    I had a teacher at school called Miss Sidebottom. I was close enough with her to ask her one day whether she got teased for her surname.

    That was the day I learned that the name Sidebottom is a powerhouse in the AFL. Both her brothers played and she had other relatives in the sport also. So no, she wasn’t teased at all.

    I still hear the name Sidebottom around the sport, some nephew or something I assume. It always makes me think of her. She was a great teacher.
