Before the young ones forget ,perhaps we could list some of the great nicknames of the past(publishable).
The standouts for me are:
Zulu Zulu Zulu :D
Moose Moose Moose :D
And at Norths in the 60s and 70s a certain brothers forward was known as hospital pass
I can still remember the chants as Leon or Campbell charged at the opposition line or the ahhs as the pass hit the support .......at the same time as the defence :shock:

Shagger..I'll leave that one alone :shock:
Bowie........Beaustead
Hammer....I believet the original was Mick Walker from Norths(He had polio as a kid).Then Valleys stole his brother and the knickname.Mick was a very hard man,
Trixie.....The immortal Trixie Salter.....enjoyed cofronting bikies at the Balmoral for relaxation.The Balmoral was a little bit different in those days.The present yuppies would have found it challenging 8)
Dinger.......There been a couple of Bells at Norths with the knickname Dinger, the latest being Darren.
