[I Bleed Maroon]

Cry more. Keep your pointless snide remarks to yourself next time.

 

[_snafu_]

I remember when I was watching a game between Glebe and Annandale back in 1911 when a young Frank Burge burst onto the scene. I think they called him Chunky.

Haha, best of luck with that!

Not only have you exposed yourself multiple times on this site as a certified moron, you’ve now exposed yourself as a completely trash human being.
So good job by you.

 

[THE CHAMP]

John "mega merkin " ribot?
Andrew "the accountant" gee?

 

[2 weeks]

Dan "Underpants" Stains is a personal favourite.

Money Bill Williams another that makes me laugh.

 

[GongPanther]

Another Roy and H.G classic...

Terry Hill...'Fizzer'.

They used to call him Terry "Tee-Hee" Hill because of his non-funny joke cracking antics.

When Hill used to carry the ball in SOO matches,Roy & H.G. would go silent until some else got the ball.

How could they name him Hammer and not Sparkles on Australian Gladiator.

Remember about 10 years or so ago when Sparkles hammered the holy shit out of Mal Menninga (smell my finger) in that charity match? That certainly was a RLWTF moment.

Would like to see some footage of that match. Usually a bit of fun but 'Hammer' was apparently putting massive hits on Queenslanders all night, till the inevitable fight with monobrow.

That had to be closer to 20 years ago surely??

There was a French bloke who had a laughable stint at the Roosters, Remi Casty was his name.

Anyway he did f**k all but eat cheese and backoff so no one liked him enough to give him a nickname.

everybody calls him Elroy Jetson

 

[Maccas4177]

Can’t remember if it was big league or rlw that gave Ben Pomeroy the name “special needs penguin” but it was gold

and here I was all this time thinking it was Ben "penis fingers" Pommeroy.

 

[kdalymc]

Was Hammer that big in nrl? Or did he retire/get huge/ become gladiator?

Then throw punches in a charity legends match

 

[beave]

Pretty sure ‘Hammer’ broke his hand on Meninga’s head when he punched him in that legends game......

 

[peter file]

Scott "Shitty" Carter.

Well less than 20 years ago when I think of where I was at that time.
