What # is on your back?


The Jack of Grimes

Recommended Posts

I've got last year's with a number 16 on it.

This year I'm going with number 10, 12, 39 or 19.

Still to decide.

(actually, I want 39 for Nev Jetta, but I'm worried his number is pretty high and it may change in the near future.)

Maybe it'd be good to have Col's number on my back in his brownlow-winning season..?

If i were too buy a new Jumper it would be very hard to toss up between 12, 31, 9 and 35

I had No.2 from when I was a kid (still got the original) - Flower, Tingay, Armstrong, Jones.

Will be getting my son new one (1yo), still deciding. Leaning towards No.9 now. He can have my old ones too. The first looks a bit old and cruddy with the Drake logo though.

Come to think of it, there's not alot of love for Tapscott (No.35)...I might just elect for Tappy.

No. 16 of course, the only way to go... although I did temporarily want a 9 after what I saw last Saturday...

I am quite annoyed that they changed the colours... got it halfway through last year and now it's going to look decidedly purple and bright red... ah well. Would've preferred the new colour scheme, I'm a fan of it.

I’m ready to grace my back with a number. I’m tossing up between a few though;

1- Sounds a bit like Warlock, A big tall future horror for forwards everywhere

2- looks a little like Ablett, can't be a bad thing

4- Will one day (I hope soon) be the number to be seen in. It’s a fashion thing, doing it before everyone else.

6- 2010 will be the year that Bate marshals the forward line... and he has red hair.

7- I play a lot like this man in team sports, full of promise but my no means a star. I'm playing Forum footy and it has been foreseen (perhaps by a certain 'Warlock') that perhaps I'll look rather awkward :P

8- Because Frawley is clearly a Sherman battle tank

9- Getting on the bandwagon after one game, but who wouldn't.

I will only choose out of the single digit numbers as I'm trying to be thrifty...and I couldn't think up anymore unamusing tags. Will someone please help me decide?

    DERAILMENT by KC from Casey

    It wasn’t quite a trainwreck although at times, it sure looked like one, so I’ll settle for “derailment”.  The trip to Brighton Homes Arena in Springfield outside the back of Brisbane might not exactly be the same place where Homer Simpson’s family resides but, if you listened closely to the utterances of the Casey Demons fans both at the ground or watching via livestream, you could hear lots of groaning and plenty of expressions of “D'oh!” reverberating in the background, particular

    TEN YEARS AFTER by Whispering Jack

    Things have changed in the more than ten years since the West Coast Eagles decimated Melbourne by 93 points on the MCG early in the 2014 season. The two sides had not met at the home of football in the interim until yesterday when Melbourne won by a comfortable 54 points to remain in contention for this year’s finals series. Back in those days, the Demons were in the midst of their Great Depression but they have since tasted premiership glory and experienced a long enough period among

    POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    The Demons are back in the hunt for finals after a clinical victory over the West Coast Eagles at the MCG which was sealed after bursting out of the blocks with a seven goal to one first quarter.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well
