Im mates with Straussy and going out to get his no. today

What will he be wearing? Am I right in saying it will be no.13?

And what other players will be wearing what?

 

I wouldn't be rushing out to get his number until the club has actually announced which number he will be wearing....

All I know is that Jack Watts will be wearing number 4.

Watts surely No. 4

mate pass on our congratulations to Straussy and let him know that there is a dedicated, passionate mob of supporters at Demonland who welcome him to the club and wish him all the best.

Watts surely No. 4

I think Bail got 4

Would be apt, considering he was picked at 17.

Watts 4

Blease 9

Strauss 17

Bennell 28

Jetta 13

Bail 41

Sibber 34 PSD

If it's the same source as before Neita3000, then i trust ya! :lol:

haha nah mate just a wild punt.


I know we've said we'll be giving Watts #4, but i'd really love to see him running around in Neita's #9 for sentimentality's sake. One champion full-forward passes the baton onto our next one... romantic story wouldn't u say?

particularly if Watts ends up being skipper one day but that's obviously a massive call at this stage... although it is one of the many qualities being talked up about him

McLean and Grimes in the way for starters

Well the only real champion full foward we have ever had in fact wore #4

Please dont refer to Neitz as a Full Forward when he was clearly a Champion Centre Half Back

Even Flower played there and he is the Best Wingman i have seen in any jumper

Neitz and Flower both played a majority of their careers out of position

Neitz had the huge body to enable him to adapt

Which makes it even more astonishing that Flower could

Neitz was more of a CHF than a FF, though the arguement of where he played most of his footy will always make the issue a grey one. And it all depends on your definition of champion. Of the MFC? Of the AFL? Of modern footy?

Personally... and this is my opinion... I reckon he was a potentially great CHF who was played deeper. Due to his commitments and the need arising, he was played in 3 positions, diluting his influence in any one. So a champion of modern footy and the MFC he was, but there'll always be guys who'll get that tag of "AFL champion" over him. And that's ok. Says a lot about him that he was all about MFC, not his own reputation. I'd have changed nothing about him, or his career... only some of the players he had around him.

Back on the numbers. Is it customary to temporarily retire a number for a season out of respect? Is that why people have neglected number 9? If not I reckon it'd be a great nod to him to give it to Jack Watts... also there could be a rather ceremonious big deal made out about it when the jumper presentation happens where Neita can hand it over... Worth considering.

What is the fascination with who wears what number?

Seems pretty pointless....I like number 9 because its bold, captivating and Kobe Bryant of the LA Lakers once wore while playing for the US Olympic team so hopefully Strauss will turn out as skilled and agile as Kobe.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
