Seeking Players Nicknames

[hoody]

I enjoyed the thread seeking a nickname for Joel Selwood.
Outside of the obvious and well known nicknames, there must be a few good ones floating about in Catland.
To get the ball rolling my household all scream "Her..vay......" whenever Stokesy does some of his magic.
Named after Hervé Villechaize (the little fella on Fantasy Island).

Call me a conservative yobbo, but most of my nicknames devolve to 'Nath' or 'Stokesy', rather than anything more exotic. The exceptions to the rule:

Enright - Boris
Selwood - The Timber Merchant (I'm officially on the crosby bandwagon)
Ablett - Junior
SJ - Dog, alternatively 'bloody Steve Johnson'
The Natural - The Natural

There's a supposed resemblance between him and Boris Karloff I think? He had that nickname before even coming to Geelong.

Well I think so anyway, my memory's dodgy at best.
