When Collingwood unveiled debutant Liam Puncher in their win over the Gold Coast Suns last weekend, many sat up and took notice of the kid's tough name.
Puncher. Gosh, that's a strong surname. Heaps of fodder for commentators, fans, and teammates alike. Taken in the recent Mid-Season Draft, the South Australian has taken his Puncher's chance, and run with it. Just wait until he becomes a 100-game pillar of Magpies' backlines of the future.
It got us here at ZH HQ mulling over some of the 22-year-old's contemporaries in this space.
Have a go at a dozen of my favourite names in the game!
1. Shadeau Brain
He's the only Shadeau to play Australian rules football, at least at the top level, so points are definitely awarded for originality. More than half of the letters in his first name are vowels. Niche.
Throw in a surname like Brain and you've got a truly one-of-one type setup.
Add in that he's a fringe player at a dynastic club and the picture becomes all the more clear.
Onya, Shadeau.
