Hawthorn's isn't based on "Yankee Doodle" (the 1863 American Cival War Theme) but on a Musical Number called "I'm a Yanky Doodle Dandy" from the movie "Yankee Doodle Dandy" (1942). The film starred James Cagney as George M. Cohan, and the song in question can be found on YouTube (search for Cagney Cohen & Yankee Doodle Dandy). You'll see it's bar-for-bar the same tune as "We're a happy team at Hawthorn".
Thanks for posting. When I heard "never gonna give you up" at the end for a second I thought West Coast had remixed the track into their funny theme song. Perhaps Fremantle should've adopted it for all of the loyal supporters that have stuck by this joke of a footy team.
Give us a break, nobody is interested in a theme song as woeful as those three. Some modern day songwriter who was paid $500 made all three of those songs. At least Adelaide decided to use a well made theme as their song.
@dockerboy6 nothing. Fremantle have no culture, no history, no class. They are simply a waste of space. Hopefully Lyon changes that for you Dockers fans.

A very small part of the tune is taken from "The Ride of the Volga Boatmen", thats true, But not enough to be included.

Those are all are originally written songs, and not based on any already existing songs, as the rest are.

Don't wanna be a smart arse but Freo's song is based on a classical tune (like Geelong's) but I don't know the name of it.

@riccardo15 Freo is based on a russian folk song, Volgar boatmen
