If you could change an AFL team's nickname

I actually think the dockers is the best one lol, very unique and yes, technically it is wrong but is very fitting to the city of Freo. Always reminds me of the Green Bay Packers in that their mascot is an occupation. American sports seem to relate their sports to their respective towns ie, Detroit Pistons (General Motors, Ford etc.) or the Indiana Pacers (Indi 500). IMO would have been much better if the West Coast where named the Sandgropers or Black Swans instead.

Green Bay Packers wasn't named for a common occupation - naming rights were given to the Indian Packing Company in return for starting equipment, etc.

Corporate naming rights has been fairly popular in areas like Japan and Korea, but to do it in Australia would probably not be hugely welcomed by your fans if it became part of the actual team name (eg. the Carlton VisyBlues, or the Hyundai Brisbane Lions).
