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?

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
