Ok. There's a ton of threads and posts floating around covered in negative slimy glue, going on about how useless they think Pearce is, or how Uncle Nick should step down or that Smithy needs to be sacked........
But really, apart from the trolls and the chicken brained evolutionary disasters who support other clubs, we have joined this forum because we love Easts.
So to shun this fog of negativity here is a bubbly thread for us to discuss what we love about the Roosters
1) The Uniform. Less now that it's covered in logos, but it's a great outfit. The red and white V on a blue background, with hoops on the sleeves, white shorts with the blue and red stripe on their side, and those glorious socks.....we have the best uniform in rugby league
2) The history. The only club to have played in every single season of first grade rugby league in Australia. 12 premierships. More aussie internationals than any other club. Most wins in first grade. 38-0. 19 wins in a row. This club is the most prestigous in Australia.
3) The great players. From DallyM to Dave "The Bradman of League" Brown, Ray Stehr, Artie, Big Jack (more of a coach than a player), Ronnie Coote, Horrie, Freddy, Fitzy........some all time greats have worn our colours
4) We did not sign with sewer league. Pretty self explanatory. We did not succumb to the megabucks that News LTD were offering. We stayed loyal to the ARL. If not for this (and Manly's loyalty too) the ARL would have died.
5) Our rich reputation. I love this. Lesser clubs look to us and see our dollars. Uncle Nick as Chairman, Gyng and others close by. Based in the most affulent suburbs in Sydney. Whoever we want to sign, we get (except for Bennett). Others look at this money and power as if it's a bad thing, but really it's a great thing. Drinking lattes is sure better than drinking metho like souffs fans, shit bourbon like the bogans out west, xxxx like the banana benders....
So what do you love about Easts?
