I'm not making it up but whether it's true or apocryphal is not clear. Apparently Patton himself has told the story.

Wolfmother are awful and should be banished from the country forever.

The NRL should just book the Kang of Country Western troubadours, Unknown Hinson. League fans and wuhmerns likes that.

So whether Mr Patton was fair dinkum or just being his schidt-stirring self, we may never know!

Personally, I'd like to see the Bloodhound Gang booked - "You're Pretty When I'm Drunk (And I'm Pretty Farkin' Drunk)" would go down a treat! :alcho:

I thought Wolfmother were ordinary, and I wasn't too excited by the chopper at the ground. Yawn...

Fair enough. But who really cares anyhow when you can take your transistor radio and listen to ABC Grandstand. That's my idea of a good time.

Metallica would be awesome.

Broken, Beaten and Scarred, Creeping Death, Fight Fire With Fire, Battery, pre match

For Whom The Bell Tolls, Master Of Puppets - halftime

Enter Sandman, Fuel, My Apocalypse, Stone Cold Crazy - post match/awards

come on NRL, make it f**king happen!

If the NRL wants to save a wad of cash and get someone for free they could get the brilliant Eric Grothe to do 20 minutes of hysterical, well written comedic raps about rugby league players with Fui dancing around him in drag and big screen footage of other players singing along thru his witty choruses.

:roll:

they should get Def Leppard out to sing Rocket and Europe to sing the final countdown :)

hahahahaha

This I like!
Although I do think "Rocket" at well over 6 minutes is going to be very hard to re-produce "live".

I'd like to see them do "pour some sugar on me" and "billys got a gun", which don't really fit a football match, on the plus side it would make me easier to find for family on TV, I'll be the lone person who doesn't look bemused wearing the Union jack singlet swinging a def leppard flag shouting out "f**k yes, f**k yes!, now do Photograph!, then Rock of ages, then die hard the hunter, then love bits, then do a I wanna touch you - bringing on the heartbreak - promises medley!".................... then security would probably eject me for not wearing any pants.

If Def Leppard were performing the football game would be the last thing I'd give a sh*t about.
