The biggest difference between Rooster and Dragon supporters is Rooster supporters follow a team that has heart, guts, tradition and the ability to make and win grand finals.
And dragon supporters...well they follow the dragons.

This pathethic crap from the Rooster's customers about our club having no heart is getting quite boring. For christ's sake, we had about a thousand players out injured this year for extended periods. Fittler missed less than five games, Barrett played five games. We beat your sorry arses on Anzac Day with three internationals out and Hassan Saleh in our side. We are inconsistent but in the main this year, they didn't lack heart. Watch a few games and you would have seen. I was critical of the Cronulla and Melbourne games late in the season but the effort has been there all along.
The ability to make grand finals. We have been to 4 in the last decade to the bandwagon's 3. We haven't bought our way into those. 3 were with sides made up of very good club footballers whilst the fourth one was tragic to say the least. We knocked your side out in 1996 and 1999 and indirectly in 2001 as well.
Tradition..... I'll just say one thing. Sydney City, Sydney, Eastern Suburbs. Not to mention the logos. And before you mention the Illawarra thing, one change since the mid 1970s is better than 3 name changes in 7 years.
And when the Roosters fall to 10th in a few years time, we will be the ones laughing hardest. Because the SFS will be empty, full of seats reserved for the rent-a-crowd bandwagon that currently resides at the club formally known as Eastern Suburbs.
