I bring this up as a lot of people around me at the football have no idea who I am cheering for when yell the name Nibbler or Chunk.
I also have a new name for the number 21 Pederson so we don't have to be cheering out go Pedo....

I'll say it again, the most simple alternative is 'Pedders' 

Been suggesting this for the last four years, haha.

Nibbler- Neale-Bullen

Chunk- Jones

I hope that clears it up. 

The cardinal is a decent name for Pedo!

Yeah " the Cardinal " would feel like he's on trial too !

Heard Frost being called Optimus prime by some of the players

I had to look it up. From Wikipedia (so it must be true...)

"Optimus Prime (formerly Orion Pax) is a fictional character from the Transformers franchise. Optimus Prime is consistently depicted as having strong moral character, excellent leadership, and sound decision-making skills, and possesses brilliant military tactics, powerful martial arts, and advanced alien weaponry. Optimus Prime has a strong sense of honor and justice, being dedicated to building peaceful and mutually beneficial co-existence with humans, the protection of life and liberty of all sentient species."

Based on the above the players must think Frost has one or more of the following characteristics:

  • strong moral character
  • excellent leadership
  • sound decision-making skills
  • possesses brilliant military tactics
  • has powerful martial arts skills
  • has advanced alien weaponry.

Or, the players are being deliberately ironic and he has none of them.

Or, that he's 'transformed' from being a crap forward.

In my very mediocre suburban football career in the 70's I was, in my last year nicknamed "Crasher" and a lot of opposition players were quite apprehensive at the start of every game as to who they were dealing with. I was given the Crasher moniker because I had stacked and written off another player's car in the off season! And how I did that is another storey.

Optimus Prime, whilst also the leader, is the biggest and strongest of the Autobots (good guy transformers). I don't think it's any deeper than he is a fair specimen.

Maybe he's a robot in disguise...

So I dug a little deeper into Transformers lore. Optimus is a red and blue fellow originally from the synthetic orange planet of Unicron, which employs the help of the Decepticon$ - led by Optimus's former mentor and now sworn enemy Mega-tom, a corrupted robot who had betrayed his original creator 'Primus'.

Either the players have too much time on their hands or I do.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
