I believe there are some restrictions on the number of games played, however when I visited the locker room at AAMI park some yers ago I was intrigued to see so many names on each locker (not sure about locker48 though). I was on a quick tour and had no time to take too much notice. Still I’m not sure if you played just one or two games you’d be given the honour.

I have no proof but I guarantee you Heritier Lumumba does not have his number on a locker. You'd at least have to have hit some kind of milestone. Not sure 50 cuts it but I'd assume 100 games in a number gets you on the locker.

99.9% sure its 100 games. Perhaps there are also exceptions for Captains and which may see Trengove with his name on the locker.

From what I've read here it sounds like these are the following numbers.

Jackson 6

Langdon 15 

Tomlinson 20?  

Rivers 24 

Picket 36 

Is that accurate?

You are probably correct but there would be exceptions as you say: e.g. Steve  O’Dwyer! 100 games is also apparently when they are offered MCC membership (full not restricted I’m informed). Certainly beats waiting 30+ years.

Only played 84 games with us, but did win a Best & Fairest so I imagine that would also qualify.

Sounds right to me.   I think somebody posted that Mitch Brown was in Bull Smith's old 38.

Forgot about him, cheers.

Luke Jackson – No.6

Ed Langdon – No.15 

Adam Tomlinson – No.20

Trent Rivers – No.24

What did I just watch? If it wasn’t for DL summarizing it I still wouldn’t be any the wiser. 

One of the more unnecessarily stupid videos I’ve seen for a while.

All three new draftees have numbers which are a multiple of six.

And we know 6 6 6 is demonic.

It is also a rule change we struggled with last year and aim to adapt to this year.

Coincidence? 

i think not.

I called Kozzie to 36. Reckon it's a great choice, a chance for him to add his own history to the number.

They had them last year so I don't know what happened to the negatives.

That was then, 2019.  That was all negative.

We're talking 2020,  an even year,  and one for growth.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    The Dees were blown out of the water early by the Fremantle Dockers before fighting back and going down by 19 points in their final practice match of the preseason before Round 1. Remember it's only a practice match if you lose.

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
