I thought "Cheat Code" was better. Tasmanian devil is too long and just a cheesy attempt at forcing a nickname.

“Tasmanian Devil” works if he’s Australian. Otherwise it makes zero sense. It’s like randomly calling a non-Italian player “The Italian Stallion”. It makes no sense and whoever is putting this out there obviously has no idea that Tasmania is in Australia.

Honey badgers don’t live in North America and that seemed to work.

Regardless, people trying to hard with nicknames for Perkins’s. It’s going to be whatever the team or media give him, not what’s on the TRant.

You don’t have to. But you’ll know who’s being talked about.

The “Tasmanian Devil” is just derivative and doesn’t quite fit. I mean, it’s not awful, but it’s not great either.



But I don’t think any one nickname is important either.

It’s that you know who’s being talked about

I personally like the waterboy. Sure he’s a hell of a lot smarter than Ole Bobby so it sounds demeaning. But honestly what’s Harold’s position? Go get the damn ball haha.
