Nicknames

[Darren 0]

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

[Sir Why You Little 37,034]

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

Don't forget Maloney-Beamer

[4jacks 0]

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?

[Sir Why You Little 37,034]

Any idea why Moloney is Beamer?

B M (W) is a Beamer i suspect.

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

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

[Jaded No More 68,913]

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

7 - Millsy

id rather 7 - FAIL

[Demon Rob 2]

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.
