Cooney cos of his hair, Bradley cos of his unusal mobility for a guy that tall and John Holmes (if he gets drafted)
Who do u think?
Trotter, because of his hair. :D

Llane Spaanderman if he gets drafted.
Definitely Holmes.
Quite a lot of "going hard" quips for that young man!

Fergus Watts
What a name.

Daniel Jackson with all the Stargate SG1 fans.
Gotta agree with Kepler Bradley. Not silky or an aesthetically pleasing player but he will be a gun!

Does he speak 23 languages, including Ancient Egyptian?
Yes I know, I'm a little obsessive with Stargate... ;)

Watts and Morrison. With the clubs these two ended up at, its guaranteed. Well done me.
They are already proposing naming the pies new offices after their recognised star Bill Morrison.

Farren Ray for mine. Unusual name that rolls off the tongue, supremely talented, tougher than he looks and weird looking to boot.

I just saw him on Fox Footy earlier. His eyebrows could have a cult following of there own.

Eddie Sansbury, because he is already.
Tashi was wrapped, and when she read he was related to Wellsy, things took a nasty turn. Poor bloke. He doesn't have any idea what is awaiting him (possibly at the airport).
Farren Ray - sounds like a 'good-ole-boy' from Kentucky

And he has a son too.. Jnr's kid is going to have a friend as soon as he/she is born:D
I wonder if he knows Wellsy very well..?! If he doesn't, he is about to get to know his cousin very well.. sweet:D
Now we just need to rookie Davey- then we will have Jnr's cousin as well:D Everybodys happy:D

Colin Sylvia is already a cult figure amongst Demon fans.
Fergus Watts, he's a dude.

Bill Morrison will be the biggest cult figure of the lot, I reckon.
What a classic western-style name.
Bo Nixon, Luke Shackleton and Billy Morrison sounds more like a B-Grade 1940's flick then a future premiership trio.
I give it 72 hours before someone calls him Billy the Kid.

Harry Miller is related to Wells as well - bonus points for us.
If he gets a game Stevie Kenna will be very popular.

The new bad boy brothers (Cousins) of the AFL, look out the Scott brothers the new breed are in town :D .
Brock Mclean will have a huge following but probably not amongst the women, he along with Cooney and Miller are probably the ugliest blokes ive ever seen drafted:p .

Kepler "Wessels" Bradley

cult status seems to require either
a funnny hairstyle
a funny name - first or last
a rude head
a bit of personality
an unusual physique or way of moving it.
Freakish skills are another way to do it, I guess, but these can actually count for something on the scoreboard.

Agree u could also say they require speech inpeaderments or body size i.e a player told he was to small for AFL or someone gangly who can do freakish things. Bradley;)
Ben Kinnear is somewhat of a cult hero amongst some people here. He is poorly skilled, plays the game boring as anything and has normal hair. To most people though he is that super dud villain.

Nice try, but you can't make "Julian" a scary name. You'll have to find a completely new name for him - like Tex. Actually, every name on that list after Billy sounds a bit wet.
