[royals1922]

Poll keeps resetting. Only votes for Jack Watts should not be counted. Thread should be divvied and OP is a Phag and Animal was the shittest muppet.

Port clear leaders

 

[Fruit_Platter]

The Fuschias or the Mayblooms


Fear inspiring

Mustard pots

 

[SydCrow]

I was coming here to post this, hahah.

As well as the VFL ones mentioned above there is the best of all, "Blood Stained Angels" (South) and possibly the worst, Essendon's "Blood Stained N*****s".

Both unofficial, but AFAIK there were no official mascots/nicknames until the 1980's when the VFL started to smarten up its licencing and branding.

Of the ones mentioned so far surely Semen Padang wins. I am never ordering that again.

The Padang is a lovely cream based sauce that offsets your Rendang.

Is there a team called the Blue Oysters? a quick Google reveals oh god an "e-sports team" called Blue Oyster Man Bar.

So no.

Houston Dynamo.

Named to give homage to eastern european soccer teams, however these teams were run by the stasi and the commie secret police.

Way to go america

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Or maybe Deportivo Wanka

 

[MAXIMUM GRUNDAGE]

Who were the Gorillas and the Butchers ??

Fitzroy and your mob (around the 1870s)

Jack there is no evidence nm were ever the shinboners before the mid to late 30s. Zero.

They were called the gluepotters though on more than one occasion as a result of their oval being a gluepot

I recall a story where Norf lured players with jobs in a local abattoir around the time of the Great Depression which is how the name came about.

That at least has some kind of historic semblance. My theory is they got it because of loutish football in the mid 30s.
