In a blessing for the game they play in heaven, a whole legion of fans are about to tune in at just the right time!
That’s right, the sport of Rugby Union just got a whole lot more popular in Sydney, after the entire Roosters supporter base decided to jump across codes.
With the Lions Tour in full swing, and the first Test against the Wallabies just 11 days away, the huge numbers of people from the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney and rich kids from the bush are now preparing to go all in on the RaRa.
This follows the Sydney Roosters loss to the Wests Tigers on Sunday, marking the first win for the battling team in nearly 2 months.
While it’s relieved pressure on the Orange and Black Organisation, it’s seen the Tri-Colours from the Bondi deserted in droves.
“Yeah, it’s timed pretty well actually,” explained Hugo Berrington this morning.
“Means I can stop pretending I like the neckless noble savages, and enjoy a nice glass of Red with my footy.”
“And enjoy a few sing alongs rather than simply chanting ‘EASTSSSSSSS.'”
The mass migration of Roosters fans has also timed perfectly with the Sydney Swans playing some rather shit footy this year as well.
The scarves and puffer vests of the mighty Bloods have resigned themselves to their fate this year, after a rather underwhelming finish to 2024.
That culminated in a bumper crowd for the Waratahs plucky performance agains the Lions on Saturday, and is set to see a chock-a-block crowd getting out for the decider at Sydney Olympic Park.
“Ughhhhh, it’s such a pain getting out there,” laughed Berrington.
“Costs a pretty penny in an Uber, but what do you do.”
