Player numbers
What number do you think the new guys will wear ?
King 2
Dempster 5
Schneider 13
Gardiner 24
or will we save the lower numbers for the draft picks ?

Not that jumper numbers mean all that much but I would like to see number 5 back out on the field more often. It has been worn by some great players for our club and we have not seen it since Aussie gave it away.
King 2 and wasn't Schneider 13 at Sydney?

I agree with your comment on number 5 but I feel the same way about number 4... I wouldn't mind seeing Gilbert being awarded the number 4 for his great season, however he may have become attached to number 19...

He could take it as a sign of faith in him and want to work that little bit harder for the club if he did....iceman wrote:What kind of a statement is that? should we pick jumior rioli he should have no say and do the apprenticeship in a higher number before getting reward for some hard work.SaintBot wrote:if we pick Junior Rioli he would want #2
Anyway from what I've heard about Junior he is a small forward flanker isn't he? Why would we need him now if we just picked up Schneider, I wouldn't mind picking up a hardnut inside midfielder like what I hear Ebert is supposed to be or even a future Key Back like Rance.... But this is all from hearsay I haven't actually seen any of the new crop play...

Re: Player numbers
not saying that he will get it nor deserves it but all throughout his young career he has doned the number 2 jumper and considering it is available im sured he would be thrilled if it was handed to himiceman wrote:What kind of a statement is that? should we pick jumior rioli he should have no say and do the apprenticeship in a higher number before getting reward for some hard work.SaintBot wrote:if we pick Junior Rioli he would want #2

Armo has a considerable way to go before he is elevated to a lower number (?)
If he wants it, Gilbo could have four for mine, though I note we have a quite distinguished player in #35.

IMO how high or low the number is has very little to do with how much of an honour it is to wear it, it is more the players who have worn that number before that is why 4 would be the highest honour available and when the great man retires there would have to be a very worthy candidate for that number to be given to anyone else...widereceiver wrote:Armo has a considerable way to go before he is elevated to a lower number (?)
