I reckon it would be great to see this song brought back to brookie! Although the eagle rock is great it is way overused. They should definetley play this classic at the end of game after a win as the players come around the ground. Maybe an email to the club to give them the idea?

seagull's?

LOL I heard the same. Its as bad as people calling us the "Seagles".

They also mention the Cricket Ground so very unlikely but they could change the wording or at least play it in heritage round as mentioned before.
 
What year is it? haha was good in it's day I'd imagine...
I remember the late 80's-90's manly song

Manly Warringah, soaring Sea Eagles
Manly Warringah, soaring high, soaring Sea Eagles

We're going to wiiiiiiiiin
Manly's going to win

We're going to wiiiiiiiin
Soaring high soaring Sea Eagles...

Does anyone have a copy of that one, was classic 80's version
 
The old one is available @ http://www.silvertails.net/articles/songs-and-chants along with some other good ones.

We have discussed this over the years. Not saying it is the wrong choice Dessie but the general consensus is that it doesn't pass the grade these days.
 
I would love a modern version of this to happen.

You only have to look at when Cronulla and Souffs actually do win and every man and is dog knows :

"Up, Up Cronulla"
and
"Glory, Glory to South Sydney"

The one sung by Doug Parkinson?

Sea Eagles fight for every minute
Tougher than all the rest
Sea Eagles something something something
We'll always beat the best

Manly Warringah
The Soaring Sea Eagles
Manly Warringah
The Soaring High
The Soaring Sea Eagles
 
Every now and then we have a win…..have a win

Sounds like this must have been the 1947 version after Manly split from Norths.

So it’s GUZZZLE GUZZLE GUZZLE
As we pour it down our muzzle,
And sing out the order loud and clear, 'MORE BEER',
And we will drink all night
Until we are very tired
In the shade of the Manly Leagues Club

The good old days when the cops and bankers would have been there drinking with them and then everyone drove home.

Eagle Rock is a thousand times better

At least a thousand times. This song is awful. The way I see it, contrary to Dessy's original post, Eagle Rock can never be over used. It never fails to move me everytime I hear it. If our club has an anthem then Eagle Rock is it.
 
I quite like it i remember it..😎
Whats the song the players sing in the sheds after a win ( i doubt its eagle rock)..
