DCE Contract clause.

[Napper]

Apparently he told Dave Perry if he is continually referred to as SID by Manly fans, he'll sign with Brisbane.

 

[HappilyManly]

Its not us, its his Team mates who call him that, its a term of affection

Just like you calling bones - FMD

Enjoy the Manly banter

 

[Dan]

It's could be worse, he could have a name like jughead

 

[RiverEagle]

And where do ya think ''Napper'' came from mate...?!

A nickname coined by the players.

If it's good enough for Cliffy it's good enough for me...lol!

(Tho Cliffy is God to me!)

 

[EagleFromMay1967]

Therefore, suggestions are open for a replacement nickname, more in keeping with Sid's er, Daly's sensibilities.
How about Turtle ? , or is that taken ?

I predict Jethro will have something . . . .? J ?

 

[Eagles2nv]

Haha, love it or hate I think its going to be here to stay.

Does anyone know joey, get him to refer to sid as sid for a few games on Tv

 

[RiverEagle]

I don't mind too much whatever we call him.

But perhaps we should just stick with DCE, Daly or Cherry (even Chez if ppl like) just until we can , or if we hear it's stuck with the players, or not.

I think it may stick now anyway.
But if we could somehow get the official drum, that would help!

and why would I have something?

I'm one of the ones who is not a fan of the "Sid" naming either but to each their own so I will just stick to "DCE" or "Daly" and cringe when I read him referred to as "Sid"

As for "Turtle", it has been suggested previously by Dan (I think).

 

[Ramrod]

From all the other interviews I've seen, the players call him "Chezza".

Hope that fence post isn't hurting your arse old mate. Nicknames become nicknames through common usage, and no-one picks their own nickname, it is bestowed by friends or enemies.

I dislike calling Sid DCE, the whole 3-initial thing is a DT invention which is pathetic, unimaginative, boring and should remain the domain of the rorters.

However I am a tolerant old bloke, so if you prefer a nickname bestowed by the daily telegraph and popularised by the rorters go ahead and use DCE.

But for those posters criticising the use of Sid, drop-off trying to impose your wishes on the those of us that prefer something with a bit more humour and personality.

 

[mosto]

Best way to get a nickname to stick is to openly say you don't like it. You'll have it for life.

 

[EagleFromMay1967]

Notice also mostly Nicknames are 1 syllable. Foz, Snake, Choc, Gift, Sid, or at least 1 vowel. More unusual are 2 vowel types: Killer, Skivvy, Ferris.

On this basis, Sid will survive, D(ee)C(ee)E(ee) will not, just too inconvenient to say.

 

[Clint]

In our household he is affectionately known as 'kid'.
Ironically, a name given to him by my 8yo son.

Lol mate. You make a lot of sense today.

I guess I was just trying to play peacemaker a bit (because it really doesn't bother me much, either way).

I can sort of see how it gives people the irrits, but I find it ''amoosing'' that some fellow members that adopt famous nicknames for themselves, object to this one!

And since you qualify things so well - as far as DCE being associated with the DT and the Rorters - I'm beginning to sway from atop my fence, your way now!

 

[globaleagle]

From now on, he shall be called Boris!

 

[RiverEagle]

Oh gawd global!

That's all we need now mate!

 

[Alan]

From now on, he shall be called Boris!

Idiot

Not idiot....Boris!


sheesh

 

[Frank]

I am assuming the nickname Sid is in reference to the character in the Ice-Age animated movie?
