| Post subject: Great Names in football |  |
|
Collingwood has our very own Steele Sidebottom, which is indisputably a great name.
A couple of draftees names catch the eye this year.
Geelong picked up Wylie Buzza. The Coyote is a Ben Brown lookalike, hopefully not as good but a great name nonetheless.
Carlton picked up a kid called Jesse Glass-McCasker. Sounds like a Scottish goon bag  
A new Zealand cricketer named Bob Cunis once copped anecdotally a great sledge when a radio commentator described a shot he played as being like his name, neither one thing or the other
Any other great names out there in AFL? It's off season, have a bit of fun.
Edit. Shit. I meant to put this in GD. Any danger of a mod moving it, but please not to the nether world of other AFL.
Don't worry, I'll do it.

What about Tyson Goldsack - gotta be worth a mention surely
And I love Tendai Mzungu - every time I hear his name called it takes me back to Uganda where we white folk are mzungu and kids and adults alike would greet you with (or yell at a distance) " mzungu how are you? "

A bloke I used to work with has been doing some charity work over in Uganda. He reckons it means "person who comes and goes" not colour specific.

That may be the historical origin but it is now used almost universally used by the general masses and not in a derogatory way to refer to white folk and Europeans.
I hope he is not one of the God bothering fcktards that are over there filling their heads with nonsense like for example - circumcision prevents AIDS!!!

The Australian term for that is Wombat.
