winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11

In fairness the Bulls pack looks strong this year. Morrison is as good as any in this league, Menzies is class, even if past his very best now, Burgess and Lynch are both players I rate pretty highly. Newton's still a good player on his day, although the alance seems to have shifted from often brilliant but occasional liability towards the reverse....
The real shortfall in the Bulls squad at present, as I see it (and you've all seen more than me obviously), is in the halves and centres. Deacon is still a good player, but is really more a kicker than an attacking half back and can't really carry that complete burden himself. Jeffries can be good on his day, as he showed at Wakey, but doesn't seem to be having many of those days at the moment.
