how about for goodes:

adam goodes: cant kick goals, cant catch marks.... either could be aprpriate

Penga didn't say that, it was Joe the Cameraman.

For some incomprehensible reason, Destructive calls Rowan Warfe "Klingon".
Another one of ours - Matthew Nicks is "New York".

[Diego]

Nick Davis="Soft Serve"

[Jimmy C]

What a lot of crap Penga, the bloke was our best player again today. Start bagging a few of the others before taking the terps out of our best player.

its not a load of crap, i didnt see he had a bad outting, i said it was what I found frustrating... he has loads of improvement to do just yet

[RogueSwan]

Fosdike - it used to be "Fearless Fosdike", not really apt now is it?

[sharp9]

SCHNEIDERMAN !!!!!! and don't you forget it.

What about Gum Drops as in "Goody, Goody?"

[Louellyn]

I think you are being a bit harsh Penga

The last few games Goodes has been a blinder. They all had an off day on Sunday, the disposals were appalling.

[RogueSwan]

Yeah good pick up , goodes has been in a bout half a dozen or so marking situations in the last fortnight where he has done all the hard work in positioning yet fumbles an easy mark for an afl player, he can take the big ones yet fumbles these, to lazy and for those shots at goal in the last qtr today...well dont even get me started on those!

Cheer Cheer

i think all this brownlow talk has gone to his head and he is tryin to be too tricky, one handed takes and the sorts, i found that the most frustrating thing all day, oh i mean 2nd most frustrating to Rowan 'GAWN' Warfe

And your witty suggestions for nicknames would be.....?

[treespirit]

Since his (lack of) effort annoyed me in the Hawthorn game I have been calling Nick Davis "Little Eddie".

I tend to refer to Goodes as "Ohhh Adam" quite often (that's not a criticism!!).

"Leaping" Leo Barry.

Schneider = "Little fella"

"Bloody" Warfe

[Johnny Roberts]

Given Cressa's 100% record this year, I think he should be nicknamed the "Barometer" .

Is it any coincidence this year that in the games he has missed we have been smashed in the centre bounces/ clearances?

Just highlights the swans reliance on him and our need to draft/ develop midfielders over the coming years as No.1 priority.

Fearless is news to me. I wonder the reasons behind it, and who gave it to him, because I always have seen fosdike as a receiver, not going in for the hard ball. Being a bit soft.

Well if we have "Schaubs" and "Bolts" maybe we could have "Balls"?

Warfe could be "Commander".

I didn't like the poor taste suggestion of "Bomber" for Mc.Veigh.

Craig Bolton could be "OMAHA" -
Out Muscled And Hardly Aggresive.

Warfe could also be "The Klingon" - Ducks head........

Or Maybe Yum Yum? Only one person may agree with that...

KB calls him Fearless and havent heard anybody else call him that.

Lt. Worf (pronounced 'Warfe') was the big turn-coat Klingon that was part of John Luc-Picard's crew on Star Trek - Next Generation.

Our Warfe is no doubt better looking, but I suspect that their Worf would be a more accurate handballer.

See, people like Destructive and myself have interests besides the Swans and the internet -- there's sci-fi TV shows as well!
