Player's Nicknames

Red Rum was a great horse. Won the grand national 3 times.
Came second a couple as well. The bookies hated it.
I was too young to make any money on it though 🙁

See that Matt Ballin does'nt have a nickname. That's just not right. Surely the silvertails think tank can come up with something.Off the top of my head ballin' Ballin but I'm sure someone can do better than that.

This was posted by Volley on another thread here:

Matt Ballin is nicknamed Straight, because of the phrase 'straight ballin'.

Straight ballin refers to someone who's financially secure. The phrase was made famous by 2pacs song "st8 ballin".
