The Player Nicknames Thread

[SBD Gonzalez]

Orright, Bedders is right, we need a thread where we can contribute players' nicknames (a) so we all know who TF posters are talking about and (b) so that the abundance of virtuosic wordsmiths that are such a frequently remarked-upon feature of the Swans board can get to dazzle us all with their rapier-like wit and alluring japery.

I've only got a few but I'm sure there's plenty I've forgotten and anyway, I've no doubt this will rapidly spin completely out of control.

Have at it!

Number 1 is wrong

You're right

1. Chad Warner - MegaGiga Chad

 

[Dubai Quacker]

I’m sure I recall someone referred to Adams as Tay Tay.

I hope I’m wrong.

McLean is Dossa.

Wicks is Candles.

Ladhams Pistol.

I’m not sure if Grundy can be “Reg”, as I think it was already allocated to Heath?

Cleary is chips.

 

[dosser]

Amartey is "the pirate"

Cleary is chips.

Chips is good, I like that.

Probs going to show my ignorance of pop culture now, but can you explain Dossa?

Actually, give him his full title, Ladhams is Pistol Pete.

Ladhams could also be Family.

I like Tay Tay.

- Juzza - not very creative but .. We may need to think of something that's matching his new profile - i.e. "Toots" - toots his own horn but also follows through;-)

 

[Ticky009]

Are we going with known onfield names like Juzzy or Heens OR whatever the frack we post halfway tanked?

 

[zyzzbruh]

Can we get a glossary for some of Bedders terms too pls? I still don't know what GWR stands for or which team 'scum' is.

 

[rustycrate]

I was actually thinking yesterday that would be a good idea fora new thread.
Greater Western Rats
St Scum in the black white and red.

 

[RilesMacca]

Regarding GWR

How the average person views gws:



How Bedford views gws:

 

[caesar88]

He needs his own spectrum when it comes to nicknames for people.

"Rex Hunt"
"Henry the Third"


"Oxygen Thief"

"Rat"



"Poindexter"
"Champ"




"He's alright"


"Great bloke"

 

[ChickenSalt]

Hayden ---> Haydos ---> Dossa

Also “Dos” is Spanish for “two”

 

[Dubai Quacker]

James Rowbottom - Rowie or Paddlebum
Justin McInerney - Juzza - not very creative but .. We may need to think of something that's matching his new profile - i.e. "Toots" - toots his own horn but also follows through;-)

McInerney was apparently known as “Torana”.

Because he’s the type of bloke that’d turn up to your house in a burnt orange Torana, wearing a flanno and carrying a 6-pack of VB.

 

[SBD Gonzalez]

Are we going with known onfield names like Juzzy or Heens OR whatever the frack we post halfway tanked?

Why not both?
