If I can mix fandoms (though one at least is a bit suspect these days), number 6 is becoming our Defense Against the Dark Arts number these days - someone comes in, wears it and leaves again quick smart.

    Well spotted, 31! Perhaps it should be retired, having (since Matthew Bate) adorned Mitch Clark, Chris Dawes, Jordan Lewis, Luke Jackson and Brodie Grundy!

    Mitch Clark had jumper number #11 as I recall.

     

    But yes, it would be nice for a new Demons player to have jumper number #6 for a significant amount of time.

    Jack Billings wore jumper number #15. So therefore, he could possibly move to #14 or to whatever number is available.

    (1) Supremely correct 🙂 Thanks!

    (2) Frankly*, yes!

     

    * Adams or Davis for the younger among you!

    With some trepidation, I extend @Stretch Johnson's original line of thought, over on the Billings thread, to suggest #28 (or thereabouts?)

    He'll have to fight Rooey for it.  Do you mean #4 perhaps?

    4. Harley Reid - Would be fitting having Jack Watts present him his jumper.

    6. Vacant. Potential new number for McVee if he wants it.

    14. Jack Billings (wore 15 at St Kilda)

    23. Shane McAdam (same number as at Adelaide)

    27. Kynan Brown (reckon we'll grab him with our pick 42. Close to Nathan's old number)

    34. Tom Fullerton (because)

    39. Rookie pick.

    Many thanks, Tilly!

    I went looking for it but couldn't find it. You'd think it would've been in at least one of the longer online 'top' lists!

    I hope I got close from memory😁

    In the Amos I was no 10. Didn't care for it much and Amos being Amos there were no Jumpers for every round under the Sun and so, one day when playing our arch enemies ""The Bloods"I got my jumper ripped to shreds when I had.. Er an altercation with several of their players, Result the Only Jumper left at the bottom of the Bag which smelled like Mouse and Cockroach infested with a bit of Slithera Venom mixed with other Secretions which one could only imagine was this Moth eaten thing .... no 73. Anyway I played a cracker of a game in this thing, wondering why no one would come near me and so paid for a New Jumper proudly wearing No 73. Moral of the story..... 7 and 3 make!

    But we were so nice! I'm sorry to hear we developed arch enemies!

    Guess we won't hear for a while but will be interesting to see what numbers all our recruits will receive.

    Don't think we did a # reveal like some other clubs did tonight?

    Perhaps #4 to Windsor and #6 to Tholstrup?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
