Snouted has two lives. In its literal sense it simply means having a snout — applicable to animals from pigs to anteaters. In Australian slang (now dated), snouted meant being in trouble or falling out of favour — the kind of situation where someone's nose is metaphorically out of joint, or they're being looked down on. If you were snouted, someone was turning their nose up at you, or you'd gotten yourself into a mess that left you on the outer. The Australian sense taps into the same imagery of a snout raised in disdain.
He got snouted by the whole team after skipping the big match to go to a party.
