  • All Time Unbeaten Record

    Just heard them talking about this. Would have been great to be around then. Hopefully someone can knock the Roar off so we can keep our record in tact.

    Thanks Roostarz an interesting read.

    I am a football fan as well as a league fan, but naturally hope the roosters record stays intact.

    It is a great run by the roar side, but I am pretty sure there has been a number of draws by the roar in this current streak, that has to be weighed in to the overall arguement.

    It would be interesting to know the amount of draws that the Easts side had in their run between 1935/36/37

      A lot easier to go undefeated soccer than the other two codes mentioned.

      Although well done to them to do it in a time when the salary cap exists.

          It's interesting how in soccer a draw is looked upon as a positive whereas in league it tends to be looked upon as a negative.

          As Easts mentioned, whilst they are 'undefeated' in the streak, they have not actually won all their matches. From memory they have drawn a number of times.

            With the help of google

            The Easts side of !935/36/37 hold the all codes australian record with 35 games ... 4 of these games were drawn ... more than i would have thought ... the the roar are currently on 31 games undefeated ... 7 of which have been drawn.

            Most consecutive wins ...draws not included ... in NRL ... is 19 games ... held by 1975 Easts side.

            Fom memory Manlys 1997 and Canterburys 2002 came within a game of equalling this record. If memory serves me correct the roosters 1997 side protected their clubs record by stopping manlys streak. This may have been the game where gould threatened to take the roosters team off the field in protest to the refereeing in the game.

              Yeah that's the ripoff... in soccer you do regularly just draw (usually at 0-0) because both teams just shove everybody back near the goals with 1 lone striker. Then if you are lucky enough to score (usually because you are given a controversial penalty that gives you a direct boot at goal from point blank) your lone striker goes back and defends the goals, making it IMPOSSIBLE to score.

              Sorry, the round ball game is rubbish... and the lower grades (frequented by ethnic clubs who still think they're fighting WWII/various civil wars) are even more of a joke.

              What surprises me is how much the round ball amateurs get paid!!! If you play for a district them you'll get around $200 per game (although you train 2 days a week, probably smoke a lot and nobody watches the game.) All my mates who play say it's BS because certain ethnic groups have a habit of paying their community a LOT more because the dude who owns the local fruit shop/halal butcher thinks he's putting his "hard earned" drug money towards the civil war which his country lost 50 years ago.

                PS - Soccer isn't "footy"... it's still wog ball.
                Oh and before you go calling me racist, I'm a wog + a big fan of Mini, Anasta, Guerra and co... just not soccer. Never have been and never will be.

                  *facepalm*

                  That has got to be the most moronic, ill-informed post I've ever read on this site. You are legitimately delusional. Give yourself an uppercut son.
