    Default Monikers

    QLD was Banana Benders then went to Cane Toads
    NSW = Corn Stalks
    VIC = Gum Suckers
    SA = Crow Eaters
    WA = Sandgropers
    NT = Old Territorians
    ACT = Fat Galahs
    TAS = Tasweigans

    These were taken from a book I use to have but was loaned out and never given back, full of old bush yarns and bull s**it stories and sayings.
