Hi there,

it's been a while since we have seen Melbourne play in fact 1 game in 4 years due to other commitments I have lost track and was wondering what the latest nicknames players are being called. Any help appreciated :-)

Can not wait until Saturday very excited and more so excited about the future of this club, a lot of that I believe has to do with the positiveness that Jimmy has bought back.

Regards Darren

 

Jame McDonald - Junior

Mark Jamar - The Russian

Aaron Davey - The Flash

Jack Trengove - I've hear a lot of Trenners coming from the crowd

James Frawley - Chip

Liam Jurrah - The Jurrah-caine (amongst many others)

Jack Watts - The Messiah

Michael Newton - Spud

Bate's is pronounced 'Mass - ta'

Add to you list

Jones - Nate Dog

Grimes - Franky

Bartram - Barts (although he did nickname himself the Junk Yard Dog )

Trengove - Trenners

Sylvia & Garland - Col

I call McKenzie Junior Junior for the way he goes about his footy.


I call Joel Macdonald Bruce because I swear they spend half the game passing to each other...maybe I should call him "the Old Brad Green'

 

petterd -the tard

spencer- spencil


Jones used to be the nuggest but me and my mates now belt out a deep Juuuuuuuuunes every time he gets it.

Jones = Chunky

Moloney = Beamer

Maric = Magic

Bell = Dinga

Trengove = JT

Scully = Sculls

Cheney = Fetta

Warnock = Knockers

Spencer = Pencil

Meeson = Moose

Bennell & Jetta = Benny & The Jet

Macdonald = Duke, J-Mac

Edited by Deefence

If you read the players twitters

Rohan Bail is Sword?

Watts is also Killer

Gawn is Gawn dog?

....from Ricky Petterd's and Jake Soencers' twitter

Bate - Master

Davey - Flash

Frawley - Chip

Jamar - Russian

Jurrah - Jurrahcane, Walpiri Wizard

McDonald - Junior

Scully - Sculls

Trengove - Trenners, JT

Wonaeamirri - WONNA


Jordie Mckenzie i call J D because we have so many bloody Maccas now

Don't forget Maloney-Beamer

Trengove = TRENNNNNNN in my books - just whenever he gets the ball.

Same for Scully - SCULLLLLLLLLLL.

Purely because they are both class.

Grimes is just an almost-orgasmic "oh yeah" or "Yes." whenever he goes near it.

Watts = Killa according to Jones' twitter - as in, I presume, "200 kilowatts... 200 killer wasps?!!?!?" add about that car.

Any idea why Moloney is Beamer?

Scully and Trengove are collectively known as the Pirates!

Scully is obviously SKULLS...

And Trengove is NO-R (say it with a pirate's accent and you'll get it)!

♥ THE PIRATES

I call Joel Macdonald Bruce because I swear they spend half the game passing to each other...maybe I should call him "the Old Brad Green'

LOL,,,, cute answer, Hasn't Greeny come a long way.


In his first game I accidentally called Trengove "Trenny", and now I can't get it out of my head, so everytime he gets the ball I yell out "go Trenny" and it feels kinda wrong :blink::)

My two cents worth

1 - "Knockers" Warnock

2 - "Chunk" Jones

3 - Clint Bartram "Simmo" Bart Simpson

4 - "Jesus/Messiah/Killa" Watts

5 - Gysberts "Giblets" or "Guts"

6 - "Masta" Bate

7 - Millsy

8 - "Chip/Chippa" Frawley

9 - "Noah" as in "no r" in Trengove

10 - "Bricks" as in: safe as bricks and mortar/Morton.. also built like a brick ****house.. or simply "Sticks"

11 - "Hightower" Johnson

12 - "Golden" Col... as in Gold n Silvia

13 - Jordie

14 - Dunny

15 - "Ricky" Bobby or "Diablo" (from the same movie lol)

16 - "Jackie Grimes/Frank Grimes"

18 - Greeny or Bradley

19 - "Maz/Magic" Maric

20 - "Judy" Garland

21 - "Dingdong" Bell

22 - "Beamer" Moloney

23 - "Junior"

24 - "Jurrah-Maaan" (I don't do Walpiri Wizard or Jurrahcane)

25 - "Fetta/Dick" Cheney

27 - "Jazz" Rivers

28 - "Joel MacDonald

29 - "Juice" Newton

30 - Tommy Mac

31 - "That's your ball Sculls!!" and "Hands Sculls!"

32 - Cam Bruce

33 - "Aussie/Wona"

34 - "Steffie" Martin

35 - "Tappy" our very own Chappy

36 - "Flash"

37 - Maxy Gawn

39 - "Nev" the "Jet"

40 - "Russian"

43 - Jamie "Benny" Bennel

...

But oh so right!

 

Apart from the obvious which everyone uses,

we also use

Pettard - Number Plate since we own the MFC-15 numberplates.

Silvia - Roll used to go with (B)Rock before we lost him.

Grimes - Everyone's Favourite since everyone, commentators, reporters, fans, love him.

Jurrah - Walpiri Wizard we hate jurricane, cougar, they all sound fake.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
