we have one.  hells bells.  

 I'm rolling thunder, pouring rain
I'm coming on like a hurricane
My lightning's flashing across the sky
You're only young, but you're gonna die
I won't take no prisoners, won't spare no lives
Nobody's putting up a fight
I got my bell, I'm gonna take you to hell
I'm gonna get ya, Satan get ya

 

Hi there Sharkie. Again though it caters for a particular demographic that likes heavy metal.

I didn’t know those bells were from a song until a mate pointed it out to me. When I hear them I’m expecting the cry of “bring out you’re dead ! ” to follow.

I just love the menace in the words, the thumping riffs, the base and drums.  Turn it up as loud as possible.  Run through brick wall stuff.

I get a similar feeling  when I hear Bullet The Blue Sky off The Joshua Tree album live. Without the running through a brick wall bit though ! 


I’m an Arsenal fan and won’t be singing you’ll never walk alone as it’s Liverpool’s song 

We’ve already got one that I sing at the end of the game (never at the start, it’s an omen)

I also find it strange but am struggling with the metaphor ( although a great clip) !

Not the reaction from Demonland that I had hoped for . 

A bugler is on my to do list . Contacted the cheer squad as they had one but crickets . Hard to smuggle into the G as you need approval from the AFL . I also need their approval to print 1000's of pamphlets to promote the charities QR codes and web addresses . If I sought approval for the Apollo Mission I would need the ok from the AFL , MFC , Cheer Squad , Demonland and wife ( no one likes others meddling in their business ) and it would never get done . Like commissioning a new song .

We need to keep finding outside ideas to help our team . Think Burgess , Williams and Yze . The song is the best pre game song . People come from around the world to hear it sung at Anfield and will do the same at the G . The Dees deserve the best !

Cant get passed status for replying to messages . Tech dinosaur .

It is not Liverpool's song ! That is like saying I Dreamed a Dream is Susan Boyles song .

We need an Aussie song and it's funny because I have been toying with this very thing. 

Parkway Drive is an Aussie band and we could get them to do a special production for us. 

Song is called Dedicated and you just need to adjust a couple words in the song.

For years I've fought for this
For years, our heart still beats
For the ones who've stood beside us
Still strong, you can't break us

You should know by now
Here comes whats next Through blood, sweat, tears
We're still here
 
Unbreakable!!!

And yes it's very heavy so there maybe a few horrified. 

Ahh but it's all in fun.

 

 

 


Hi everyone, what did I miss?

David Birdie should be commissioned to provide our unique anthem.

He has an uncanny ability to produce deeply emotional and evocative music to match lyrics.

Agreed 

This whole idea is ludicrous 

Norm’s Curse can only be lifted in Late September/October

I am a passionate supporter . My wife comes from a good Dee family . Gawny was amazed that my older daughter went to what games at Etihad . Jim Stynes was amazed that my younger daughter had been a member for 9 years when she was 8 . Ron Barassi calls me the other Hutchy .

I would really appreciate a sensible discussion as , at the moment , I am thinking I might have to go up to Level 4 to minimize embarrassment . I did go up the back once 39 years ago to have a joint ( can I say that ? ) .

Happy to rank the suggested songs and have a vote . 

I’m an Everton supporter last thing I want to do is sing a Liverpool song - not to mention that it’s too main stream and too over done. (NEXT)

It is ludicrous to mention the curse . As I have said it was a fun way to get attention not discussion .

Stand up Sir and leave the discussion if you find it a waste of your time .

I don't like the idea of recycling someone else's identity. Oldest professional football club in the world, let's not borrow songs from another club.

It's a great pre game song, really gets the blood racing.

I’m at a bar called Nice Guys in Victoria St, Richmond and literally any song on the mix tape they have on  atm could be our anthem. Lots of Stranglers, Madness, The Jam, The Clash, New Order etc. Anyway....back to the pre-game drinks in the sun. See you all at the G later ?

Yes, Singing “You will never Walk Alone” is such an original idea. 
it is bound to catch on

I am another Gooner and i will not be singing a rivals song


  • Author

Looking forward to hearing your suggestion for song NEXT . Do you think it important we have one ?

As I said above saying YNWA is a Liverpool song is like saying I Dreamed A Dream is Susan Boyles song .

  • Author

Many original ideas are very popular today Sir . Think about Never Tear Us Apart . That was not an " original idea " .

YNWA is not a rivals song YET . 

Now for some positive reinforcement

Positive - well done I like the idea of a song

Negative - crap song choice 

Positive - um well done I like the idea of a song 

oops - used the same positive twice - my bad

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
