Early days given we're pre trade/draft but thought it'd be good to get some early discussion.

Current free numbers:

2, 23, 27, 37, 46

Potential free numbers based on trade scuttlebutt:

1, 3, 4, 15, 20

Personally, I'd love to put Caminiti in the #23 just to have the big wrecking ball forward in it again. Additionally I think we should give Pou his wish and give him the #2, I don't think Spud would want it in mothballs forever and also think a kid with as much character as Pou is perfect to be the next one to wear it. Coops into #27 might be fun as well for a bit of Jason Blake memories.
 
Love 23 for Buckets Caminiti and another dead-eyed Saint Heater's old 24 for the Shaman, keep them together. Totally agree with Pou in 2, too.

Maybe I'd get Moose in 27; a good ruckin' number.

If Gresh does leave, the next #4 will be highly sought after surely, but dont see any of our current list wanting to step up, so maybe box it til one of our '22 or '23 draftees shows enough potential?

2 - Mattaes Phillipou - He wanted it last year. I think he did enough to earn it.

4 - Anthony Caminiti - Let's get the big #4 kicking bags again.

23 - Liam Henry - Same number he had at Freo.

24 - Paddy Dow

25 - Dylan Shiel

27 - 1st pick
in the draft.

37 - 2nd pick in the draft.

I like Sharman in #43. Not sure Keeler or Heath get an upgrade before they debut.

Big plugger Caminiti in the #4 would be just something if it worked out..

With you on all of those choices, except Shiel haha he can have Doultan Langlangs 46
 
I’m not sure what the club is thinking with spuds number 2, but I reckon it would be a nice touch to have our captain wear the number 2 from here on in. Maybe that’s why it has been left vacant for the last couple of years, once steeleys reign as captain ends, the next appointed captain resumes the 2. Could be as early as next year with Wilks in the number 2.

obviously a lot to play out in trade period,but something like:

1-phillipou
2-Wilkie (C)
4-Shiel *
15-Dow *
23-Henry *
25-caminiti
27-Heath
37-draftee
42-draftee
44-draftee

Can't see Wilkie walking away from milneys number, has been a blessing for him

1: Caminiti
2: Henry
4: Sharman
23:
27: Dow

Quite like Mattaes in 25
May as well back in the young forwards who’ve shown plenty
23 up for grabs (Hotton, Keller, Heath) next year

I'd be a big fan of Liam Henry getting the number 1 locker. We need a dasher in it.

1 Henry
2 Phillipou
4 boxed for a year until a player steps up and claims it with excellence
23 Caminiti
24 Sharman
25 Dow
27 Heath

looks pretty good to me
Still like this original idea but here's a plan B;

1 Caminiti &
2 Phillipou seem like mates, put them together
15 Dow next to his old team-mate Stocker
23 Henry like at Freo
the rest as above
 
1 Henry
2 Wilkie (if not, then Wood, someone that displays those Spud qualities)
4 Phillipou
15 Dow
23 Heath
24 Keeler
25 Caminiti
27 Sharman

37, 40, 42, 43, 44, 45 vacant for draftees, rookies
 
Ok. 2nd attempt:

1 - Lachie O'Brien* (DFA)
2 - Phillipou
4 - Caminiti
15 - Dow
23 - Henry
24 - Koltyn Tholstrup*
25 - Arie Shoenmaker*
27 - James Stewart* (DFA)
