A suburban club found itself embroiled in controversy a few years back, when the players given the task of supplying the surnames of the best three players to a newspaper gave the false names Mike, Hunt, Hertz. These don't look unusual on their own, but put them together! Maybe the players had watched Porkys the night before.

As for the AFL, you can practically put together a team of unusual names that might be thought amusing:

Danny Dickfoss (Bris B & Bris L)
Donald Dickie (Port Adel)
William Dicks (St K)
Willie Dick (Ess)
Graham Johncock (Adel)
Herbert Woodcock (S Melb)
Richard "Dick" Condon (Coll)
J Hiscock (Melb)
Jayson Laycock (Ess)
Les Meek (St K)
David Pretty (N Melb)
Donald McDonald (N Melb)
Ronald McDonald (Rich)
David Honeybun (Rich)
Sonny Coward (Ess)
Gary Cowmeadow (S Melb)
Frank Crapper (N Melb), Fred Crapper (Rich), Harry Crapper (Melb)
Robert Roberts (Fitz)

And two umpires from yesteryear would probably be thankful they aren't umpiring today - E Coward & H "Ivo" Crapp!

Laughed uncontrolably when I saw the guys in bold

Imagine if they al lplayed in the same team. Crapper kicks to Crapper gives the hands off to Crapper and Crapper kicks the goal. That was Crap-tastic

Eljay Connors.

Not the worst name of the bunch, but when you pair it with his lovely mug it takes the cake! Pity he got the flick, the competition needs more comedic pieces like this.

LOL I love the pic

My apologies if this has already been said.....Andrew Swallow?

I remember hearing Dermott Brereton on The Footy Show (or some other football-related telecast) saying something to the effect of "young boy Swallow" while reading the "ins" for North Melbourne back in 2006. Others on the show took it as a sexual innuedo, and Brereton had to backtrack and claimed that he was just refering to the young player Andrew Swallow

Over the years, whenever I've heard the name Wayde Skipper, I've always thought of this character:

 

[andrew81186]

a chinese guy at school called Yoo Hoo, another guy called OK and another calls himself just K because he was allowed to choose an english name for himself.

 

[Byron_Clanger]

 

[emuboy]

Although they have normal names that aren't amusing in any way, there are some players whose names made them perfect fits for the clubs they played for, for example:

Ross Lyon - Played for Fitzroy
Archibald Swannie - Played for South Melbourne
Andrew Crowell - Played for Adelaide
John Richmond - Played for Richmond
Les Hawken - Played for Hawthorn

 

[richskee]

Stephen Tingay

 

[roostersgal4eva]

The 4th offical for one of the Reds Asian Champions Leauge games was Bin Ruusty

Fitting names for sportsman....Will Power amd Jamie Whincup (pronnounced win cup)

 

[roostersgal4eva]

I don't know about stupid names as mine Dalphonso is a common Portuguese name.John I guess would be laughed at by people in Brazil?No way Brazilians don't upset others in such a ridiculous manner.
This is a very stupid thread to poke fun at peoples names don't you think?
I am surprised moderators let it go on so much.Perhaps we can also poke fun at how ugly some players are or the colour of their skin ?

one of the Brazlian tems had Ronaldo, Ronahino and Fred lol

And could you think of another sport that has a captain kirk (just for any star trek fans out there)

 

[roostersgal4eva]

Gold Coast recruit Karmichael Hunt.

Referred to as K, or special K, or as Rabbits Warren inadvertently once called him with a "silent" H.

As a commentator you wouldnt want to accidently get the H and the K mixed up would you

there was a african world cup player in 2002 WC by the name of Singa Song - I kid you not!
