Rugby chants

Meldanorama

Can we get a list of the best chants in rugby. Possibly even suggest some.

Wouldn't mind a nice one for the home games in the SG meself

LEINSTER LEINSTER LEINSTER LEINSTER LEINSTER (and so on and so forth)!

What i was looking for was to see if there were any creative ones in the same vein you get at soccer matches. Funny and catchy ones

Cheer up sleepy Dean
Oh what does it mean
You're a, fat Leicester b&stard
In a sh1t rugby team...

Light heartedly sung at Dean Richards by Bath fans. Later stolen by football fans and sung at Gazza for a decade.

"Rocky Rocky Rocky....."

LightningBolt

I'll probably be criticised for this but rugby fans are generally quite poor at coming up with witty chants at matches. Granted a lot of football chants are quite offensive but they can be hilarious.

LeeroyJones

"Swing Low, Sweet Tommy Bowe, coming for to carry us home"

Tame enough, effective all the same, especially after his opening try in Twickenham!

The difference between rugby and soccer is that rugby is entertaining, so we don't need to resort to chanting to justify our attendance at matches

If Leinster can do an unexpected number on Toulouse they can chant "Always look on the bright side of life...TOULOUSE TOULOUSE TOULOUSE TOULOUSE!"

Robbo

All I know is that if you depart from the traditional dirges about corn rustling & enforced emigration or seafood based shanties, you'll get a stern talking down to by GT himself for being a bit too soccer-like.

Meanwhile, those North of the border are allowed pillage the Village People's back catalogue at will...

When Tommy goes marching down the wing, the Bowe, The Bowe,
When Tommy goes marching down the wing, the Bowe, The Bowe,
When Tommy goes marching down the wing, Lansdowne Road will start to sing,
Cos we all know that Tommy's Gonna score

Na na na na na na na na na, na na, na na na na na na na na, na na,
Na na na na na na na na na, we all know that Tommy's gonna score!!

JJ

His arms are as big as barbells
I thought he was king of the tribe
Ireland will go on to vic-tor-y
Wrapped up with a Tommy Bowe try!

We're rich and we know we are
We're rich ....

On Off the ball last night they were talking to Filipe about a Toulon chant and played a clip. I forget what it was called but it was pretty amazing, its about some great warrior coming down off the mountains into Toulon.

For Felipe's last appearance in RDS (sadly as a spectator), while we were thrashing the Scarlets on a beautiful summer's day there was a wonderful chant of 'Same old Leinster, Champagne Rugby' rolling around the place.

That and 'Allez les Bleus' really sum up Leinster fans. :pac:

They got real upset when we sang stand up if you are an Irish Man back at them in the Madstead

The most common one i used to hear in Thomond Park, was when the opposition just kicked the game off and as Munster retrieved the ball and the opposition give away a penalty straight away, some old fella always shouts "Ah come on ref, they've been doing it all day!"


It gets repeated so much it might aswell be a chant, probably should switch up where i stand in the stadium as its probably the same old fella all the time.

At the Ulster Ospreys match this month the ref went to the TMO to check if NOC's kick was good. Word came back it was wide and the crowd started to chant "Are you sure, are you sure, are you sure". For a lot of the rest of the calls that went against Ulster for the rest of the match the chant started again
