(Not so) sweet caroline

[Meg]

Saw video clip on Instagram of players + partners dancing & singing to Sweet Caroline at Kieran Jack and Charlotte Goodlet’s recent wedding. They all seemed to be enjoying it. But I did wonder if they were trolling RWO readers!

I've said before, I like the song.
It's just not a footy song.
Admittedly I like it less than I used to because the Swans play it.

Instead of going through the same old tired routine, perhaps we could commission the New Orleans rapper, Choppa, to come up with something like this for us?

The New Orleans players also seem to like Choppa.

This one is also great, with some excellent brass work at the end. Though it's possibly taking the piss, out of the limited dance skills of Saints coach, Sean Payton.

The Saints players like it, too.

I don't know why they feel the need to entertain us.
We go to the footy to watch footy.

"Are you not entertained?"

I think it's a generational thing. They need to entertained constantly, otherwise their lives won't be fulfilled!!??

Yep. They can cut the dance cam too.

Spot on. I understand the need for ads - sponsors are important to us.

But I feel insulted by the presumption that my passion for the Bloods is not enough and that I need a song and a dance to make my day complete.

Aarrgh! touched a very sore point. And while they are "entertaining" us we can't hear ourselves talk about the game. And this club is supposed to be dickhead-free!

It's an AFL directive to enhance the game day experience for fans ????

Do people need their game day experience enhanced?

I don't!!

My game day experience would be greatly enhanced if the loudspeakers went on the blink.
