Saw Adam Saad play and he did heaps of Ahmed saads today wouldn't mind a pair of Saads. Kicks a footy like a round ball although he didn't run up from somewhere near footscray before kicking a goal.

Back in my primary school days a big pack mark or "stepladder" job was known as a "Jezza".

Yes, White Winmar, when I was a kid any spectacular mark in the air was called a "Jezza". I hope in the future, a very difficult kick off the ground goal, becomes a "Saad".

Yep, same here but later in the 70's, in my hometown of Kyabram, Vic, I started calling them 'Barkers', and it caught on all over town, and through different aged teams.
