The St George Illawarra Dragons say they don’t care what you think and why should they?

They are currently at the top of the NRL table.

Unsung hero Mike Cooper told nrl.com the Dragons always had the belief.

“When you’re playing for the Dragons the media is on you more than you care it to be, which is a shame really,” Cooper said.

“We were fairly confident in what we’re all about and slowly that talk is disappearing,” Cooper said.

“It can be a fickle sport sometimes and people wrote us off so it’s good to prove people wrong. In saying that, we don’t care what anybody else says so we’ll continue looking after one another in-house.”

They play the Sydney Roosters this Saturday in the annual ANZAC blockbuster.
