Speacking of the Richmond song, used at the 100th yr game against Carlton, this verison of the song has a way better beat to it much like the up beat Coburg song.

Herd the Fitzroy song once, I was 6. My first Richmond game. Round 21 1996. Richmond thrashing them and I remember the Richmond song being played then the emotional look of Fitzroy fans as the Fitzroy song was blasted out at the MCG for the last time as there players left the ground. First time Ive herd it since.

Fitzroy is no longer with us. Was it bad Karma they chose the tune of the French national anthem, a country of dogs which rolled over, surrendered twice to the Germans, then turned it's back on the recent Oil War in Iraq?

Win or lose, we'll do or die
In defeat, we'll always try

It seems a strange, defeatist set of lyrics for a footy song.
Still, it shits all over the "You'll Hear Our Mighty Roar" abortion.

RIP Fitzroy

La Marseillaise is the anthem of an entire revolution you schmuck.

Read a translation of the lyrics and I challenge you not to get goosebumps.

Reading a history book or two wouldn't hurt either.

Arise children of the fatherland
The day of glory has arrived
Against us tyranny's
Bloody standard is raised
Listen to the sound in the fields
The howling of these fearsome soldiers
They are coming into our midst
To cut the throats of your sons and consorts

To arms citizens Form your battalions
March, march
Let impure blood
Water our furrows

What do they want this horde of slaves
Of traitors and conspiratorial kings?
For whom these vile chains
These long-prepared irons?
Frenchmen, for us, ah! What outrage
What methods must be taken?
It is us they dare plan
To return to the old slavery!

What! These foreign cohorts!
They would make laws in our courts!
What! These mercenary phalanxes
Would cut down our warrior sons
Good Lord! By chained hands
Our brow would yield under the yoke
The vile despots would have themselves be
The masters of destiny

Tremble, tyrants and traitors
The shame of all good men
Tremble! Your parricidal schemes
Will receive their just reward
Against you we are all soldiers
If they fall, our young heros
France will bear new ones
Ready to join the fight against you

Frenchmen, as magnanimous warriors
Bear or hold back your blows
Spare these sad victims
That they regret taking up arms against us
But not these bloody despots
These accomplices of Bouillé
All these tigers who pitilessly
Ripped out their mothers' wombs

We too shall enlist
When our elders' time has come
To add to the list of deeds
Inscribed upon their tombs
We are much less jealous of surviving them
Than of sharing their coffins
We shall have the sublime pride
Of avenging or joining them

Drive on sacred patriotism
Support our avenging arms
Liberty, cherished liberty
Join the struggle with your defenders
Under our flags, let victory
Hurry to your manly tone
So that in death your enemies
See your triumph and our glory!

Well done.

A 150 point win over a team about to go under is about the only thing Richmond have achieved in 30 years

 

[bigpapagman]

you will find in the last 30 years we have won a flag.

also, i wasn't so much happy about flogging them by so much, as i was them not beating us.

 

[Tim the Toolman]

What! These foreign cohorts!
They would make laws in our courts!
What! These mercenary phalanxes
Would cut down our warrior sons
Good Lord! By chained hands

Was that verse referring to the Oakley and the AFL?

If it weren't for you blokes they might still be around. You guys have blood on your hands over their death,

Your team voted for the Brisbane merger over the North Melb merger.

Plenty of bloody hands all-round.

The theme song says they wore maroon and blue - but in anyone's memory they wore red, yellow and blue - which is what Victorian Lions supporters identify with. Could the chopping and changing of their identity have been part of their downfall?

What the hell are you talking about?
