Your performance v Melbourne with 13 'players' was many times more embarassing than the result of a megalomaniac referee last year.


By far the funniest comment out of all. I would of been more embarrassed to lose by 70 oints to the floundering Eels, then to the Reigning Premiers by 60.

Yeh but our five eight wasn't talking up how we were goin to slaughter them

Frailty is a good name to sum up the Sharks mate.

Rescued from bankruptcy and staving it off....Even John Lang said that.

Toyota Park, Caltex Park etc etc etc etc etc

Try 99 Grandfinalists, 2001 Finals, 2002 Finals.

Whimpy Shark, Ripoff of the Dallas Cowboys, now another deformed Sharks

How old is Beattie, Stevens, Kimorley, Peachey, Vagana? all your star players on the slide there. Not to mention players like Nutley.

We didnt sell out to the Super League, we were loyal.

We have 2 halfbacks, and occasionally a 5/8 as well.

No-one wants to merge with you because you want too much. and have too little to offer. No financial security and an average junior base.

Ask uncle Rupert if you guys are Never Struggling...Pepsi, Fox 8 was a sponsor wasnt it? Toyota? LG, who will it be next year? I'll go get the Lottery.

Actually I did check the jersey sales...its the best of the NRL...sorry

Still a Large fanbase even though it was stilll bigger when we were unmerged.

There's nothing doing in that post, absolutely nothing.

Keep trying SS, keep trying me old son....one day maybe, you will be able to actually make a good point. Thats a high goal I know, but aim for the stars mate.

That doesn't surprise me. Not the fact that you are two clubs but for other reasons to do with class etc.
You see, as much as I love rugby league & my club, I could not bring myself to anything more than hang a jersey up in local pub or something like that. & I feel most supporters from affluential areas with a bit of class, feel the same way.
But, when you have the misfortune of having to go over to your neighborhood, you know, to collect a debt from some loser or something, you see people walking around in them everywhere. St Vinnies can't stock them fast enough by the looks of it. They make a particularly nice outfit with the socks & scarf that most of the feamale(& I use that word grudgingly) wear out to nightclubs. I guess it makes them easier for guys to tell them apart with the numbers on the back & everything. The old "mines the one without the moustache" probably stopped working a long time ago.
So anyway, congrats on the jersey sales, good to see the two clubs are starting to win something.

Hey i admit your club is good.... but also when i was referencing finals... i meant finals... u know the game before the grand final... u see it goes Preliminary Finals, Quarter Finals, Semi Finals, Finals, then grand final. So when u get knocked out of the Preliminary finals it doesnt count as making the 'finals', there are some more games to go.

We didnt sell out to the Super League, we were loyal.

U call it loyal, I call it ignorant and stupid.

Toyota Park, Caltex Park etc etc etc etc etc

Again... struggling for sponsors???

Frailty is a good name to sum up the Sharks mate.

Frailty - A fault, especially a moral weakness
Our moral weakness is bothering to play the steelers because they are a rubbish team who are inconsistent.... Hey i dont care if we lose, at least we do that consistently and dont get our hopes up only to be shitted off when we dont make the finals.

Whimpy Shark, Ripoff of the Dallas Cowboys, now another deformed Sharks

When i referred to a whimpy shark, it was our "rip off" (its two words by the way not one). Funny that Nth Qld copied us or them as well.... and again that magic word... Modernise....

If u want the meaning...
To make modern in appearance, style, or character; update.

Ask uncle Rupert if you guys are Never Struggling...Pepsi, Fox 8 was a sponsor wasnt it? Toyota? LG, who will it be next year? I'll go get the Lottery.

Doesnt seem we are struggling to find it, thanks for proving my point.... maybe u can use the struggling search for sponsorship with the broncos as well :lol:

How can you possibly, rationally, humanly think that we hate your club because they sell more jerseys than us? There are so many things in the world to hate. The amount of corporate merchaindise sold is possibly the most petty, irrelevant and childish reason to hate something.

 

[Macca]

I don't hate St.George-Illawarra. I like Illawarra and their fans. I like all the Illawarra juniors that play for the club. I dislike St.George fans immensely. They think they are the Royal Family of Rugby league because they won 11 straight premierships with a test side 40 years ago. You know once the Sharks split away from them in 1967, they stopped winning. ;-)

They live in the past. We look to the future.

 

[carcharias]

The real reason why I hate the dragons is because of the disgusting way they bought the game into disrepute by using a male cheerleader in a pre-game spectacle before a game against the Sharks.

Which we won :lol: :lol: :lol:

We sharkies have always been perceived as the little brother, or the lesser club down South and still are.

Over the years our jealousy/ hate has come out of their previous success as compared to ours - nil.

We've always had less money, lesser players and have been on the verge of bankruptcy several times, they get the coverage in the media, and we are sick of listening to their bloody annoying and arrogant fans.

We may have been perceived as the little brother in 1967 but I think we lost that tag in 1973.

I have never been jealous of them. I have never hated their players or their club. I simply dislike their supporters. They live off a test side winning 11 straight 40 years ago. Before my club existed.

Thats true, apart from the lesser players quip.

You've been saying that since 67. But keep on looking, you wont see anything.

 

[Macca]

St.George-Illawarra - 0 premierships.

 

[Follow Me Up To Carlton]

Five years.

[Macca]

St.George - Exctinct
