If my grandmother had wheels she would be a bicycle

She still did pretty well running all that way in the Tour De France with someone on her back

Don’t care for NRL but I image the South Sydney Rabbitohs would have really loved them coming in and taking that name.

What about the Sydney Roosters?
I'm sure they were happy about an Aussie Rules team moving in and adopting the Sydney name.

The club was founded in 1908 in Paddington, Sydney, as Eastern Suburbs; in 1995 the club's name was changed to the Sydney City Roosters, and in 2000 to the Sydney Roosters.

No.

Should have merged North and South, then relocated them to WA, then merged them with East Fremantle.
