Solemn Sloth posted:Songchat (excluding Melbourne’s because BIAS - I think we go somewhere around the top 5 personally) I quite like Melbourne’s song, although after hearing it on the Coodabeens I can’t help thinking “ It’s a grand old flag, it’ll look good on the Jag” would be more appropriate

Before the 1972 Summit Series, a journalist predicted that the USSR wouldn't beat Canada in a single game. To make it stronger he declared that if he was wrong he would eat his prediction, shredded in a bowl of borscht (he did, in fact, eat his words). Robert Walls should have to eat his prediction shredded in a Perth delicacy. Molten Iron feels about right. Schlesische fucked around with this message at 13:27 on Sep 29, 2018 |

Melbourne, GWS, Sydney, Adelaide, Freo (old version - Yeah I know) are my favs Eagles, Power, Suns, Hawks, Saints are my least favourite Richmond's is overrated imo, but still in the better half.

Are people factoring in "Never Tear Us Apart" by Inxs into their theme song calculations? What about "Buddy's kickin' screwies at the SCG"?

West Coast can then just go with Eagle Rock .

Honestly to me Freo cut the best part of their song out, the bit that modeled itself off the Song of the Volga Boatmen sounded good

This song needs a new verse and updated lyrics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycYpie31L0g Also, the first and last games of the seasons began with a five goal to none lead for the losing team, both winning teams were the current premiers.

Nah song chat So obviously Richmond etc but what I don’t get is how can Carlton such a big club can have such a pathetic wet fart of a song. It’s just depressing. Also lol to the articles about “spare a thought for gaff” “one moment of madness” gently caress off with this culture of footy players not being responsible for their actions.

Brown Paper Bag posted:The Saints should have a song by the The Saints as their song A fair few candidates - Holy Grail is usually the Hunnas song but I love the video from their weird krautrockish Perano era (at a guess it's Richard Lowenstein or someone running around with a camera at the MCG - the video dates from 1982/83 when Melbourne and Richmond were the only home teams there so it looks like the Richmond rooms there.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvM8FDkE7BQ With a bit of banjo and some changes to the lyrics, we could find a club to take it I think. I think the Wangaratta Rovers have a song based on "Click go the Shears" (they're the Hawks and play in Hawks colours but don't go with the Happy Team one, Wangaratta has too many syllables and also too much a reference to their next-door rivals) The Deadly Hume fucked around with this message at 01:30 on Sep 30, 2018 |

That Robert Walls article is exceptionally wrong headed, a lot of WC fans I know were quietly relieved that Priddis retired, and that to think a team with a spine as strong as WC that only played in a GF a few years ago would miss the finals is just silly

If he wanted his premiership medal he shouldn't have punched a teenager in the face. And on song chat: I think it's interesting that apart from Port with "Never Tear Us Apart", more teams haven't co-opted real songs as unofficial anthems. I think Richmond tried to do something with Darryl Braithwaites Horses, but it didn't stick.

Using Hells Bells is cool right up until they fade it straight into the jaunty 50s showtune that is the demons club song and it's awkward af They should use Hells Bells as the lead up to the bounce down like what the Eagles used to do with fatboy slim right here right now at subi

I think it is It's a Long Way to the Top that is played alternately with the endless Lose Yourself loop. They need a new playlist, I'm so loving sick of those two tunes.

The reason the songs fail here is because marketing looks at things like "You'll never walk alone" at Anfield, "Z-Cars" at Goodison, and "You're getting sacked in the morning" wherever Man United are playing, and decides to replicate it by running a focus group to pick the song that best matches their corporate brand, and push it through constructed events.

Nothing organically can happen in Australia, everything must be contrived by consultants and receive the blessing of the out of touch executive group of the given organisation.

Also, pies blew a 5 goal lead in a Grand Final and let the Eagles have 4 marks in a row, all in dangerous positions, with 2 minutes to go. So, you know, swings and roundabouts.

Yeah Greg Champion did a good job with the do-over. Apparently he prepped one for Port too but for some reason they decided to stick to their current nonsense.
