Back to Bad club Nicknames

[Falcon Star]

I used to play for the Kookaburras, then played under 17's for the Buffalos. The following year I train with the Panthers and then the Bloods. I'm now at Flagstaff Hill, luckily they are now called the Falcons not the Bushpigs.

Actually, Kookaburras, Panthers, Bloods and even Falcons are not that uncommon. Buffs is pretty rare, as of course is Bushpigs :)

Footypedia listings (http://www.footypedia.com/NICKINDX.HTM) for :
Kookaburras - 6 (plus 7 x 'Burras', often short for Kookaburras)
Buffalos - 2
Panthers - 40
Bloods - 22
Falcons - 7
Bushpigs - 2

Mariners wasn't a great idea for a team name, well done to the brainiacs at Football Tasmania for that idea. I really don't like "Dockers" as a club nickname either.

[Falcon Star]

Nope, South Adelaide Panthers and West Adelaide Bloods.
