Celebrating Ron Coote:
The Ron Coote Cup is a trophy named after the legendary Ron Coote AM, which will be presented to the winning team at full time. The winner is determined by the aggregate scores across both regular season games played between the clubs each year.
Ron Coote AM will be celebrated at this Friday’s game with a lap of honour around Accor Stadium before kick-off in the new MG Cyberster all electric roadster, including video packages and an interview for the crowd attending the match.
Mr Coote will also deliver the match ball prior to kick off, with the Rabbitohs inviting the Roosters to join them in forming a guard of honour for the winner of six premierships from nine Grand Final appearances for both clubs during his 15-year playing career. The Rabbitohs will be joined by past players of the Club in the guard of honour as they celebrate Old Boys Day at Accor Stadium, along with members of Mr Coote’s family, and young footballers representing Mr Coote’s junior club, Kensington United.
The Rabbitohs lock forward in this game will wear the famous number eight jersey worn by Mr Coote throughout his playing career, a career which earned him the moniker the ‘Prince of Locks’. The gold eight which will be on the jersey for this match signifies the reverence in which Mr Coote is held at the South Sydney Rabbitohs, who now stands alongside his former premiership-winning coach, Clive Churchill AM, as the Rabbitohs’ second Immortal.
For Members and supporters heading to Accor Stadium on Friday night, 5,000 collectible Ron Coote posters will be handed out to the first 5,000 people through the gates.
