Having studied it to the extent that I have had to in my professional career, I would say we all benefit from it. The sad thing is though it is exploited for the benefit of those who really don't deserve it at times.

Tbh I tend to agree with what you say, although the impression people get tends to come from the media, with only stupid cases reported. What it has done is cut down the amount of money spent taking ludicrous cases to the ECHR only to have government policy overturned.

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
