Players with meaningful names

[The '47ers]

It's interesting names that are derived from an occupation, I'm guessing Slater's mob worked with slate, (how observant, I should've been in Forensic)
Cooper=Barrel maker, Fletcher=arrows, Smith=worker of metals. Then there's Butcher, Baker, Carpenter, etc.
In time we might get Mick Helpdesk.

Probably be Aravinda Helpdesk

 

[Captain Moondog]

Greenberg= Knob Jockey

 

[Peter C]

He worked all over on stations around Kunnunurra and over into the NT around Katherine. He had a Mrs stashed in Port Lincoln, so he travelled NT, WA and SA all over and loved every minute of .

Is that until he went back to Port Lincoln?

My all term favourite was Pale Ale. I think he was with the Storm and ended up back in QLD. Not sure but I think his nick name was Coopers

No, he broke up with his wife. She stayed in Lincoln with her family and he moved over to CQ with our family for a while. He died on January 10th 1988 when he and a mate of his crashed their car near Dululu.

His name was Steven Morris. 6ft 5in of lean, larrikin, tough as nails young bushman. I've never met another bloke like him. He could find the funny side f any situation. The sheilas loved him, the blokes were wary of him, he loved a laugh and didn't mind a blue either. He was 25 when he died. I still miss the big bastard dearly.

Shaun Johnson?
Extreme manscaping

I was beginning to wonder if a thread was developing at Penrith last year, with Man-Sore and Hard-Acher in the same team . . . .
