NRL Irrational Mergers - 6. St George

Hyper Thetic RL

Episode 6 - Return of the V

The once might men in the V venture forth to join forces and reclaim their dominance.

In this episode of the NRL Irrational Mergers mini series I am joined by Signor Carbone from the Chasing Kangaroos podcast. The year is 1998, the newly formed NRL set out to reduce clubs to reach the magic number of 14 by 2000. The criteria is set and the 12 Sydney and Illawarra clubs are offered $8M and other exemptions to make mergers happen. We examine the possible choices for merger partners for the Dragons.
