Beware Witches Hats bearing 'gifts'...

[Lampers 563]

Something to do with starting with a very high jumper number and then changing to a much lower one.

[Lampers 563]

Perhaps it’s just the player wore more than one jumper number for Melbourne. Jetta fits this but he startrted with 39, then wore 50 In one game, then back to 39.

Similar for Jack Grimes who started with 16 and then changed up to 31.

We jointly apologise for our lack of quiz etiquette.

 You guys are lucky it’s not a @Demonstonequiz. Your joint apology would fall on deaf ears. 😉

Lampers has indeed killed the quiz and is thus disqualified.

Demonstone is the winner.

Lampers also managed to kill part B which was going to ask which two went from a low number to a high number.

Mods, I expect a heavy suspension (unless it turns out Lampers' last name is Cotchin in which case a mild rebuke is fine).

See you in Disneyland

@Witches Hat, I presume @WalkingCivilWar and I just get a Cotchin no-hard-feelings handshake?

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,690]

In what order did Steven Tingay wear 52, 2 and 15 and Sean Charles wear 44, 1, 18? These orders  as recorded in my copy of 'Melbourne F.C. Since 1858 - An Illustrated History' (2008), suggest they join Nev and ol' Grimey?...

[Demonstone 23,573]

Don't forget Peter Moore, @Timothy Reddan-A'Blew.  He wore #10 in his first season with us before moving to #30.

Very good. Add Peter Moore as well who went from 10 to 30.

You get outright second @Timothy Reddan-A'Blewfor picking up my mistakes!! I should have done my research more thoroughly.

According to the impeccable Demonwiki, Tingay went 52 -> 15 ->2 and Charles 44 -> 18 -> 1.

That is also how I recall the sequence.  Your source may be incorrect (?).

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,690]

Thanks for the various follow-ups, @Witches Hat an @Demonstone. No mistakes there, Hat; my Tingay/Charles post was only an (albeit speculative😉) question. My google has 'lost the link' to Demonwiki, Stone, and the other usual sources are short on the info, so I only had recourse to my book. Stinga was No.2 in his pomp in the '90s (pivotal in rusting my children onto the Dees, btw); I certainly couldn't remember him in 15 later on.

Stone deserves the silver, Hat. @WalkingCivilWar and I will happily podium, dead-heated, on the third tier, eh, WCW?

[Timothy Reddan-A'Blew 5,690]

...though does it count that Stinga got - but never got to debut in - No.17 at the Swans?😁

Sure! We can share the podium. I’ll get Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. You can have what’s left. 
 

You’re welcome!

Forgot to acknowledge Tim’s heartfelt thanks in advance

@Witches Hat, we need all the quiznerds we can get, so I think newbie(?) @Lampers - who, after all, was impressively quick! - should be let off with an in-(quiz)house reprimand. And maybe a little something from the trophy cabinet?

[Lampers 563]

Sorry all, I didn’t realise the protocols.

Definitely a Certificate of Achievement at the very least!
