Gday fellow Roosters fans,
Wondering if you would like our name to reflect more on our great club's past. I suggest we go by the name of: East Sydney Roosters.
This name strengthens ties with the past eg: East and also better informs of our locality with maintaining the "Sydney" part.
I've heard suggestions about reverting back to Eastern Suburbs but this is counterproductive as the competition is in Australasia nowadays, and locality recognition is much better seved by having "East Sydney Roosters" .To be honest, I cringe when I hear our club referred to as the "Sydney Roosters". It's not an apt description and does lead to confusion from new fans to the game.
