💔🐓 ROOSTERS MOURN A TRUE CLUB LEGEND: JOHN BELL REMEMBERED WITH LOVE AND HONOUR 🐓💔

 

The Sydney Roosters community is in deep mourning following the passing of one of their most cherished former players, John Bell, who sadly left us yesterday. A proud representative of the red, white, and blue, Bell’s name is etched forever in the history and heart of the Roosters family.

 

John Bell was more than just a player — he was a gentleman of the game, a loyal teammate, and a symbol of enduring passion for rugby league. Joining the Roosters during a golden era of grit and camaraderie, Bell embodied the fighting spirit that has long defined the club. His commitment, courage, and consistency on and off the field earned him not just the respect of his teammates, but the admiration of generations of fans who followed in his footsteps.

 

In a heartfelt statement, the Sydney Roosters expressed their deepest condolences to Bell’s family and friends, describing him as “a man whose contribution to the club and community will never be forgotten.” The club also reflected on his legacy — a legacy built on humility, hard work, and an unbreakable bond with the tricolours.

 

From the terraces of the old Sydney Sports Ground to the bright lights of today’s NRL, John Bell’s influence continues to inspire players who proudly wear the Roosters crest. His story serves as a reminder that true greatness is not only measured by victories on the scoreboard, but by the character and love one gives to the game and its people.

 

Rest peacefully, John Bell — a Rooster forever. ❤️🐓🙏
