forum nickname question- why your choice?

[SteveStevens66]

The goal umpire in the '66 Grand Final, who comically and theatrically stumbled.

[Cairnsman]

From Cairns and I'm of male gender

And Actually I still have an article written by an old friend who was a journalist at the Geelong Advertiser. The article was about the buildup to the 1995 Grand Final between Geelong and Carlton which I had flown down for. I was referenced in the article as a Cairns man.

[Hurricane]

I chose "Hurricane" because its my wrestling nickname. My signature "Bang Bang" has wrestling influance aswell, it is/was the catchphrase of a wrestler named Cactus Jack better known as Mick Foley, just thaught id share that with you all

BANG BANG

[GrumpyOne]

Its my maiden name.

lol - listen to Teffers, Butterss wouldn't melt in his mouth

OK time to fess up, not after Joffa Corfe, he is just another imposter trying to steal Jeff Allens nickname from the 1960's kids TV programme "The Tarax Show".

Jeff Allen was known as Joffaboy, and all males of a certain age and name in Melbourne usually get the nic of Joffa (just like Joffa Burns).

So there.

Howdy Doody Joffa Boy!

Jeff Ellen actually Joffa.

[Spinner]

Its my maiden name.

Wow...didnt see that one coming.

[barks4eva]

Bob Murray was my Primary School teacher and my first football coach , i had my picture taken with him in my No.6 saints jumper, which was part of a story on Murray in The Sun way back when.

We used to talk him into doing a few drop kicks on the school oval when he was coaching us ,it seemed like they went from one end of the oval to the other....

I thought of that time,way way back ,when i was trying to come up with a
name to use on here and just decided to run with it......

Bob Murray, was coaching St.Kilda U19's a few years ago when I had a run around with them as a 16yo, can't remember what I did, he said, "well done son", I was chuffed.

[Sainter_Dad]

LOL @ Teflon

I can not believe that after saying it was your maiden name - someone pipes up with lol - listen to Teffers, Butterss wouldn't melt in his mouth' (JB)

Since when do hims have maiden names????

Goodonya Teflon!

[SENsei]

Damn, I feel ashamed that my username isn't more inventive than some of the rippers in here.

Simply put, I listen to SEN and am a Saintsational poster.

Just a little play on sensational.



joffaboy - I met Joff Ellen way back as a young kid down at Venus Bay. Actually had a hit of tennis with him and Mike Williamson on the concrete tennis courts. Can't remember too much, but Mike Williamson did do the "Jesaulenko, you beauty" call for me.

I didn't have a clue who Joff was back then though.

Interestingly, about five years ago, met Kath Pettingill at the Venus Bay general store.

Nice people at VB!

[saintsrus]

I was fka saintsforlife but that was too close to another members name.

Then I asked my late father to join on here and he was to shy, so I created saintsrus for both of us(obviously stolen from toysrus) but its perfect as my Dad read this site often before he passed away as he was always starved for Saints news.

[GrumpyOne]

Since when do hims have maiden names????

After the sex change.

I believe he had an addadichtomy.

[saint patrick]

My name is Patrick,i am 5 th generation Irish and I'm partial to guiness....
That about covers it

[Ghost Like]

As part of an analysis I was working on and in a moment of verbal diarrhoea, I described the movements of the subject as 'ghost like'. My colleagues enjoyed it at my expense and everything I did after was described as 'ghost like'.

[killa_gram]

My name is Patrick,i am 5 th generation Irish and I'm partial to guiness....

Found it on an obscure avatar site Killa and the funny thing is my family reckons it looks a bit like me in my bearded Uni & early Moorabbin days[circa 1978]...the colour 's clinched it in the end

[joffaboy]

Nice people at VB!

Nice people drink VB

And Allen, Ellen pfft.

How the hell would Vics know? You lot pronounce "e" as "a" anyway.

Never saw his name printed only ever heard Victorians and their stupid inflections pronounce his name wrong.

Anyway its the Joffa thats important.

[wynner]

wynner - as my surname starts wyn... and everytime I say It I need to spell it.. that w for water y for yellow ....

I wanted to use this as a number plate until someone suggested that it could be pronounced "Whiner" instead of "winner"

But its meant to be what we all want the saints to be......

Goodonya Teflon!

this is starting to read like that famous "lost" saintsational thread "The Teflon Banning", which ran to 26 pages and more than 570 posts before being locked and consigned to history.

good thing we didn't lose you teffers

[minneapolis]

Born and bred in St Kilda.

Chose the name to show that we are all over the world.

Just love the site to get real opinions from people who were actually at the game and watched their heores play - not just some journalist who has to fill up half a page with platitudes.

I have seen one game live in ten years and the Grand Final is the only game I see that I do not already know the result.

[fonz_#15]

well in comparisin to most mine is dull and boring but my nickname has always been fonz or fonzie from my surname, and when i joined my favourite player was grammy and he was wearing no 15. should change it but i never got around to it.
