AFL promo music in the late 90s

[usalion]

Figuring this might be the place to pose this- back in the late 1990s, the AFL did a musical promo with a female singer. It was on the lines of the NFL bit "Are You Ready for some Football." For the life of me, I can't remember the singer or the tune. Does anyone remember that- and is there a video of it available. I'm thinking it was 1997 or 1998.

Thanks!

I believe this is what you're on about...?



How good is it?! Bring it back Channel 7!

That's the one- though I really prefer the one from the year before, which I found here....

Ahh, exactly the type of clouded nostalgia that has given us 'Satdee Arvo', Michael Bay camerawork and glorious SD.

Seven's entire coverage was s**t in the past. Is s**t in the present. Will be s**t in the future.

And the masses can be relied upon to eat it up, yum yum.

 

[DelishDockers]

Sorry Tribey - the sort of "clouded nostalgia" like when your team had some form of promise or positivity about it? Just kidding. But it is good... Better than the hollow meaningless promo drivel we get from 7 now (yum yum perhaps but the majority like it)... what's wrong with that?

If it is s**t in the past, present, or future that must mean you've kept watching it throughout - yet it hasn't deterred you from viewing it?

Brings back memories! Thanks for posting.

dont' like it... very cringeworthy and an NFL Monday Night Football rip-off

Ch 7 have had better footy themes in the past

Flawless logic.

I'd watch games I have an interest in if they were aired on Channel31 or Fox News.

I forgot about this. Shameless NFL rip.

Holy s**t that was terrible. I must have blocked it out of my mind along with the rest of the 99 season.

"The name of the game is australian". Circa 1993-1994, far and away the GOAT!

Nah that was from Game Day after the Footy Panel (which we got on delay and sometimes truncated up here if there was a 1PM game, instead we had either a Rugby League panel show or a Rugby Union wrap at 11AM).

Anyone remember this classic?

And this shocker (about 1999/2000 I think)

I actually liked this one. Was the better of the non-traditional themes. Just ignore that a boy band did it.
