We won the flag in 2004, and, out of a sudden, our wheels fell off. We have never been the same since. I have finally understood the reason.
It was in my face all the time. Amazing that I haven't realized this before. The issue is in the team song!
The song says:
"We'll never stop, stop, stop
'Til we're top, top, top"
Pay attention to it. It says that we won't stop UNTIL we are top.
It is the same as saying that once we are top, we stop. Why on Earth should we stop? Still, that's precisely what we did.
We must reach the top and stay there for as long as we can. We would never win six flags in a row otherwise. Still, after every win, we keep repeating those words. That's not right! Worse, it has affected us.
So, for our club's sake, in order to avoid repeating what happened after 2004, I come here to propose a change on the lyrics. The song should say:
"We'll never stop, stop, stop
'CAUSE we're top, top, top"
This simple modification would make the team song to be more attuned to the ethos of the Port Adelaide Football Club. It would have a pedagogical effect on the people that are part of the club; especially on players and coaches.
I believe the #bringbackthebars movement should embrace my proposal due the shared spirit between these noble causes.
Thank you all for your attention.
