Woeful Nicknames

Post: # 1798914Post BarryGrogan »

Stuv.
Winx.
Chips.
Roma.

What the hell has gone wrong down at Moorabbin?? How pathetic are we at nicknames these days??!


I pine for the days of Plugger, Fly, Skeeter, Banger, Stiffy, Goose and Chippa.

Even epic ones from the grandstand such as Jerry, Man-Child, Beetle Juice and Gonzo.



Something's amiss down there these days.

Dunno grog, but Hind's should be 'quarters'


*Allegedly.

Bring back Lucky Burgers, and nobody gets hurt.

You can't un-fry things.

Be part of the solution, not the problem.

Agreed, our serious inability to develop good nicknames is a problem...

Pretty sure Roma is just from on here and around the club he's The Prospect. Though with his form this year maybe he's outgrown it

Case in point.

Who comes up with this s***? Terrible.

They need to employ someone full time to work in nicknames.

Nicknames...geez, what next...supporters complaining about how the sandwiches are made by The Angels at RSEA Park. 🙄


Posters that have admitted they were wrong about Hanna's gastro and the club didn't create a cover story.

The best one for a saints player that really fitted the player profile has to be "Mad Dog Muir"
