I will not be doing a mexican wave unless there is a time consuming injury. I, for one, will be glued to the match. I don't agree with Mexican waves during close matches and there is no way that I'm going to be bothered with one if the score is even remotely close in a Grand Final.

I say, remember to do mexican waves, when the lumps in the stands can be half arsed to lift their arms for a second or two, it looks good, and i'll be watching on fox... forget the wave, unless the game is absolutely dead and buried one way or another. all other time we're singing. sorry, but we can't afford time for 'oohs and aahs', and frankly i'm happier if the blue crowd stays nailed to their seats for the 90 minutes (preferably because we're giving their team six of the best).

For a simple song you can't go past:
We love you mariners, we do We love you mariners, we do We love you mariners, we do Ooohh mariners we love you
sing it 3 times through getting louder each time!!

Everyone in the bay has at some point turned around when I've started a chant with "We love youarrreeghghhh*cough*cough*choke*" but I just keep on singing. My voice is louder and stronger and recovers quicker since the start of the season. Amazing how it 'grows' or 'evolves' like that.

i don't think that adelaide was the cause of my sore throat. it actually appreared on tuesday, but i think it was the plane's fault. it was really cold in there.
ok WT i'll do my best and just chant, shout and scream till we win

Waves are only a mild distraction when the match is dead boring, or during half-time. I can't see one happening from Bay 3 on Sunday. Whistles you can shove up your......

plenty! bzzt! cargo shorts!
however, they're also a guaranteed early exit, ban, fine, potential criminal charges...

Not actually considering taking flares into ground, was meant as a joke. Stupid lack of context when typing. Should learn emoticons better...

it'd be great if flares and things could be done in an agreed way (safe, coordinated, spectacular), and people kinda got that it's for show, not for 'ha, see how tough we are, we've got flares and we can throw them at the scum' (whoever the scum happens to be).
this country has a very 'the sun' attitude to football fans, if they're getting excited or whatever it's ok up to a point, but we 'know' they're always one step away from rioters throwing darts, coins and bricks at each other...
