Not sure if this will ever happen, but a while ago the idea was floated by Ross that BigFooty members could get their name in the next game, so that the draft system would have some new names, instead of 5 Riewoldts, 7 Judds and 12 Abletts.
This would also mean that we could create ourselves in create-a-player and have Dennis properly commentate on us instead of using those silly nicknames.
So I thought, how about we start a thread where people can enter their surnames in, along with the pronunciation of it, and hopefully Big Ant will get them recorded for the next version. Worth a shot.
So I'll start. List your name, and the pronunciation of it as well, and I'll add it to the list. Then if you have mates, or your whole local footy team that you want to create, add their names also and we'll keep a separate list for them (so BigFooty members are the higher priority).
