Why you love St George so much ?

There you go Parraboy. RedDragon and Red C have shown you everything which is likeable about St George Illawarra Limited :roll:

The real hatred comes from them, not us. We actually think they're hilarious. You should see their faces as they trudge out of Toyota Park after each humiliating loss we inflict upon them, it really is priceless. I know it's a bit like pulling the wings off flies, but hey...

You see, this rivaly comes from the St George half of St George Illawarra Limited. Ever since we came in in 1967 they grew weaker and weaker, right up to their eventual death as a first grade club in 1998. The St George way has always been to blame someone else, so naturally their death was our fault because we went with Super League :roll:

Manly were always the club we hated the most, because of the well documented shenanigans in the 70s. These days Manly aren't good enough to hate as much anymore, so we just hate the Merged Scum back.

They are jealous that they have only managed to beat us 3 times from the 12 games we have played.
They are jealous that we have been able to stand alone, while they had to whore themselves off to another city
They are jealous that they have to travel 2 hours to most of their 'home' games
They are jealous that we are the only club in the NRL to own their home ground, which is in a far superior area to both Kogarah and the Gong
They are embarassed that they have a waterboy as a coach
Their players are thugs, who beat up their partners and each other
Their fans make Catholics and Protestants look like best mates

Deep down they know their club and its history is dead, but hell will freeze over before they will ever admit it. And they know each game we win against them is another they have to win before they even start to close that 8-3 gap.

Which is why beating them is almost better than sex :D

At least we merged with a club that we have tradition and connections with

Tradition? You needed their juniors or you were going to sink

Connections? Wow same colours. I bet they're over the moon having to join with such a merkin of a club. Then again they get most of the home games so they're not as bad off as the Dregs are.

Parraboy,

They don't really hate us and if they do they don't know why they do. Any displeasure they profess towards us is just a pure reaction to our absolute loathing of their scummy club. (Reactionaries, a fitting label for staunch Liberal voters.)

Although it is worth noting that we are their only local rival while here in St George we have Souths bordering us north of the Cooks River and Canterbury to our west on the other side of the East Hills line.

St.George & Illawarra are extinct clubs now. The sooner you imbeciles realise you SOLD your soles the better.

There is a young club called St.George Illawarra Dragons and apparently they have an appalling record against the Sharks!!!!! :lol:

Anyway your beloved St.George is in illustrious company now.

North Sydney
Illawarra
Hunter Mariners
Gold Coast
Western Reds
South Queensland Crushers
Western Suburbs
Balmain Tigers
Glebe
Newtown

Now you follow a club that moves around like a gypsy!
A coach who assaults his players.
A hooker who not only ate all the pizzas but the delivery driver as well.
A centre who described himself as rotten bread.
A secondrower who turns up to training with a beer can in his hand.
A cheerleading squad with a guy in it.
A Grand Final history of 1. (Which you lost to a Brett Kimmorley cross field kick) :lol:
A past player who can't put two words together to make a sentence, has a bigger mouth than Luna Park & calls himself "The Man" but sucks a Chubba Chup at a press conference and then expects world leaders to respect and adhere his opinions on World Peace!!!!!! :lol:

f**k you guys belong in a mental assylum not the NRL! :roll: :lol:

Yes having no juniors really does mean you will sink...look at the Roosters.
Tradition is the players that we get from there and the connection is the colours.

So there you have tradition and connection just like I said.

You might of noticed Parraboy that Jimbo is an aspiring comedian.
He likes to have a go at me and Red V for coming in here...yet look at ALL the thread and posts he has made in the Dragons forum, trying to reassure himself that the Sharks are a good team.

Even though the Dragons are 2nd on the Table and the Sharks are somewhere closer to the bottom than they hoped....they still believe that they are better than us. Then they will revert back to "Who won last time we played?" Dragons won there again.
THEN they revert back to "We have beaten the merged club more than they have beaten us!" But fail to Bring up the St. George V Cronulla victory rate because that has them sunk as well.

The next attempt is the "Well at least we arent merged scum" suggesting that because we are merged, that we are scum....the Sharks havent merged and they are still scum.

Then as a final attempt at making themselves feel good they bring up Dragons V Melbourne 2000 when we lost 70 - 10, but fail to bring up that in 2003, they were defeated 74 - 4 by Parramatta.

They put a mad man at the helm of their club who gets rid of players of a high standard because they do not equal a 'winning culture', and then have the hide to say nathan brown slapped Baz...how crazy is he.

:lol: Nice try Sharks fans, but not nice enough.

Thanks Jimbo.

Well I was brought up to hate St George by my father. He is now a Canberra fan, as he lives there, but used to be a Parra fan.

The reason he hated them so much, as with every other league lover of that generation who were not St George fans, is that St George won their 11 back-to-back premierships with a lot of help from a referee named Darcy Lawler. The guy was being paid year in, year out to ensure St George won.

Also, this was the day and age of "unlimited tackles". So if you had the ball you could hang on to it all day, if you were good enough. Which they were, and which they did.

This made for some very boring play. Until the opposition tired and then Raper et al would cut loose. Game over.

This is the reason the 6 tackle rule came in.

To top it off, they had money and bought whoever they wanted.

And the final straw, for most clubs, was that they had a junior base which stretched from the south of Sydney all the way to the Victorian border.
Quite an enviable nursery.

So, it was decided a new southern club would be brought in, The Sharks, who could draw on St George's juniors. Not all of it, mind you, but some.

This is why the Dragons hate the Sharks. They have been a weaker club since.

Then we get Illawarra taking even more in 1982 (I think) and Canberra the same year, and it's pretty much goodnight Charlie for the Dregs.

So, in answer to their question of "how many premierships?", I ask in return, "how many have you won




post-1967?

I must admit
I am very jealous of St George

I wish I supported a club that no longer exists and had to merge and now the new club plays most of its games far far away

Just a correction here: That wasnt 'our' junior base but we did recruit heavily from the area, as did many other clubs.

Dont worry SS, soon you will be supporting a team that doesnt exist and plays all its home games 900km away.

Onto the Dragons fans are jerks debate, the order of most annoying, bogan-yobo, disgraceful fans goes in this order:

1) Panthers
2) Tigers
3) Sharks
4) Souths

See there we go again

The Dragons want the Sharks to die or to move far away, like St George did

We just want to beat them all the time

They're a real worry!
