I was at the Eels v Tigers game on friday and the atmosphere was a little up and down despite a good display by the Eels and just short of 20k there. Always surprises me how the Aussie crowds fail to turn up the volume when their team is attacking close to the line, whereas i'm bellowing my lungs out.
Went to see a few Bears games when I first got to Aus and although the quality was good I couldnt help feeling a little depressed at the lack of support in the stadium for this once great club. Hopefully the next round of franchises (dirty-diirrty word) will redress that.

to be fair the Bunnies and the Dragons fans are quite vocal for over here and have rehashes of English songs for their sides.
In fact there was a lovely thing recently as the Newtown Jets and even some junior rep sides victory song is the Barmy Army song. As in "everywhere we go" etc. I recently saw on facebook a female dragons fan tell a newtown official that it was "stolen off the dragons army!!" Bless.

Mount Smart has the best atmosphere of the NRL grounds I have been to so far.

Unlikey defender of the Pies coming in peace
I was at the Quins game Saturday, Wigan fans never shut up, sang roughly 7 or 8 different songs throughout too.

Make sure you go to the final Leichhardt match. It will be sold out though.

I was a pommie at Shark Park on Saturday and the atmosphere was pretty good, though not as good as the week before when the Bunnies were in town...
and the club song rattling round the stadium when we win is Gooooood!!!

Was just thinking that myself. Were do people think up these myths at all?? Im sure more or less every team had limited songs in the 80s/early 90s. Id say wigan now have the most songs, by quite some distance.

| You watch the last State of Origin match and the commentators sound actually stunned by the fact the crowd are cheering. I think that says it all.
I fully agree, their skill and rugby standard is better than SL...but watching the games you could hear a pin drop - I for one don't like that, a roaring crowd is far better than a boring one all wearing matching shirts and baseball caps  |

On a slight tangent, are the Manly cheerleaders as good as I've led to believe?

We have about 6-7 new songs just for this season I think! We had a few last year as well. No idea why most fans have a dig at Wigan when most fans sing 'we love you..... we do' and '....till i die, I know I am, I'm sure I am...'
Even a Warrington fan says we didn't shut up all game on saturday! |
