Better known as...

Postby Spargo » Wed Mar 30, 2016 10:18 pm

VFL / AFL players that were that good they had their own moniker.
There should be no need to name the player.
Please don't bother with "in club" names that most wouldn't know or care about.

Some that come to mind straight away;

The Macedonian Marvel
Fabulous Phil
The King
God
Tilt
The Flying Doormat
Lethal
Super boot
Disco
The Kid

I could go on...
2017 safooty NFL tipping champ
2024 champ, Spargo’s Good Friday Cup @ Ascot

I’ll wait for an angel, but I won’t hold my breath
