    Maybe it is being done by the club.
    yes i contacted the club about this and they said they would fix it at AAMI... obviously didn't check the other grounds which i asked them to do

    let's all contact the club to ensure the proper club song (the traditional one that is currently played at the SCG by the fable singers - not the shocker recorded in the 90s that has incorrect wording) is played at ALL grounds around Aus BEFORE and (hopefully) after the game

    'Up There...' goes down like the proverbial lead balloon

    Now THEM's was some horrible times.
    But what about "Dare to be a Bear", which we all sung at the Ansett Cup when Brizzie won?!

    Or even worse, when Australian played Israel in soccer back in the early 90s. The song they played over the tannoy....(wait for it)................................. "Deutschland Deutschland ueber alles")

    Will somebody be contacting the Crows/SANFL/Aami Stadium trust to ensure we get the right version in a couple of weeks?

    You would think that because the AFL is very professional now that these type of things wouldn't happen. Unfortunately they still do. Maybe what all the clubs could do is send a tape of the song that they wish to be played everywhere to every single ground. Also, I wonder how the ground played "Deutschland Deutschland etc." for a Australia and Israel game?

    Charlie, it was bloody ordinary mate. Refusing to cheer, not singing the club song, moping and whinging throughout the last quarter.

    Remember mate, these were the games we LOSING last year.

    I'm happier with the win now. But I'm not going to be ashamed that I was angry at them for blowing a perfectly good chance to thrash a side. It shouldn't have happened, and I DON'T cheer and clap when I'm dissappointed with them. You don't like it? Fine. That's just the way I am. If I'm not in the mood to cheer them... I won't do it.

    Sure, it's still an improvement on last year... but I saw worrying signs on Saturday that this club could limp into the finals once again, and be blasted out. I don't want that to happen. I'm not expecting a premiership... but I want to see at least an honest account of ourselves... and an appearance in the second/third weeks of the finals would be that.

    But Leo WE LOVE YOU!

    Don't forget the time that Brisbane ran out onto the SCG to We Are The Navy Blues.

    We havent heard that in Melbourne for many many years IIRC.

    I thought that song is dead an buried!?

    Do they still play that song in Sydney folks??

    NOT HAPPY JAN!
    I noticed that too. But at the end they got it right.
