Over the years rugby league has seen some amazing teams dominate the competition for periods of time.
Although some of these teams did not win the premiership every single year of their dominant form, it is hard to dispute the impact they had in the game.
The following teams, in no particular order, are some of the greatest to ever play the game. Don't forget to comment your opinion below!
Fear the Red V (St. George Dragons 1955-1966)
It would be pretty hard to write a list about rugby league dynasties and not include arguably the dynasty to end all dynasties.
For 11 years most of rugby league's older fan base would tell you the Dragons “terrorised” the competition (except for Dragons fans of course).
To be fair to the Dragons, it would be pretty difficult to defeat a side that boasts some of the greatest names to ever grace the game, with names such as Norm Provan, Reg Gasnier, John Raper and Graeme Langlands donning the red V during this time.
Although they did win 11 in a row there is one grand final victory during this time that stands out. That grand final is the 1963 grand final where the Dragons scrapped out a low scoring win against the Western Suburbs Magpies in a muddy affair with the famous picture of Norm Provan and Arthur Summons being captured post game, which in later years has become the design for the NRL’s premiership trophy.
