Why is it so? !!

Post: # 440037Post Eastern »

Almost every player in the AFL is refered to by their Surname. That is every player except FRASER Gehrig. He is simply known as FRASER. Is it because he is an enigma? Is it because he has 2 surnames and no christian name? Is it because James Brayshaw isn't the only media commentator who chyts his pants at the sight of FRASER? Is it just because he is a LEGEND?

Any other reasons? :wink: :wink: !!

Damn these topics that don't give any insight into the thread! I've clicked on this thread 3 times now.

Unlike your username, which is the result of a mis-timed enema.
