COMMERCIAL SNAPSHOT SEASON 2017 FOOTBALL After a disappointing season in 2016, The Roosters started 2017 on the right foot by winning the Auckland 9’s. The tournament win further cemented the Club as one of the most successful teams in the League as they secured the only remaining trophy the Club had yet to win. At the end of the regular season and 26 rounds of football, the Roosters finished in 2nd place booking a place in the NRL Final Series. A loss in the Preliminary Final to the North Queensland Cowboys ended the Roosters season one game short of a Grand Final appearance. After a 15th place finish in 2016, the Roosters ultimately viewed 2017 as a successful season with room for improvement. With the Club securing the services of marquee players Cooper Cronk and James Tedesco, the Roosters are well placed to go one further in 2018.

The corporate partner portfolio of the Roosters is the largest it has been in the Club’s 109 year history. Home crowd numbers increased significantly with home games at Adelaide Oval and Central Coast Stadium both boasting crowds of 20,000 plus. ANZAC Day played host to 40,000 fans resulting in a sell out for the annual fixture. Membership also experienced growth with 16,002 Members joining the Club in 2017 up from 14,450 in 2016.
