Peter Urlich: Writer of the the Warriors song on fans taking up the chant

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB

Nothing builds energy in stadiums quite like a good chant.  Last week the Warriors demolished the Newcastle Knights, 40-10, and a packed-out 26,083 crowd celebrated their victory with a roaring rendition of the team’s chant.  The chant was created over twenty years ago by kiwi music icon Peter Urlich, and was previously only sung within the privacy of the sheds.  Urlich told Mike Hosking that hearing the fans take up the chant felt like they were throwing down the shackles of their reticent selves.  He said it was like they were a part of the team.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
