I seem to remember a pretty interesting conversation about Sharks Songs HERE

I've always thought that we should have two songs - one a call to arms song and the other a victory song.

Up Up Cronulla is OUR victory song and should never be changed and it should only ever be sung when we win.

Our call to arms song though should be something that pumps us up and gets us in the zone before and during a game.

Just keep playing the jaws theme when the Sharks are on the attack.

But usually when they do that we inevitably stuff up and lose the ball or something.

As for "Up Up Cronulla' we should definitely keep it. I love that song and when we win I can't stop singing it, or when my vocal chords get sore, humming it. My kids haven't complained about it as yet as being outdated and can you imagine trying to teach the old supporters, like my Dad, any new team song?
Nup, it wouldn't work and wouldn't be the same.

I do hope that the game day music improves next year, however...

I can't believe anyone would even suggest changing the song.

I love that song. To me whenever you here that song it means one thing - good times.

Some things should never change! - Just like Glory Glory Man Utd, You'll never walk alone (Liverpool) and Up Up Cronulla. Leave it alone!!!!

My Missus is a Manly fan (yeah i dont know why we're still together either.....) but she comes with me to 95% of the games I attend.

She says that you cant help but sing the song regardless of whether you support the Sharks or not. It just makes you feel so proud after a win to belt it out.....


Never.... Ever..... Change it!

I was at an Oktoberfest celebration a few weeks back and the band played roll out the barrel but the whole pub ended up singing Up Up Cronulla once my mate and I started. It was a great feeling
