*Official* Team Naming Thread

[NZTailender]

You're a cruel bastard, sir.

We've had the idea before - it's moderately decent, but I don't think it should replace the league season. And what with the offseason being pretty packed with international tours and various Twenty20 competitions, it'd be tricky to fit in.

Is Sharma not Turbs? I did 95% of that from memory.

Can understand it not fitting in, and definitely shouldn't replace the league season. Would be an interesting 'what if' thing that's completely unofficial.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Is Sharma not Turbs? .

Indeed he is.

 

[NZTailender]

Indeed he is.

Flag threw me, tbh.

A few in there would be eligible for other countries. For those I wasn't sure on I went for their current residence.

AHEM!

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Demeza and Armstrong are WA, but Armstrong has been inactive since the first quarter.

 

[chaminda_00]

Doesn't Armstrong live in the ACT?

 

[superkingdave]

England struggling for pacemen....plenty of spinners though

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Doesn't Armstrong live in the ACT?

Irrelevant as he's INACTIVE and will NOT be returning.

 

[Shaggy Alfresco]

Im an American living in Bulgaria (though its isnt that I dont have links to England)

Tough ****, you're playing for us.

Shouldn't i be there somewhere?

 

[roseboy64]

Dunbar actually from the West Indies but is ineligible now I think.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Gooljar is Trinidadian, though of Indian descent.

Trindian.

 

[Matteh]

Irrelevant as he's INACTIVE and will NOT be returning.

Sure on that?

 

[GIMH]

I think this is a good idea as an unofficial offseason series. Perhaps split the Aussies up into NSW, Vic etc, as they could have at least two different sides just looking at that. Also perhaps combine Scot, Ire & Wales with mighty mighty England to create two UK sides?

I am easy with anything really, could be fun, always up for a bit of offseason shenanigans

Gray and Bennett and Rai have varying degrees of affinity with Scotland, don't they?

Mr Young was also notably fond of Aberystwyth as a holiday resort in his youth.

Sounds stricter than the qualifying rules for rugby league, this.

 

[GIMH]

If we're playing Rugby League rules than I qualify for Australia as I have an 'a' in my name, tbh
