Footy bosses move to stop another anthem drama at State of Origin

NRL bosses are taking no chances to ensure there isn't a repeat of the very controversial national anthem ahead of Origin's game two at the MCG on Wednesday night.
In the series opener on June 5 in Sydney, 2024 Australian Idol winner Dylan Wright was savaged by footy fans after he delivered a stripped-down, guitar-based rendition of Advance Australia Fair to a packed house at Accor Stadium.
Wright's low-tempo performance was labelled 'diabolical' and 'hipster' by enraged supporters on social media - and the top brass at the NRL have clearly taken notice.
Singer and actress Sheridan Adams has now been handed the honour of belting out the national anthem in front of 90,000 fans at the MCG - and if her performance at this year's Australian Open women's tennis final at Melbourne Park is any guide, it is sure to inspire those in attendance.
It's understood that Adams doesn't plan to deviate from the traditional rendition of the anthem.
That decision could prove to be a wise one after Wright was crucified online earlier this month.
In addition to being labelled 'diabolical' and 'hipster', other commenters on social media were even more blunt.
'Nah f*ck off with this national anthem. You can't do a cover of the anthem,' one wrote.

'Not a fan of artists putting their spin on the national anthem. Either sing it properly, or just play the Julie Anthony recording,' commented another.
'Just when you thought the national anthem couldn't be worse,' wrote a third.
'Could be the worst anthem rendition in recent memory,' quipped another.
The staging of the Welcome to Country at the series opener in the Harbour City was also a major talking point.
Savannah Fynn, 21, spoke with maturity beyond her years when she acknowledged the traditional owners of the land.
