I recall Roop and Goose using "scag" to refer to other guys. As for The Goose (Steve Bisley), you should have heard him at the Mad Max reunion.

Seems to me the Aussies are tops for colourful metaphors.
Well IIRC OZ did start out as a Brittish penal colony...It only makes sense that it would develop a rich tapestry of new cuss words and slang...
