The following are not options : Crows, Lions, Blues, Magpies, Bombers, Dockers, Cats, Hawks, Demons, Kangaroos, Power, Tigers, Saints, Swans, Eagles, Bulldogs

Here's some of the more common ones :
Bloods
Rovers
Kookaburras
Panthers
Grasshoppers

Imperials

Any ideas which would be most prolific?

In the NT we have a couple of unique names but the rest are commn. Unique ones are.

Buffaloes
Crocodiles
Waratahs


Thats the unigue ones form the NTFL, unless my mind is working well enough at 12:30 am :p

Of course there are nicknames like United and the Combine, emphasising previous mergers, there are a few teams called the Cobras, (Richmond Centrals, Kilsyth amd Canterbury and the old V.F.A. team Camberwell) as well
 
Here in the SANFL there are a four clubs which use some of the less-used nicknames:

West Adelaide Bloods, South Adelaide Panthers, Norwood Redlegs, North Adelaide Roosters and Woodville Warriors which is now merged with West Torrens. Blighty played with Woodville!

I know the VFL has some clubs with some pretty unusual nicknames.
 
The Bullants (Preston), the Zebras (Sandringham), the Scorpians (Springvale), the Borough (Port Melbourne), the Roosters (North Ballarat), the Dolphins (Frankston), the Mustangs (Box Hill), and the Bendigo Diggers are just a few of the many names in the VFL.
