving excess body hair tomorrow or something, while we St George Illawarra Dragons supporters will be watching the Grand Final.

Good night losers...good night....

Way to go pedo supporter..( Dolly....farkin weirdo)

I suggest you go for a walk down Crown Street Mall (right in the middle of Wollongong). Plenty of Red and White their today. Plus, every second car had a Dragons flag on it when I was out today.

Gotta love the haters. At the end of the day, prior to 1982 the Illawarra region was part of the St.George catchment area anyways, and alot of the former Steelers supporters I know were Dragons supporters prior to 1982.

I can tell you, the Illawarra is proud to be a part of STI. Former Steelers supporters included.

Haters wanna hate....

I love the Gong and the Gong loves the Red V.

Everyone just needs to take a deep breath and savour some Dragon flavour!

crown street mall had a best shop front comp, it was bound to attract attention...

ive been in wollongong each day this week and i havent seen as much as you're claiming to see...

if you walk down the mall any other time than when the dragons are in the final, there's definitely more people with other clubs jersey/merchandise than dragons

im sure ur right in a lot of ex-steelers got on board the dragons...but there's plenty that were turned away...and ive definitely ran into them more than anyone...

 

[n r l f a n]

i love how you all call me haters
im probably the biggest dragons fan in wollongong
it's just not tru that the dragons are loved here

Glad your a Dragons fan. The haters comment was kinda general at all the posters though.

Really surprised you haven't seen much Dragons stuff in the 'Gong. I've seen heaps, and I've found most people I speak to are behind the Dragons. You do get the occasional supporter of another team, but you get that up in the St George district to.

Anyways, we must be on different sides of the 'Gong.

A year or so back I saw a tape of the 1970 Grand Final and was interested to see the Bunnies cheergirls. Now that's tradition.

Back when Russel Crowe took over the Bunnies I saw him in the commentary box at an NFL game. Did he tell them that rugby league was a great game? That it is similar to NFL? No, he said he got rid of the cheerleaders. Those NFL commentators didn't know what to say.

Last week on the Sunday roast the showed footage of the Roosters cheerleaders from 1975.

Bubbleboy, I'll be an interested party in the Toyota Cup.

Then I'm tucking into a few beers and watching the NRL GF.

Roosters V Drag0ns.

What a pathetic little man you are. You'd find the odd bitter Steelers fan who'd be in favour of such a scenario, but nowhere near enough to support an NRL team. I know I for one would refuse to follow an Illawarra team that resulted from stabbing St. George in the back. If it was an amicable parting of ways, that'd be different, but the simple fact is that without the joint venture there would currently be no football on the South Coast, and it would have been ripe for the picking by the A-League and AFL. Perhaps in time there may have been a Titans-like return, but it wouldn't have been any time soon.

The Dragons-Steelers partnership was always a natural one, the exact opposite of the ridiculous Norths-Manly "merger", because the Dragons have strong historical links with the South Coast, and they've always had strong support down there. St. George were always the team that pulled the biggest crowds to the 'Gong as a result. The fact both teams wore red and white amde the whole thing as close to seamless as you could possibly hope for. Yes, it sucked to see my team's identity and jersey disappear, but I don't mind the Dragons nickname at all, I think the Red V is a fantastic jersey, and one of the most iconic in world sport. And next year the Steelers old kit will become the full time alternate, and while this might be 12 years too late for my personal liking, it's happened now, and I'm content.

Ah Feind, back from rehab I see. A Souths supporter supporting the Roosters? You've got massive issues, go back to rehab.
