I can't not think of the Dogs premierships when I hear Simply the best.

1995 my brother.

I remember Belmore Sports Ground had "Simply The Best" painted across the top of the Grandstand.

So happy that our skipper got a grand final victory as captain that year, stuff me he deserved it - Terry John Lamb epitomises the slogan as well.

 

[Sword]

Sad day indeed

 

[Moedogg]

How good were the day Grand finals? Bring them back.

 

[N4TE]

Be good to see some form of tribute for the grandfinal entertainment

Good idea

Excellent idea. Have a bbq and some beers invite everyone over and enjoy the afternoon.

 

[John Matrix]

There was no better League entertainer than Tina.

RIP

 

[Robbothedestroyer]

Without doubt the best league promo ever.
Now we get to hear Matt Nable drone on.
Great entertainer had to put up with a lot of shite from her grub ex husband.
RIP Tina thanks for the memories.

I loved this version..used to get me going when lifting weights ..Barnsey and Turner belting out ‘Simply the Best’. It’s a perfect match..

 

[B-Train]

RIP. She was an amazing performer that defied age to look and sound as good as she did and survive all the bullshit and abuse with Ike over the years.

Tina Turner.
1939–2023

Born in a segregated hospital in Tennessee.
Died at her Kusnacht estate in Switzerland...
You only achieve that if your,
"Simply The best!" ​

 

[Grunthos]

How sad, RIP Tina.
Best Rugby League promos that will ever exist.

The game was better back then...

 

[SPEARTAKVIDREFS]

Great from the get go and all class.
RIP

 

[senshidog]

From sounds of it didn't have a good run with health in recent times (kidney failure, intestinal cancer, and a stroke).

An entertainer, who delivered hit after hit, and will be forever immortalised in musical history.

RIP.

On a side note, Tina the Musical is currently in Sydney at Theatre Royal and is apparently brilliant.

They should've put her in the NRL Hall of Fame already.

They need to play either Simply the best or What you get is what you see before every game this round.

I hope they give her a minutes silence at Origin and then play Simply the best.

I hope they give her a minutes silence at Origin.

And whenever someone scores a try this round play 1 of the 2 songs that I mentioned.
