Eels to be blessed with Spectacle?

Posted by Parra Dude on August 6, 2009 at 12:58am
I apologise to ask the question, but would it seem to brash to say that we lack a bit of character at our home games... I'm first to say that I can't get their often but when I do I feel a little disillusioned by it all... Consider games against our various opponents (go eels!)...The Broncos - 50K+ stadium... a little hard 2 compete I know!The Bulldogs - That "soughta" cool bulldog head they enter the field with (boo dogs...).The Sea Eagles - Score a try... Play "The Eagle Rock"... Shites ya!Three of our worst enemies, I know but worthy for example...I say we add a bit of character too our games too...Example - The Sea Eagles play Eagle Rock... We use the chorus to "Electric Feel" by MGMT... Maybe not the best example but trying to make a point!Go the Eels!!!

    They could do a 100ft inflatable Eel. Imagine running through all of that. cue the tkbk dialogue for hilarity that would ensue.

    we could start with a decent ground announcer who actually informs the crowd whats going on at stages of the game!

    I love that song. What a dickhead our ground announcer is. He mixed up Hindy and Cayless at Hindy's 250th.

    How about the chorus from "Yellow and Blue" that would get the crowd vibed up!

      I just listened to this, not too bad at all, very patriotic. Would not use that version though. Get someone to do a cover version, maybe Grothe or Shannon Noll (I hear he's a Parra supporter) but not too sure he'd do it justice.

    I agree as when I attend other home games they seem to have an edge when it comes to building the atmosphere.

    Earlier today I was doing a rough draft of an email intended for Paul Osbourne as I feel he may listen unlike fitzy the twat.

    The people we need to learn from are the english as they seem to have good supporters with teams that don't always perform.

    Let's all come up with a list of suggestions to help build our team financially as well as making the home game experience better.
