i think its a bit rich every one bagging on the cheer squad cause they are soo soft and quiet if thats the case then start your own nosie in your section the fact is when we watch any saints game on TV over here we cant hear any saints fans be it cheer squad or the rest of crowd . the rest of the stadium out number the cheersquad by a huge % but you ony hang crap on the CS :roll:

This has been posted before and of course I loathe Tottenham but this is brilliant.......
Trouble with chanting is that it can degenerate to be highly offensive. Tottenham are a case in point with versions of "one man went to mow" and "Tottenham are on their way to Wembley" aimed at Tottenham fans.

Foul Language chants like "my old man said be a Tottenham fan" or "The ****** Tottenham Hotspur went to rome to see the pope" would probably get you chucked out of telstra dome too.

I think the nature of each individual game determines the amount of passion from the fans.
Soccer's advantage over AFL is that the lower scoring means both teams are a second away from going in front or drawing level so it's more on a knife edge, hence tension in the crowd = excitement. In a lot of AFL games, teams get blown away, more goals means more of a gap, too much caviar and it ceases to be special.
None the less i have enjoyed many a final a quarter, thats where the excitement lies if the scores are close.
Another point the AFL set up is very good over the Soccer A league at the moment. Soon as the A league expands to 16 clubs and there are say 4 or so clubs in melbourne, then i would consider going to the A leaugue. At the moment too few clubs and just Melbourne Victory. (i can't stand their fans) It need's teams that appeal to all of the Melbourne population.

sorry to tell you, but the cheer squad isnt made up of 6500 male drunks!
we have 400 members, but only get given 200 seats each week.
Mate, I wasn't bagging the cheer squad, I was just sharing a great clip I thought people may be interested in.

The bad advice that has guided the selfish and culpable James Hird has not only punctuated this saga but symbolised it..."

You dont need chants at the footy because there is action all time. Soccer needs them because most games are boring. I love it when they talk at about the atmophere at soccer but never the game. In footy we talk about the game which is exciting not the stupid atmophere.
Absolutely agree :lol:

Chanting or singing at the footy is "Unaustralaian".


The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules. 
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!
