Josh Dugan is a talent at the Raiders. A big pack too. Is Learoyd-Lahrs still playing for the "Green Machine" ?
It depends how you look at St. George-Illawarra. Do you view them as a continuation of the old St. George club or would you class the St. George-Illawarra Dragons "joint venture" as a new club?
As an outsider looking in, you can't argue with 11 premierships in a row (pretty sure that's correct?) even if it was yesteryear. It's something I'd be proud of as a fan of a club.
Wigan is a club built on it's history (as all clubs are) it's just Wigan has created a pretty glorious history for itself here in the UK and even we didn't manage 11 premierships in a row so my point is I do admire that record.
I don't live in Aus so can't say I know many St. George-Illawarra fans. It was gutting losing out to them on the 2011 World Club Challenge over here in the UK though.

its interesting what u say about the wrld club challenge, i mean yeah we watch it n r happy when our teams win, but its not really a top rating game in aus anymore. its played outside the regular season n our teams have to travel, so its always downgraded, especially if we loose.
st george, where do i start lol.
well for starters i am actually an illawarra boy, and its not a joint venture. i really dont know why they keep illawarra in the branding n name.
as for raiders, ahahahahahahahaha, yes we have the biggest and greatest pack on paper, and even have enough "reserve" star fowards to fill first team of any other team, but they lacked discipline and direction last year... no halves combination. if campese plays at least 3/4 of the season i bet they finish top 6. if not ahaha bottom 3.
