Suggestions for a new song for Port

We welcome your suggestions to replace Never Tear Us Apart as the Port song. 40,000 Port fans singing that is like someone trying to claim a retired number at a footy club. It just shouldn't be allowed to happen.

Anyway, here's my picks (keeping things light-hearted ;) )


Ship of fools - World Party

I'm with stupid - Pet Shop Boys

Fool in the rain - Led Zepplin (for wet games)

Or why can't they just use Bound for Glory or Show No Mercy.... Just because it's already been done ;)

Just change the lyrics to the INXS classic:

"We'll never tear up our tarps."

Alternative songs for other clubs

Central District – Hey Bulldog (Beatles)
North Adelaide – Little Red Rooster (Rolling Stones)
Eagles – Wings of an Eagle (Russell Morris) or Eagle Rock (Daddy Cool)
Norwood – Legs (Z Z Top)
Glenelg – Eye of the Tiger (Survivor) [probably Glenelg's unofficial alternate team song as it is played at a lot of Glenelg home games)
Sturt – Yer Blues (Beatles)

Both teams should sing "Punch in the face" by the Rhomb.

Whether it be Port Adelaide or not, it's bagging an excellent initiative that thousands have embraced and I guess I'd shitcan things that haven't worked.......play on.

Now, what's happening in that auto correct thread....

Nah it does seem a bit silly considering the whole tarp thing. Now they're winning and there's all this pride?

They should modify the song to "you'll never tear us apart....until we lose a few games"

Seems staged, and really just copying more successful teams from other sports and trying to make it their own.
