Imagine being from one of the best parts of Sydney that everyone wants to visit when they come to Australia and then not using that name ?
The Roosters are Sydney's team though like the Sydney Swans, Sydney Sixers, Sydney FC who are all based in the Eastern Suburbs.

The Rooster's club is in Bondi Junction

If you look at real estate sites, they sneakily have other non-Eastern Suburbs areas listed as being in the "Eastern Suburbs"

Nah. “Sydney” implies all of greater “Sydney”. Travesty that in a comp with 8/9 Sydney clubs one is named “Sydney”.

Roosters are a Syd cbd club. Known to most as The eastern part of greater Syd.

mmm do people in other states know where the eastern suburbs are in Sydney or know where Wests Tigers come from.

They will always be Eastern Suburbs to most RL supporters.

And yes their current logo is awful. Probably the worst in the comp now that the Broncos have changed theirs.
Surely an updated version of the classic Eastern Suburbs logo isn't too far away.

Yep the roosters logo is very early 2000s. Need to do something there.

at least they should just use their simplified alternate logo as their main logo without all those stars:

Gees Brisbane's logo is an absolute shocker - can't even tell what the word even says as it looks like arisbane and what animal is it as it doesn't look like any modern-day animal - doesn't even mention Broncos on the logo

You can tell the Roosters are Sydney Roosters - far and away the best logo

Perth Bears is an interesting choice…

i had in mind West Coast Bears or WA Bears would be picked (a bit more general)

Interesting, while VFL now has West Coast and Fremantle, only NRL will represent “Perth”
IIRC PVL and Abdo were very clear about the requirement of the team being called Perth around the time of the official announcement.

Perth Bears new logo

Perth Bears new logo

“Eight ‘points’ around the head, eight top teeth … they play to the 1908 foundations of Norths and the 1948 formation of the WA Rugby League.”


“Not many people realise that the original logo, which had been around since 1978, was based off the poster from a 1976 B-grade horror movie called Grizzly,” he said.
“But there were people who felt the old version looked too surprised. So I made the adjustments to make sure he looks a bit more ferocious.”
The Perth bosses were on board.

The post read simply: “Sensational!”
The North Sydney Bears logo launched in 1978 was based on a poster from 1976 B-grade horror movie Grizzly.

Perth Scorchers
Perth Wildcats
Perth Glory
Perth Lynx
Perth Demons

Perth Bears probably sky rocket to the top of the list or at very least meet the Scorchers.

If it was based on that poster, it explains why the old logo looked a bit lopsided (especially when viewed in a mirror)...
