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.

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

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

    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.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
