Supporters Nicknames for Players

[Sween54]

This may have been done to death but to start the ball rolling a few I have of course

Robert Murphy - Bohemian Bob
Callan Ward - Emergency
Farran Ray - Mercat

 

[BB1888]

Peter Street- Combie Man.

My wife remarked once that Streety doesn't look, move or appear to be anything like any other AFL footballer.
At this stage his hair was quite longish and she said that he 'looks like he should be smoking dope and driving a Combie Van around Nimbin'.

So I have always referred to him as Combie.

[gilbeegurl]

Murph = Smurph (was "Papa smurph" when Brad Murphy was also in the team)
Everitt = Charlotte (tenuous link, but his brother is spider and charlotte's web featured a spider )
Hahn = Truck (cos that's what the guy who sits behind me calls him)
Griffen = Terr-if (cos of that person who has that "terrif-griff" sign)
Lake = Lakeman (it sounds territorial, much like how he carries himself in the backline)

 

[RoyBoyTurnedDog]

My favourite real nicknames the players use are "House" for Murphy and "Flounder" for Griff. Still laughing at those two.
