It's KK47 or I riot.

Or KK62. A machine gun packs a punch!

Mur doc - I like what you say there. Kelly? We'll have a place on our list for him.

I'd even give him the number that is popular down here at Lorne which is #69.

Players wear it with pride and attitude.

1. VACANT

12. Draftee (Potentially Sam Sturt)

16. Steven May (1 better then his 17 at GC)

21. Draftee (Potentially Jay Lockhart. Think we've had a Tassie HBF in 21 before....)

23. VACANT

27. Kade Kolodjashnij  (1 better then his 28 he initially wore at the Suns)

32. Draftee (Potentially Toby Bedford)

34. DFA recruit  (Potentially Nathan Wright, wore this no at St Kilda)

37. Braydon Preuss  (like our 2 main rucks in 11 & 37)

40. Draftee (Potentially Mason Shaw)

41. Rookie Draftee (Potentially Corey Wagner, wore this no at Nth Melb)

43. VACANT 

46. Guy Walker (Max Walker debuted in this no)

47. VACANT 

48. VACANT 

49. VACANT 

50. Austin Bradtke  (same no Mark wore)

Hopefully number 1 will get a rest for a year or two. 

I agree, I’ve thought the #1 jinxed for years 

I saw on, I think it was instagram that Oliver had changed his username claytonoliver16 and Wagner had changed his username to 13 before promptly changing it. 

13. Wagner

16. Oliver

12 for Preuss so he is next to Max in the locker room.

Why the hell would Oliver change numbers?? 

And who would give Wagner a lower number??? He didn’t even play. Maybe 13 for Casey for Wagner?

if preuss and maxy are 1 and 11 bradtke will have to be 111

Or 12

I've got no real issues with giving No.1 to the right player, but alternatively, we could put it to one side and say to Jessy "we will just leave this waiting here for you when you get sick of Perth and loosing every week"

I recon Weid deserves a higher jumper number of his choosing.  Also sends a bit of a message that 'you da man'!

I'd be reluctant to give him 1 though, unless he had his heart set on it.

Good question, I am not sure.

Perhaps rather a Jinx.

Aside from Dennis Cordner way back in the ether, there have not been many great successes at the Club in this jumper. Certainly not in the last 50 years. 

For me, Jesse's time in that jumper was a disappointment.  And it spent a considerable amount of time in the locker.

Sorry, but I don't understand where you are comming from with either of these statements.  

Jessy's performance for a guy of his age would be top 5% in the league for a key forward.

He had practically one season out of 4 or 5 where he had a stuffed back and a dog of a year last year (but still played 10 games).  Asides from that he has played around 20 out of 22 games per season.

Personally I'm just disappointed that he isn't performing for us in it as both he and the team hit peak maturity and performance.

I like the idea of Vanders in 12 or 23.

Both numbers with a good tough nut tradition.

I was keen on May as 1 but 12 or 16 makes sense too. Bradtke as 50 I’d love to see that. 

I'd like 40 for Pruess

From the Big Russian to the Big Prussian. If not that then 37

 

I like the idea of May in number 1.

Reminds me of the days of 98 when Shanners was the full back. He will be always a Saint historically but I always had a soft spot for him.

I'd give the all important 23 to May, the 12 to KK and 16 to Preuss.

I think I’m happy for the FD to allocate how they see fit and I’ll just learn to love it. 

What about 12 for Preuss? The locker next to Gawn! 

Bundle numbers 43,47,48&49 for Kelly!

theyd have to expand the locker sizes no way those two boys r gonna be able to live side by side for the next 4 years without getting in each others way. theres a reason the reserve ruckmen r always in the high lockers no one is around them!!

May has been told by Goody he may play forward. So No.1 is obvious but no pressure.

1 May...... Mayday.  That's your nickname

Leave the numbers alone.

Hurrah moving from #48 jinxed him!
