Penrith Emus Rugby
Penrith Rugby Club, known as the Emus, is an Australian rugby union club based in Penrith, a western suburb of Sydney, New South Wales. The club was formed in 1965 as Nepean and renamed Penrith in 1981 and began playing in the Shute Shield in 1995 until their removal midway through the 2018 competition. Sydney Rugby Union chairman David Begg said the Emus had failed to 'meet the standards set for all clubs to compete at the premiership level'. The club was readmitted to the competition in 2020.

gollark: You could also say Βob, which is identical-looking but uses a capital β instead of an actual B.
gollark: Or, well, human languages™.
gollark: Unicode™!
gollark: Yes, that is actually B.
gollark: Advantages of 128-character full-charset names:- /view/n/ pages would still only hold one unique dragon- greater opportunities for creativity via use of anomalous Unicode- essentially infinite quantity of available names- can reuse names through use of invisible characters and/or homoglyphs- more efficient lyrical lineages - fewer dragons required per word- could store 2048 bits of data per name via base65536- can name them after people/things in other languagesDisadvantages:~~- cannot actually distinguish some names without a hexdump or something- pretty hard for people to actually use without knowledge of ridiculous Unicode stuff~~ none whatsoever
