Hannas to wear no 10

Hannebery handed No. 10

Star midfielder Dan Hannebery has been honoured with St Kilda’s most famous jumper.
The No. 10
Newly-acquired Saint Dan Hannebery has been honoured with the No. 10 locker at Moorabbin, the ex-Swans star confirmed at a press conference on Thursday morning.
Hannebery becomes the latest name in a long list of decorated Saints to wear the famous number, regarded by many as the most prestigious at the football club.
A total of seven Saints have won the club best-and-fairest wearing the No. 10, including champion forward Bill Mohr, Brownlow medallist Neil Roberts, star ruckman Carl Ditterich and more recently hard nut Steven Baker.
But the weight of expectation is unlikely to overawe Hannebery, who was presented with the great Tony Lockett's old No. 4 guernsey at the Swans as a 17-year-old.
"It’s obviously a pretty famous number here at the Saints," he said at Park on Thursday.
"There's a lot of history around it, and I’m pretty proud and privileged to have the opportunity to wear it, I’m looking forward to it."
In 1915, the No. 10 jumper was worn by the famous Roy Cazaly for a season, but its true folklore began in 1929 when an untried young forward from Wagga was handed the jumper for his first game.
Bill Mohr went on to enjoy a mighty career spanning 13 seasons. The first Saint to score 100 goals in a season, he was the club’s greatest full-forward before Tony Lockett.
Keith Rosewarne first wore the jumper in 1946 and heralded his arrival with a Best and Fairest win. After Rosewarne’s departure, Neil Roberts was elevated from Number 33, and in 1958, he won the Brownlow Medal, the high point in a storied career.
In later years, Roberts’ son Michael “inherited” the jumper.
From 1986, it was bestowed upon ruckmen Warren Jones, Paul Harding and Darren Flanigan. After Flanigan’s sole season at the club, it was handed to a young bloke from the under-19s – Peter Everitt.
Like Ditterich 30 years earlier, the kid made a stunning debut and went on to win a Best and Fairest.
Everitt, Ditterich, Rosewarne and Mohr had all been brand new to league football when they first wore the number 10.
Along the way, it was also worn briefly by Sam Loxton, a dual sportsman who was part of Don Bradman’s 1948 Invincibles.
It is a special jumper, proven when it was briefly handed to a battling ruckman David Granger in 1979, and after just a single game, it was retrieved and he was allocated Number 37.
And Hannebery will be hoping to resurrect the No. 10 jumper to all its former glory, after a quiet few years for the famous number.

Not a great omen. Last worn by a questionable trade player with a history of medical issues. Now worn by a questionable trade player with a history of medical issues with red hair

Great stuff. Hannerbrey looks good in the 10. Really looking forward to seeing him play.
Posters that have admitted they were wrong about Hanna's gastro and the club didn't create a cover story.

Saint Dan takes prestigious number, has 'point to prove' - http://m.afl.com.au/news/2018-11-15/sai ... t-to-prove
Interesting comments.
#One of the reasons Dan liked the Saints was because of the A grade medical setup.
#Thinks Tom Jok is worth a go. Interesting.

Re: Hannas to wear no 10
Well this trade has really grown on me. Seems a very positive bloke. Love the fact he has come back early.
.The club just really needs some spark and belief around it.

Re: Hannas to wear no 10
history of medical issues???? Hannebery has played an average of 21 games a season over 10 years! He is one of the most resilient players in the competition.DJ Higgins wrote: ↑Thu 15 Nov 2018 2:20pm Not a great omen. Last worn by a questionable trade player with a history of medical issues.

Re: Hannas to wear no 10
Yep. Fastest Swan to reach a 100 or 200 games too from memory. Hannebery is keen to get back to his best. Interesting comment when he said all the critics don't know the full story from the past couple of years, but he doesn't care about it...he just wants to get back to his best. All class and leadership.BringBackMadDog wrote: ↑Thu 15 Nov 2018 7:14pmhistory of medical issues???? Hannebery has played an average of 21 games a season over 10 years!

Re: Hannas to wear no 10
Uncanny. D Hannebery has 10 characters. Can he now divulge how the Swans a) perceived the Saints over Richo's tenure and b) how they were able to mercilessly flog us as a matter of routine - or is that commercial in confidence and Agents #86 and #99 are needed to find out the answers. Control of course, by the way, did not have an Agent number 10.

Appears no. Hanners has privileged status.

Worth the read. The whole article I mean.
"He is certain his approach will have him ready to roll when round one comes around as he wears a jumper number most recently worn by Nathan Freeman, but made famous at St Kilda by Carl Ditterich, Peter Everitt and Steven Baker. And he is confident the Saints will improve too.
"They are a lot better club than what they showed [in 2018] and the club, as well as myself, have got a lot to prove next year which is exciting," Hannebery said.
It's November. Hannebery knows his chance to answer won't come until much later.
What happens now can only determine the strength of his response.
"You do need a little bit of luck but at the same time I am really confident that with [my] work ethic and a little bit of management I will be fine," Hannebery said."
