Nickname for Rhys

Post: # 937938Post St Loxton »

Does Rhys Stanley have a nickname around the club? Just interested if he does yet, maybe our creative forumites could suggest a suitable one for him.

Man I thought I was clever as soon as I read the title of the thread I automatically thought this.

Maybe we are both clever.

The 'Knife'? As in Stanley Knife?

Nah. Crap.


"The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break in the game. Every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

around my house we are calling him "SPIDEY", after the creator of Spiderman, Stan Lee.
It helps that young Rhys is all arms and legs.

All and sundry are welcome to that one...
