It's got a bit of "heart beats true" about it too

 

The Wolf of Wall Street was funded by stolen money from the Malaysian government. (1MDB)

Ex PM finally started a 12 year prison stretch last night.

OK @WalkingCivilWar and others from the Demon Army:

the players are doing this after a win:

 

Can the Army start it it the crowd so that it becomes our mark

What a great idea! I’m gonna suggest it right now on our WhatsApp chat!!! 

 

I dunno about this idea… it’s the players’ thing and I believe they do it if they keep the opposition below 60 points.
 

Would love to see it once in the crowd with 2 minutes left in a grand final we’re about to win but I feel if we see it done 5 times a week in the crowd it kinda cheapens a concept they clearly bond around.

Agree It's  the players private celebration 

Supporters can do it any time they want after a win etc. 

Inspiring 


Memory is a little foggy from the broadcast, but didn't they say it was more about winning and keeping the oppo under 60 points? I think it might have been Nathan Jones who talked about it pre-game somewhere.

 

I’m concerned about bruising my prominent pecs

Maybe it's just me, but that would have seemed a more appropriate celebration for the 2006 West Coast Eagles to engage in considering the contents of what Matthew McConaughey spoke about in that restaurant.

That said, I reckon we should do it if we knock off the Filth. Rightly or wrongly, they consider us bourgeoise scum. I say we throw that back in their face in a manner they hate.

100% it was this.

well actually 99% it was this - I think it was 63 points (as their average)...anyway, it wasn't the win, it was the defensive effort they celebrated.

I read the book before the movie came out. Great read, ordinary movie.

Personally, like the Dogs and "Freed From Desire", it's best kept out of the public's eye.

Yeah, great to see it but I'd have preferred it kept under wraps.
Surprised they left the door open TBH.

Diamond - was that funding for the movie or for the wolf himself?

Love our team song, hate the delivery.  What I mean by this is that music that accompanies the words and the way it is sung is so 1950ish for the want of better words. It is so last century, tired , old, way past its use by date. Not inspiring at all. I’m an old bugger and I reckon it’s old!

Please don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t change one word, it’s perfect, in fact I believe it should never ever be changed.  It’s just the delivery.

When our boys ‘sing’ it in the rooms after a big win it is like a war cry, a chant, bearing no resemblance to what is played over the PA system at the G that we try and sing to. 


I love hearing some of our younger crew belting out the words on train going home after a big win. The tempo that they deliver it in is exactly how team belts it out. Sounds great.

Would love to see some professional musicians bring the ‘tune’ into the 21st century. The formula is already there, up the tempo, modernise the music  so that it matches what our boys do. That way it would be a powerful chant that we could get going at the end of the game.

Could you imagine if the music was modified and played on the PA after a win at the G. I could really imagine the vast majority of our supporter base ripping into the ‘chant’ (rather than try and ‘sing’ it).   Combine it with beating our hearts. It could be our new trade mark.  It would be magnificent and intimidating all at the same time.  (Bit like the INXS theme that Port do at the start of their home games, it is just so effective).

If you don’t like the idea and think it should all stay the way it had been, all good.

Ah yes, 'modern' theme songs, what could go wrong....

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
