Where Do Sports Teams Get Their Nicknames?

from The Pool Room with Tony Armstrong · host iHeart Australia

When it comes to nicknames, most Aussie sports teams typically choose from one of two options: Animals, which don’t play sport, or words to describe great warriors. Like, the Magpies or the Power. The Sea Eagles or the Force. But behind every team name is an origin story that can tell you a lot about their communities and the place they call home.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
