bludger

One who loafs

A bludger is Australian and New Zealand slang for someone who avoids work or responsibility—a freeloader or scrounger.

The term carries contempt: Don't be a bludger, help us move these boxes.

To bludge is to shirk or to cadge something from others: He's always bludging cigarettes.

In the Harry Potter universe, a bludger is an enchanted ball that attacks players during Quidditch.
