		The Dragons – or at least the St George half – are a part of the illustrious history of rugby league.
		The Dragons are off to a bad start this year – a loss to the Rabbitohs in the pre-season Charity Shield match, and a loss to the Bulldogs last weekend – but they are not going to be the last team to cop a hammering at the expense of the Bulldogs, the reigning premiers.
		There are many fans of the Dragons who remember the glory days when the team won 11 premierships in a row between 1956 and 1966...a record that will never be equalled.
