Everyone's A Winner by Hot Chocolate
"Stoneham got up high, Dunstan back with a bit of a flick, Di Natale in towards Jennings… Templeton will get a free kick, no he won’t, its going to be a goal….to Scanlan his 2nd, its raining goals at the moment. Footscray’s 25th, there’s no doubt their going to kick the sweep today”
