New player numbers - Nearest to the pin

[St Loxton]

Participate if you want, something to do, nothing serious.......geez im bored.

Anyway, match the vacant numbers with the incomming players, the closest may win a burnt CD from may iTunes account (my choice).

1 - Tom Hickey
8 - Sam Dunnell ( 38 becomes vacant )
9 - Tom Lee
17 - TDL
18 - Spencer White
30 - Lewis Pierce
34 - Nathan Wright
35 - Josh Saunders
38 - Roberton
42 - Brodie Murdoch

[dragit]

CD's are so 1996, but I'll play

1 - Lee
8 - Simpkin
9 - Hickey
17 - Wright
18 - Dunell
30 - White
34 - Murdoch
35 - Col Saunders
38 - Pierce
39 - TDL
40 - Tippett

Even Stanley might be up for an upgrade from 28…

Is there a maximum highest number allowable? 99 would be cool…

[borderbarry]

1.. Wright
8. Stanley
9.. Hickey
17.. Lee

18 dunell
28 wright
30 white
34 murdoch
35 saunders

[Scoop]

I'll have a go at three of them....

[Spinner]

8 - Lee
9 - Wright
17 - TDL
18 - White

All other numbers, doesnt matter.

[Dave McNamara]

Whatever..,

but just keep a number free for the enfant terrible of the draft,

and save No 1 for a saints supporter... that's a nice tradition.

[St Chris]

1 - Lee
8 - Hickey
9 - Wright
17 - Murdoch
18 - White
30 - Hyphen
35 - Saunders
38 - Pierce

Something like that....

[noob]

I'd give Pierce #35 just so he is completely opposite to Robert Harvey so people can't rave about it so much..

[Scoop]

I'll have a go at three of them....

#1.....Hickey
#8.....Lee
#18...Stanley

Let me try that again....

#1......Hickey
#8......TDL
#9......Lee
#18....White
#30....Murdoch
#34....Wright
#35....Saunders
#42....Pierce

TOM Hickey has been handed a special honour by his new club in the form of the number one guernsey.

The former Gold Coast ruckman will wear the jumper number made famous at the Saints by former captain and club icon Trevor Barker.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Hickey said it was a privilege to inherit the number that became available after Jason Gram’s departure at the end of 2012.

“You walk around Linen House Centre and you see paintings and photos of Trevor Barker everywhere,” Hickey told saints.com.au.

“You can see how highly he was regarded by the Saints and it is an honour for me to wear the no. 1 jumper.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Draftee Josh Saunders is the newest occupant of the no. 35 guernsey made famous by Robert Harvey.

Harvey wore 35 for all but four of his 383 games with St Kilda, winning two Brownlow medals and four club best and fairests in a glittering career.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Tomorrow: saints.com.au will reveal the new numbers for Tom Lee, Lewis Pearce, Spencer White, Nathan Wright, Brodie Murdoch, Trent Dennis-Lane and Dylan Roberton.

[SainterK]

Number 1 jumper, next aim...number 1 ruckman?

Update:
39 + 40 are still with us. So I say:
42 Roberton

With today's two number announcements I'm 2 out of 2.
Best guessing streak I've had for a long time.

Every time I see a picture of Hickey he looks like more of a nutter.

[St Ick]

Yet another reason to be excited about Saunders!!! Going early on this kid...

[dragit]

Number 1 jumper, next aim...number 1 ruckman?

You would think so… I wouldn't be handing Ben the captaincy just yet, nothing worse than having a skipper who isn't in the best 22, which could be the case if Hickey comes on.
