2018 version is the unequivocal best version for game day, but wise men from the east and merry hell are immense, so re-record the 1987 version in the 2018 horns and all style thx xoxo

I might be in the minority but can't stand Eagle Rock.
Its's serious RETIREMENT VILLAGE, laid back, chill, it's-more-than-winning, "everyone calm down we don't want to get too excited and amped up now" vibes...
Mr Eagle

That's my point though. It's what you play AFTER the club song has been gone through two or three times. It really is "music to leave the ground happy to".

I said I hated it too lol.
It should be retired ASAP.
I hate it because back when I used to work in functions here in Brisbane, one of the universities had a thing where all the blokes would drop their pants and sway their hips the the entirety of Eagle Rock, every time it was played. it was even in their constitution that security at the Uni bar couldn't do anything to blokes who did this in the bar.
Lame.

So the hey Eagles one sang the chorus too softly.
The current one and the OG took too long to get to the chorus.
I reckon you just play the chorus of the OG on repeat 2 times, it's the best version

Yeah uni thing here too.
Was at a wedding a few months ago and someone came around to us saying “Eagle Rock on soon boys, come on let’s go”. Literally nobody joined in, just one bloke against the world doing the pants down eagle rock schtick. Was hilariously sad.

Sorry, if you don't drop your pants when Eagle Rock plays, you are the weird one.
Yeah I really wish they didn’t try to incorporate it as a sort of secondary anthem. Play it later on, it’s a bloody joke
You were the one bloke weren’t you
Well there you go
I've literally never witnessed this and heard the song probably a million times
Still like the song thoug
The drums at the start of our circa 2006 song need to come back. That banging around Optus would be something else after a win.

Yeah some of the WAFLW clubs do it too. Makes no sense to me.

Would 100% have been right in there with him. Disgraceful that he was left solo - do better Australia.
That's an Australian wide thing now. Started I'm Canberra apparently. Yes, I've done it several times too.
Eagle rock is a kindergarten song and that’s where it should be played. Get rid of it.
Mix the original with the 2018 version and that will be fine.
Must say though hearing the original song last Friday was bloody awesome.

That’s a pretty common trend all over the world with that song. We (as in the local club I used to play for) did it at our B&F night after a few too many Ultra Delicious Lemonades
