When they got their trophy - They sang team song - What is this - Where can I get the words from?

It's a variation on the Adelaide Crows song, the same tune..
In the land they call Victoria, where all true legends dwell
There's a team they call the Melbourne Storm and we sing a bit as well
We're a rough tough bunch of bastards, and we show a bit of form
No-one can defeat us
We are the Mighty Melbourne Storm!!!
Lyrics as sent to me a few years ago from Rusty Bowden

It's not played at all - the players have sung that song since about day dot, in the rooms after the games - and of course, after their grand final wins
It's more of a personal thing for the boys.

Fair - Good song to sing - Shame. Would be good to hear. Most teams have song they sing in changerooms eh? Lets get one going after home wins!

Tigger, do you know what the Clenched fist (palm facing up) means also? (Presuming Rusty might've given you an explanation
)
I've seen footage of the boys do it several times after the game and also on the podium also.
I presume it's a team thing also

Isn't that the "That's Gold" thing from the NRL footy show?
As for singing their song at the games... I'd be interested in knowing the players (and clubs') opinion on that... Is that just their own song? Would the club care if we took it and made it more popular than the current song?

i dont think other clubs have a song, weve adapted it from the AFL just like our banners
