Get the new song along with the wokerati and the coconut heads out of our club!!! Bring in players like Heady, Sumich, Matera, Woosha, Lewis and Macintosh.
This is definitely way better than it the current song we have.. They should put all three songs we have together and do a pole and see which ones is better
@Jordan Goold We _true_ west coast fans only support the Eagles, but some of us do respect good teams, so long as they don't play us. Teams like Sydney, Hawthorn, Stuff like that.
@@horrorknight3096 i feel a kinship with the eagles because of their hatred of vicbias that's plaguing the competition. Single handedly cost us 2016 with their desire to see the bulldogs win to get us back for snagging Buddy. I loved every second of 2018. Can't stand any Victorian team, hence my love of this song.
@@thesupplantor I support an interstate team and I think the idea of Vic bias is stupid. How else would west coast have won in 2018, down by 29 at one stage in the first quarter. GWS were genuinely shit in last year's grand final. Same as Adelaide were in 2017, west coast were in 2015, sydney were in 2014 and freo were in 2013. If Vic bias were real, only Victorian teams would appear in the grand final, that hasn't happened since 2011. Stop blaming Vic bias for losing the 2016 grand final, only 8 points in the first quarter is a good reason, as is your defence and midfield was careless for the majority of the game (Tom boyds goal and Liam Pickens Mark and goal are good examples in the last quarter). If your team performs shit on the day, that's the only explanation I should be hearing, not some shite about bias towards Victorian teams.
1987: ABSOLUTELY!! 🤩 2000: The old one was a bit better but this is still pretty good 😃 2018: There was no need for this change but I still like it 🙂 2020: WHAT THE F*CK?!? 😡
Actually this original version is way better than the new one. I'm an American but hate the Philadelphia Eagles and their team song; they should adopt this one!
Cary Sklar then the chorus will go: We’re the eagles, The Philadelphia Eagles, and we’re here, to show you why, we’re the big birds, kings of the big game, we’re the eagles, we’re flying high.
Back when they entered the AFL they needed to convince West Australians to switch to the Eagles, as many of them had their own VFL teams. A parochial team song helps. But now they're established, they need more than an anti-Victorian sentiment to keep going, they need to focus on their own history and identity
@@croweater6814 I presume you're not a West Coast supporter, but you'd otherwise know that Fremantle is seen to us kind of like how their colours look. Specifically, discoloured shit.
@@trship6274 I'll be honest, the one from 2017 and before was better, the 2018 one was nice, but the 2020 one isn't so great. It's not a bad song, just not what you expect.
I've been a West Coast Eagles AFL Fan since I was a boy and I still am. One of my most favourite West Coast Eagles players is Josh Kennedy. I haven't been to an AFL Game yet but I hope to, Go The West Coast Eagles.
@@BoganFromBama Please exclude Fremantle from that. But yeah, so long as it isn't Freo playing someone, I generally like non-Victorian teams doing well. I'm quite the parochial.
+David D Because West Coast supporters are too busy downing booze to remember the lyrics to the old song. They could only remember the chorus, so they stuck with that. It's too hot to think over there.
I think the AFL made them change it because it bags Victorians and that kind of parochialism doesn't sit well with their idea of a national competition.
David D They changed it because it became obsolete. The AFL changed from regional or state based drafting to a national draft. Players had to go where they were drafted, no matter what state or area they came from.
This is THE song. The board of directors needs to catch a clue and reinstate this gem. In America we sports fans on the West Coast grumble about East Coast bias but you Aussies went so far as to memorialize it in song. Effing brilliant.
This is best WCE theme song ever and I’d say if it weren’t for Freo and the line “all you wisemen from the east” it would still be the club’s theme song
The text was used until 2018, the Dockers joined in 1995, so it didn’t bother them for 23 years. Dockers are one club, the other 16 (and soon with the Tasmania Devils 17) teams are all from “the east”.
MrAJMan Mayor of Toyland Mayor Arthur Ian Bunny: (Big West Coast Eagles fan and Irish rabbit) Congratulations to the *WC* West Coast Eagles or as I like to call them The Weagles for winning the 2018 Premiership against those Woodsmen Magpies from Collingwood and the Million Dollar/Premiership Cup Prize you have earned it very well. President Eddie *Edward Joseph* McGuire and AFL Collingwood Coach Nathan Charles Buckley AKA Buckteeth if you're listening.... *blows raspberry* Pffffft!
Another derby win! And I have dockers family for neighbours on one side and being Cockburnish - it’s very much Dockers supporter territory. Nonetheless I have this bad boy blasting out of my Tele through chrome cast to rub in the 8th derby win in a row :)
Im from South Lake in Cockburn. It sucks being an Eagles fan because when everyone around me is a dockers fan it gets really annoying to see such losers.
@@manuelpereira6756 I live near some dockers. I always know that they watch the games, so when we beat them I run outside and blast my stereo at them with the Eagles theme until they ask me to stop. They recently did it to me when they won. Laughed my ass off.
I graduated school in Rockingham about 8 years ago (before moving to Brisbane AKA Shitbane). Big Freo following with a few WCE supporters. Derby matches were fun, because they'd all fight each other the following school day.
Briano Alliano performing a west coast eagles party on Saturn Hi welcome to Saturn and tonight I will celebrate the west coast eagles winning the 2018 premiership with our first song West coast Macarena You see the mighty west coast eagles They won and they are mighty They looked like they’ll lose it But they kept fighting and pushed it Each player played well They go back to Perth with the cup yeah Yeah party all night all bloody night go the mighty eagles 1 2 3 4 go the mighty eagles Keep the fight up till the final siren It is all worth it as we lift the cup Go the west coast eagles Then the fun began they started Bringing our team to the stage After barnsy Everybody was cheering Saying go the mighty eagles 1 2 3 4 go the mighty eagles Yes we won the cup And boy are we happy We are planning to get drunk all flaming night Go the mighty eagles And now here is the next song Clap for eagles 3 6 9 the eagles are fine We just won the cup And we feel divine The crowd at the mcg were happy mate Can’t wait to get back to Perth To see the crowd that couldn’t make it yeah We put our hands up and lift our voice and cheer Everybody joins us when we say 3 6 9 go the eagles tonight The cup is ours all through our lives And now here is the west coast victory song We won we won we won The mighty west coast eagles The cup the cup is ours Yes we are celebrating You see we are the best mate Winning is our friend We never ever gave up Right to the very end Go eagles go eagles go eagles go Winning the cup means everything to us our gracious team You see we are fighters And we are bad and mean Never giving up and We got the prize Yes, we were keen Go eagles go eagles go eagles go The cup is ours Go the mighty eagles Till the day is done This is a cheer I had in the past with the eagles We are the eagles the west coast eagles We the ones who will win this game Each goal we score Will be a blessing dude Yes we will win this game You see mate the cup is ours And mate it was a bit of a fight We are the eagles the west coast eagles We are the winners of 2018 Go the mighty eagles yeah Every single day go west coast eagles The next cheering song says this They never thought we would fail it no the eagles are the best the 2018 season is over yeah And the eagles come up the best the eagles had their heartaches at the start oh yeah But they kept on fighting and We won it yeseree At the end we cheered for them And the supporters are cheering in Perth saying go the mighty eagles yes we are so great Now we are coming home And we are expecting an almighty roar go the eagles The west coast eagles Yes we won and we are happy great win eagles
Granted the newer version (2006 if I am not wrong) was just a cover version of this. But they should have never change it to begin with, this is by far the best version of the WCE song. Why the need to change the song 4 times in 33 years whereas others haven’t changed it in 70 years or so?
The sound of this playing at t end of the the 1992 grand final was awesome and I don’t even follow eagles. 2006 and 2018 was somewhat tainted by their awful songs
I really loved this song. The only improvement would be to remove the word ‘flying’ and replace it with ‘mighty’. So it’s ‘we’re the Eagles, we’re mighty high’.
The 2020 version outsmarted us. It can't be shat on, it is the most literal definition of shit. I'm not meaning "shit" as in bad, just that it is audible faeces.
