The word is used to describe a person who has a large ego despite their obvious
mediocrity.
Commonly used in some parts of Australia, the word's namesake is a lower division
Australian soccer player named Frezegi who constantly touted his ability in not only the sport, but also the fields of music, billiards, dancing and acting. Despite his infamous boasting, he was usually outdone by his clearly superior, often
Italian, opponents.
