Would that exclude Artie and coote as legends because they came from tigers and bunnies? Horrie has to be in any conversation as a roosters legend he was our best player for a long time when we had a very good team

As I mentioned in my original post “since 1987”.

Nope I still don’t get it. He came from somewhere else. Just because that somewhere else wasn’t an NRL club, I don’t see how that makes him anymore of a legend than Freddy or Fitzy who started younger and played a lot more games.

The legends I mentioned all came from somewhere else too if you want to get that specific.

I had a listen to Hughie - so well spoken with so much respect for those at our club. One of the best interviews Ive had the pleasure to listen to.

I guess a legend of a club, in my opinion, is of where that player had his most success and with which club he associates himself most. Fitzy May have come form stgeorge Illawarra but he had his success at the roosters and still is associated with it and you can see the passion he has for the club. Freddy may have had some success at Penrith but most of his success came in our club and today is the most ardent supporter of the Roosters in the media. If I’m not wrong he did express that he was a fan as young boy too. It may be the same with Teddy as he’s one of the best at the moment and he’s always loved the club so if he keeps going he will be long remembered as a legend, BUT I get your views.
