My favourite on my first skim: Zha Zha G'Boom!

I haven't been to training for far too long and I'm sorry I missed you, but I hope to be donning my moniker (and skates) again in the near future, just as soon as Miss Genocide pops! I trust you'll be in the crowd come September.

Since when was Smash Malice meant to win the first bout?
Don't think you talked to anyone from that team...
Completely meh.

You're right I didn't talk to Smash Malice, but the "buzz" beforehand was that they were the favourites and they seemed to have more supporters (I was the?

"and then we're going to beat Auckland".

That's Pirate City to you, wenches! And remember, don't let your mouths write cheques that your frilly asses can't cash!

See you on the track, roller girls.

Wow. Does this skating have its own language?

Good blog and wonderful roller photo's my man.

Wow. Does this skating have its own language?

Adorable!

Yes, skaters are like race horses – each derby girl needs to have her skate name registered on a worldwide database, and if it's taken (or too similar to an existing name), you're not allowed to officially use it. For example,?

Yes.

... but then what sport doesn't?

Yes.

Fair question.

Football (unless Americans is commenting on it)

Fair question.

Really? Offside, centre back, and yellow card would all be completely clear to someone who hadn't ever watched a game of football?

Centre Back relates to a position on the field. The dialect up-thread doesn?t actually relate to any technical terms like that.

(ok?

ok, yeah, fair point.

I ran into an Auckland team at a backpackers in New Plymouth last year. I was super impressed that they kept up the names even at 7am on a Sunday... "wanna cup of tea, Carnage?" "yeah ta, 2 sugars thanks Femme"

Haha, that's because we don't even know each others?

Haha, that's because we don't even know each others real names anymore...

I went along to some of the Saturday skates (and will come back when I get over injury/flu issues) and I don't know anyone's real names. I kind of like it that way.

I've only ever been introduced to skaters by their?

Offside and yellow card are used in normal English.

Does yellow card have a usage that doesn't originate in sport?

And what about 'cross', 'bicycle kick', 'dribble', 'wall', 'striker', 'header', 'sweeper'. I presume soccer have team tactics like the 'offside trap', 'zone', 'man on man', 'give and go'.

All sports will have technical terms to describe things (although human wall has been adopted elsewhere too)

I was just making the point that skating seems to have its own language when not actually?

I've only ever been introduced to skaters by their assumed identities. It's like meeting the Justice League.

Yeah, when one of the fresh meat that I photographed mistakenly revealed her real name when I asked it felt like finding out who Superman was.

I think we need photographer names the?

Who was it? I'll smash her.

Yeah a little. I assume you mean like how skateboarders and surfers seem to have their own language.

Yup, and basketballers.

I think we need photographer names the next time we photograph roller derby, Mike. How about Shoot Mayhem and Len Stoodehead?...

If anyone is struggling for inspiration, I just stumbled across this Roller Derby name generator.

I think I'll go by Writer's Blocker. LegBreak could be... well, LegBreak is probably?

(I am good at this)

Mac Romode?

That's awesome, Jed should fully take it.
