I hate nicknames. I don't understand opposition teams forums.

So Stingrays is your real name?

And for the poster who opined that 'Captain Blood' was the best nickname ever - and it is a beauty - I prefer 'the galloping gasometer'. Probably meaningless to anyone who (a) doesn't remember Mick Nolan (B) doesn't know what a gasometer was and © doesn't remember the Arden Street Oval. But those who do will possibly agree that all those things combined seamlessly into the descriptive nickname which I seem to recall was invented by Lou Richards.

[Demon Jack 6,397]

Tom McDonald - Drive Thru

Max Gawn - The Minute Man

[Mazer Rackham 14,970]

Based on another current thread, Viney's nickname should be Chuck

Viney doesn't have a nickname.

Nicknames have Viney.

I dont get some of these but here is the updated list.

[Robbie57 1,996]

what about "the Thinker" for rodan, after rodin's famous statue.

Stingrays is not my real name, but it is not a nickname, it is a nom de plume. Totally different.

Well defended and explained.

[Micky Dee 11]

As one of the fastest kids in the league, Sammy Blease has got to be 'blaze'

[Guest José Mourinho]

Jimmy "Thumper" Toumpas.

FTW.

[This Dangerous 93]

Michael Evans nickname is 'Pickles', but I think he should be called Greg. Who is apparently a Dees fan. So there you go.

[Demon Jack 6,397]

Jordie "Frenzy" Mckenzie!

[Gippsland Dee 367]

Anyone have any ideas for a nickname for Cam Pederson? Because I don't think "Pedo" is going to work out.

Yeah its a pretty unfortunate name. I've heard others refer to him as "pedders" which i think is far better.

Arsene Wenger

[Barney Rubble 1,576]

Maxy Gawn = Mad Max

Tom McDonald = Big Mac.

Jimmy Toumpas =TooooooomPaaass Just like oooooze

[autocol 448]

Is it just me, or is anyone else disappointed we won't have any Wines behind the Sellar Dawes?

That said, I'm absolutely rapt with Thumper instead...

[Barney Rubble 1,576]

Nathan Jones = His team mates call him Chunk

[DemonDing 56]

Maxy Gawn = Mad Max

Tom McDonald = Big Mac.

Jimmy Toumpas =TooooooomPaaass Just like oooooze

Yep Cant wait to yell TOOOOOOMPASSSSS

[DeeVoted 582]

Viney doesn't have a nickname.

Nicknames have Viney.

A tough one to find for Jack

I thought D2 (r2d2) Dee2 as Todd is 1, his son 2nd.

Little, indestructable , unstoppable, keeps going.

Then again R2 (artoo)

Thats a Perfect Match.

[Barney Rubble 1,576]

Some of you have been around the change rooms surely.

We must have someone we can name. The Horse or Python. or the other extreme Acorn.

Edit :- Unless the nickname Monty is the same for Shannon Byrnes

[GrandOld 367]

Maybe Souva for Toumpas?

From all reports Jamar has all the prerequites covered to earn the Horse nickname. I didn't think he had a long face and big ears, but there you go.

Also, while I love the Priest for CP, what about Herbert (or Herbie). If anyone watches Family Guy you will know what I'm getting at. For the non-Family Guy watchers, here's a sample...
