i doubt pickett will change from 50. And retire 13 for good. That jumper is cursed! Higgins, Yarran, Blumfield, mcmahon, powell, petterd, miller, Knobel. The pull on the tigers #13 and their career is done
How dare you!! McMahon's goal netted us Dusty.

Otherwise you're right, the rest can gagf

Parker is delist level lol, if we are upgrading guys like him, then it's purely a years on the list system and we may as well just bump up everyone that wants it.


This is right. He really should be delisted to be honest.

Graham should get number 6 though, if he wants it. Otherwise retire 12 for a year, until we get our next up and coming key forward, which I have no idea who that will now be...which is a little concerning.

I love graham in 34 .
Him , jeff Hogg and Graeme landy add a touch of class to the number .

I would Give no 6 to RCD , what a kick along that’d be for the young fella .

6. Mansell - get him sitting next to Baker
13. Ralphsmith - his dad wore 13 for 3 seasons while at the Saints
18. Rioli Jr - get him in the locker next to Daniel
24. Tarrant - can't have 25 because of Nankervis
28. Martyn - have RCD Dow & Martyn all together as the next midfield group coming through

12 & 14 have a year "retirement"

Leaves 30 31 36 38 40 41 42 43 45 47 48 49 for draftees/re-rookies/rookies

Graham has played five seasons, 77 games and two premierships in #34. It's not overly high to the point I think most sides would field a higher number most weeks. I think he stays in #34.

I think Pickett stays in #50. It's just him and part of his story - a mid-season mature-age recruit getting a high number and then turning into a two-time premiership player.

I think Stack can stay in #44. Just seems to suit him.

I can't see Daniel Rioli being shifted from #17. Maurice Rioli Sr also wore #27 at Punt Rd. Thomson Dow is in that number now so maybe MRJ could wear that and Dow be given a new number. That said if D Rioli was to depart the club then MRJ moves straight into #17.
 
24. Tarrant - can't have 25 because of Nankervis
28. Tyler Sonsie
30. Josh Gibcus
38. Sam Banks
40. Tom Brown (Dad wore 40 at Geelong)
41. Judson Clarke
47. Bigoa Nyoun

Hugo, RCD, Martyn, MRJ probably should wait another year imo. I like filling up the 40s and letting younger players prove themselves, but Gibcus as a top-10 pick deserves a higher number. I think Mansell is the one kid who should be rewarded with a new number for his exceptional effort. SPP selection, worked his arse off for a spot, early debut and plenty of senior games where he showed plenty.

I doubt even Gibcus will get an early number, if Dusty had to start in 36, I can't see us starting to make an exception now
