“You’ll Never Walk Alone”, which was played as Arrow led the Rabbitohs onto the field for their regular season finale against the Roosters earlier this month, is reportedly set to be performed by a number of high-profile Australian musicians while Arrow takes part in a heart-tugging lap of honour around Accor Stadium.
Newly-minted NRL executive chairman Peter V’landys has teased there will be entertainment following the withdrawal of Australian pop star Tones and I, who was originally meant to perform.
V’landys previously stated that the secret entertainment would begin 11 minutes before kick off, but has changed his tune on the start time.

It’s understood that the performance and Arrow’s lap of honour will begin at 7:05, 25 minutes before kick off.
“Everyone is guessing but we have something,” V’landys told CODE Sports.
“The only mistake I made was saying to wait until 11 minutes before the grand final. It’s going to more like 20 minutes before the game.”
