Waltzing Matilda chant?
Waltzing Matilda chant?
How about ripping off Waltzing Matilda for a chant? If Aussie
commentators want to dub us the "New Zealand Phoenix", let's make
every game an international and rip the sh*t out of their de facto
anthem.
We could do a send up of the entire song or just the chorus (which is pretty easy to sing after a pint or six).
Here's a couple of possible choruses:
<!-- @page { size: 21cm 29.7cm; margin: 2cm } TD P { margin-bottom: 0cm } P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } -->

It could work at the cricket.. (firebirds ;))

Hadn't thought of that! Was just using the word as a poetic reference to a phoenix!
So are our cricket and football teams the only Wellington sporting clubs to use the phoenix moniker?
In any case, hopefully our boys will become the better-known phoenix/firebirds -- on both sides of the Tasman, at least.
