Hi there,

I am wondering what nicknames are being used, that I can use Sunday

    I would call you dazza....

    That was gold! I got a really good laugh out of that.

    Just put a y on the end of any name that ends with and S or E and you've probably nailed it.

    Jones often gets called Jesus Christ, usually after he kicks it.

    Hey, come on, let's help Dazzler out. In no particular order:

    Davey = Flash

    Jamar = The Russian

    Green = Greeny (how inspiring)

    Jones = Jonesy (ditto)

    Jurrah = LJ

    Moloney = Beamer

    Watts = Killer or Mega

    and surely Strauss is Levi

    What else?

    ....... or tries to burst through an opening that doesn't exist.

    Hmm. I'd like to see that nickname used far less frequently in 2011, and this has nothing to do with a distaste for blasphemy.

    My vote for post of the year.

    here's one from left field - how about "Black Caviar" for LJ

    I like it.

    + Grimes = Frank. (reference to a Simpsons episode)

    What about Col Garland's 'Good time Grimes?'

    Bate was quick to get the nickname "Master" as far as I remember, but my group of mates coined the nickname "Fetus" for him, due to his knack of always looking like he's in the fetal position when going for a mark... It did end up in the catchphrase "You can defeat us when we have the fetus", when he had the odd good game...

    Also, as close to an "official" nicknames list as I can gather:

    Bartram: Barty

    Bate: Master

    Bennell: Benny (see Jetta's nickname for the combo)

    Davey: Flash

    Dunn: Toilet, Dunny, The Mo (depends who you ask or where you sit)

    Frawley: Chip

    Jamar: Russian

    Jetta: Jet

    Jones: Chunk

    Jurrah: Hasn't really been settled yet, but Jurrahcane seems popular in the outer

    Moloney: Beamer

    Petterd: Ricky Bobby

    Rivers: Old Man

    Tapscott: Tank

    Trengove: Trenners

    Watts: Mega

    Wonaemerri: Aussie

    As far as I know they're the known, common one's, any players missed don't have an "official" nick that I've heard commonly used.

    Definitely "Good Times"

    Funniest post i've read on any forum all year. Gold.

    If he ever turns out to be good again you're duty bound to put that on a banner. Epic.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
