Zigga Zagga Zigga Zagga OI OI OI! GO CROWS!

[treeman]

Was anybody sitting near these people at todays game? Every time Adelaide kicked a goal they chanted: 'Zigga Zagga Zigga Zagga OI OI OI! GO CROWS!'

Any reasoning behind it? Not sure if they go every week but it was a couple of adults and a few young ones.

Zig Zag Wanderer is a cool song.

Do yourself a favour and download it now.

I'm actually not real sure of it's origins but when I first started playing the roundball game in the early 90s we used to sing that after a win (so once or twice a season).

 

[Lets Beyblade]

Mmmm, sounds awful glad I wasn't near them

Haha well i guess they were at least making some sort of noise but yeah it did get kinda annoying. I would have been able to tolerate it and understand it if there was only one crows player they did it for. Would have made a lot more sense.

At my soccer game this moring a guys team on the pitch over from us sang it......... they looked a bit toolish to be honest it's something I thought I'd hear at a netball game!
when my girls soccer team wins we are just Woo! lets go to the Tonsley for a drink and that's about it!

The cheersquad do it too. Its so lame and crap.

I can definitely remember hearing it when I played in the local league but never heard it at Hindmarsh for an AUFC game. Thank god!

 

[RoosterLad]

Nup it doesn't get used by any of the groups at AUFC.

It was a song sang by a lot of junior teams after a win, it's not bad for young lads to belt something simple out after a win but it would be ridiculous if any cheer squads or anything started singing it.

 

[Paralowiepower]

Woodville and Norwood Cheer Squads use to always sing that.

 

[Macca19]

I remember hearing that at Crows/State games back in the early 90s. The zigga zagga got turned into 'aussie aussie aussie oi oi oi' at the cricket and it stuck.

Really. before half time there wasnt much noise coming from you guys.
Maybe the alcohol at half time fired you guys up to do something

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

It's a netball chant. Hear it at Etsa Park all the time. The other fave is "2, 4, 6, 8, who do we appreciate? 9, 10, 11, 12, who's the best in the world? Goooooooooooooooo... <Insert team name>!!!"

Personally prefer the rugby songs to the netball ones, like...

Drunk last night, drunk the night before
Tonight we're gonna get drunk like we've never been drunk before
Cos when we're drunk we're as happy as can be
For we are the boys of the AFC

Confirm/deny: Some members of the CSG called security on the mob at the back of the bay? Just a rumour I heard anyway...

Chief Crow - you are 75% correct.

Ill be the first to admit the alcohol does play a large part in motivation.

But its not just that.

Everybody fired up after the swearing gear.

From what i know. One member had a issue with the comments coming from there. Not a big issue. Just a whinger who shouldnt be at the footy if they dont like the odd foul word

I actually enjoyed it after that. Seemed to fire up most of the bay. Finally had a little passion to get even louder. I have no issue with the any of it as I too can let out a foul word or too (mainly directed at the umps)

grey area.

quite a few people had words with security but cannot confirm they were CSG members. quite dissapointing, regardless of your opinions of swearing and if the person did actually say that - which he didnt.

Yeah we should just sing "zigga zagga" or "adelaide clap clap clap" on repeat all day like you ladies.

Wow that is pretty soft. Point this person out to us next home game. (I can assure you I will be there next time)

and I bet your one of these fans who say stuff all at the game and make comments at the people actually doing something
