What is your favourite nickname for a Melbourne player?

If you don't know any then try to come up with one!

Examples - Aaron Davey (Flash)

- Jack (Good Times) Grimes

    Judy "Garland"-just needs to perform on the big stage consistently -and stop looking at the replay.

    Tom "Drive Thru" McDonald.-still workshopping.

    I'm gonna start calling Dom Barry, "Nong"...as per the suggestion of "Barrignon".

    It'll catch on. Just you watch.

    you will n otice when mark neeld does interviews, especially when we loose, his right eye starts twitching.

    so I was thinking, either, the twitcher, or birdman

    (i.e. twitcher as in bird watcher)

    Mm, I don't think that would be appropriate, I heard Malthouse saying at some stage that he delayed neurosurgery for Collingwoods 2010 premiership. This year he has been accused of being racist, being unable to coach, criticised for starting captains on the bench, not having a game plan and the usual media slander. His medical history is none of our business; nick names referring to any neurological condition which is no fault of his own might not be very tasteful. Don’t need a coach frustrated by impatient supporter slander of a developing playing group, to be any more upset with us than he probably already is.

    no offence was meant. To be honest I thought it was down to stress of his first year with everything going to hell.

    apologies.

    HE actually said in an interview earlier this year that the twitch is a result of nerve damage after he broke his jaw back when he played. I believe he is planning on having it fixed at some point.

    I heard this, too.

    I don't think any offence was meant by rabf.

    Pretty sure when they fixed his jaw one of his facial nerves wrapped itself around the bone. He's had the surgery to fix it but I takes tome for it to fix itself (like, years). But there is a notable improvement since the start of the year and now. He even gets through some interviews without it playing up at all

    The way of creating a nickname is simple.

    Just add a Y to the end of their name.

    Examples - Wattsy

    - Howey

    - Grimesy

    - Clarky

    Need I say more?...

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
