Can we put together a list of our current players' real nicknames, meaning the ones that are used by the players' themselves, rather than the ones supporters might like to use? I know Jones is 'Chunk' but what are other players known as?  I've heard some people call Harmes 'Nut' and others call him 'Chomp'. But are either, or both, actually what his team-mates use? 

If posters want to add their own ideas, please make clear it's not the player's true nickname. What I want this thread to tell me is what players' nicknames actually are.

 

 

From the pocket profiles on the club website.

Fritsch: Fritta, Bayls

Petracca: Trac

Gawn: Dougy

T-Mac: ....T-Mac

Spargo: Spargs, Chuck

Brayshaw: Stallion, Ticker, Rooster (not sure if this is Gus taking the [censored] on his profile)

Some other well known ones:

Hibberd: Pig 

Oliver: Clarry

Neal-Bullen: Nibbler 

Kennedy-Harris: Jay Kay

 

 

Im assuming May will be Stevo or Maysie?


Jones: Chunk 

Preuss: Goose 

Oskar Baker: The baby maker 

Mitch Hannan: The cannon

Mitch Koladjasnijnch: Mitch

Preuss:The Pudding

Ethan : Soul Trader

 

At a couple of kids clinics this year I’ve heard the players call Salem ‘Salo’ Or ‘Say-Lo’.

Where's @Petraccattack's genius when you need it?

Brayden Preuss  -  The Preussmeister General

Steven May  -  Skullcrusher

Kade Koladashnij  -  MGA

Austin Bradtke -  Tallboy

Guy Walker -   What a Guy or WAG

 

Looking forward to announcing the official nicknames for our new draftees on draft night.

Spargo is nicknamed 'Chuck'... I've always had the thought of this lookalike.

He was pretty firey as a first year player and that could get even more accentuated as he gets more physical strength and confidence.  Could almost be said to have the personality of Chucky as well.

Could be a good asset to have a player that gets under the skin of the opposition and their supporters every week.  Could be our improved version of Hayden Ballantyne.

Not that bloody literally, but it wouldn't hurt if he was the equivalent of a killer on the footy feild.  Every good team gains from having a few players with a bit of mongrel and killer instinct, providing that agression is well focused and controlled.  Watching how he plays, I think Spargo fits that mold pretty well.


No coincidence that this thread appears after Cameron Pedersen leaves.

I've always called Mitch  Hannan ...Jimmy, a few younger folks may not get the reference.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
