    Most annoying teammate? Brandon White
    Funniest teammate? Lachlan Batten/Gach Nyoun
    Nickname? Collo

    Never would have picked that!

    And on the subject of names, what is it with all the Bailey's around these days? Bailey Dale, Bailey Rice and now Bailey Williams.
    As a teacher sometimes you see waves of names coming through. Courtney, Bree, etc etc.

    Haha.
    For Collins I like The Inevitable. It won't stick yet there does seem to me an historic imperative at work with the Western Bulldogs.
    Shades also of Michael Collins, great Irish leader.

    They probably clocked the mo and thought "this blokes not supposed to be here, get him off the stage"
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Actually, Bevmo (good one Redders) looks a bit like Sammy The Turk, who in the movie tells Chopper he's a Footscray fan shortly before Chopper ends the friendship. Never visit Bojangles Bevmo.

    Not sure nicknames with too many syllables work - remember Bonti even has his nickname "The Future" shortened to simply "Fooch" around the club
