I have no problem with Zaka. It's easy to say. Big deal. If something better comes along then go with it, otherwise don't try too hard to think of something

I did like that they replaced one Roger lookalike with another (#11).

I don't think ZAKA is a "cult hero". Zaka is just a star with silky smooth skills rain hail or shine! and will go close on winning rising star and is a future Leader for the club!
Now Riemers is the clubs "cult hero"!!
he's got the boots, the anger management problem and all! haha
GO DONS! TOP 4 after round 6!

Got no problem with zaka as a nickname...
considering he said himself on dons website his nickname is zaka.
if it works for him it works for me

Don't know about cult hero , but he's my new favourite current player .
Obviously Jimmy remains my all-time No.1

This is not to take anything away from Zaka as I think he has a bright future - but I think the next EFC cult hero will definitely be Reimers.
He will be an Akermanis type of player - we will all love him, and everyone else will absolutely hate him.

Kick the winning goal and you are a hero but overall he did not do a lot.
10 possessions for a midfielder is not a great return.
He has played much better in previous games but gets the hero worship for a great goal

Actually, it's ZAKI - at least that's how names were abreviated in Cyprus when I was working there.
Got # 7 on my new jumper the Mrs got me for xmas. Gave her a choice of #7 or #3 (don't like to pick the obvious, although last time that resulted in #20 for Ted Richards
!).Was looking like an inspired choice until...
Surely Leroy will still prove my faith correct though.....

He's had hero worship for a while on BB.
Agree. Not until fans are using a derivative of his name as their BF Username (perhaps combined with a suggestion of a frenzy), will he be considered a "cult" hero!

Zaka's form has been up and down and is struggling a bit.
He could be due for a rest or a game ot two at Bendigo !
I would like to play him this week for 2 reasons
1) experience at playing at an interstate venue
2) the club does have injuries

Same bro, Bombershop was out of 3's, which constitutes for like 4 of my fav players.

Was it a sew-on number? I'm guessing it was. 7 is much easier than 3.
If you'd given her carte blanche, she would have come back with 1.... or maybe 11.
Although the 20 is puzzling. Did she just get a new Janome at the time!

Surely numbers dont get sewn on still?

LMAO
No chance my mrs would be sewing numbers on!
Its an iron on number, but I think they did it for her at the Bombershop anyway?
I ironed on the #20 in 2002-03 & must have done it too well..... couldn't get the damn things off after he got traded and now have two weird deformed numbers on the back
. Wanted to replace it with # 15 as a sort of continuation following the trade.

lol
- 'cult' it is then
Too classy to be a cult hero. Cult hero`s are more in the battler zone such as Jack Mihochek or God forbid, Mark Bolton. The current one would have to be Mick Quinn. Zaka is way above a cult hero.
