Re: Tell me why?
Somewhat embarrassingly, I can make an educated guess.
I take it as a reference to some quality "youth" TV - Jersey Shore.
The ladies on that show refer to their preferred types - muscled guys with an Italian-American heritage - as "meatballs".
Minchington looks a little like he fits their preferred type.

Why is that his nickname? I can't see what the connection is
Please explain!
It's because he's got big nuts.

Re: Tell me why?

I'll ask Loris.
but makes for good boundary line comments- from coaches box to bench-' So meatball's done for the day" Is meatball cooked for the day?"
and yes I have heard both..

The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?

In other news, Leigh Montagna is called "Joey", after an American baseballer "Joe Montagna".
Dempster is called " Shinners" because he used to kick the ball from his shins.
Sam Fisher is called "Chips" because chips go with fish.
Gilbert is called "Gumby" due to his awkwardness.

Fisher is called chips because at the time we had two.
One is now an umpire...fish
Sammy got called chips

Re: Tell me why?
I agree with those who think Richo sees a clone of himself in Gears. AR missed out on the Pies GF win, and he likes the battling defender with big heart but no polish.elizabethr wrote:Geary is known as Richo's pet.
"Richo- there's no room in AFL for warm n fuzzy.
Leigh Matthews hurt you in that pre-GF training session, for the greater good. Let Gears go, for the sake of the team!"
