What do you make of West Coast's new club song?

By The Roar / Editor

For the fourth time since 1987, the West Coast Eagles have made a huge change to their club song- with the help of Australian band Birds of Tokyo.

Definitely better than our previous one, but we need our old song from the 90’s back. That was the best song.

All it needs is a complete overhaul of the music & lyrics. Maybe introduce a melody. ‘Borrow’ an existing one if necessary.

I like the Didge. Not sure about the rest of it. Seems a little out of step with the other clubs, but that isn't necessarily bad.

nope i dont like it at all, too soft and mellow. I'm glad they made an attempt to improve the anthem and i agree its well over due, however, this one sounds more like a general song on the radio , it has no guts and no victory feel about it. Now theres a West Coast ladies side will they be singing "kings" of the game? not happy

They're marketing to the converted and if everyone else is laughing brilliant for that increases the tribal aspect that is needed for a supporter base. Only opinion that matters is wce supporters cause they buy the merch and will only take one win to convert supporters who may not like it.

I'm happy with it though most other club supporters love their sea shanty, wartime, Gilbert and Sullivan ditties sung by the salvos choir and engaging in a playschool manner I find that drab, this will be enjoyed by wce supporters and hated when we inevitably win more premierships so all good.

I think the Eagles new song is Fantastic. It a very big improvement from the old and tired version. Well done to Birds of Tokyo and to the Mighty Eagles.

They don't understand that everyone else is just laughing at them. That is just embarrassing. It sounds out of tune.

As a hardcore Eagles fan, I am well aware that our song absolutely sucks. Anything is an upgrade. This could be alright, but change the singer for someone with a deeper voice, or better yet have a crowd of people with deep voices singing it
