Who would we be thinking would be getting an upgrade/change in their guernsey number for 2009?

I'm thinking of some possibile ones:

CJ (Currently 38)
Eddy (Currently 40)
Attard (Currently 43)
Allen (Currently 36)
Mini (Currently 32)
Armitage (Currently 20)
Steven (Currently 34)
Connors (Currently 37)
Geary (Currently 42)

Something like...

CJ ==> 6 (I expect Fisher to be de-listed/traded)
Eddy ==> 15 (Gardi finishing)
Steven ==> 20 (Armo's #)
Armitage ==> 4 (Vacant atm)
Allen ==> 9 (G's old one - UNLESS we draft a KPP FWD, then it's his)
Geary ==> ?
Connors ==> ?
Mini ==> ? - Probably stay 32
Attard ==> ? 43 Seems alright

Also, retire 17 FOREVER. It is a jinx... Birss was horrible in the 17, and now Fiora has gotten worse in the 17!

Retire 35 for a year

Birss never wore 17 though.

Birss took over 22 from Fiora.

If we delist L Fisher, M Gardiner, M Ferguson, F Gehrig & R Harvey and elevate R Eddy and A McQualter, that leaves 4, 6, 9, 15, 21 & 35 open.

I don't think we should issue 35, at least for a year.

4 - Armitage
6 - Jones
9 - Allen
15 - Eddy
20 - 1st Round Draft Pick
21 - Geary
36 - 2nd Round Draft Pick
38 - 3rd Round Draft Pick
40 & 42 - New Rookies
 
I want Armo to get 35, but true, he hasnt show enough to get it....

Leave it for a couple years until we see another gun coming through.

Could BJ get 35? Defintely seems worthy I think.

Retiring 35 for a year or two might be a good idea.

I would only consider giving Jones a lower #. Lower # have to be deserved and should not be given out cheaply..
 
who says gardi is retiring? he's been playing good footy for the 2's. i dont think anyone who has a number lower than 35 will want it, can't see armo changing from 20, why did number 4 get retired? thompson wasnt anything particularly special

how about every st.k player wear number 1 because they have only won 1 premiership haha
Yes, but if they all wore #1, it would resemble a line of coke too much and every time they played your mob, your players would spend half the time trying to snort our backs.
 
I'd like Jones to get the 4, in particular because he's an older "rookie" (I know he's not technically a rookie, but you know what I mean), who's made a name for himself, primarily because of his toughness. That just cries out Andrew Thompson to me.

Armo's got enough ego to want to hold onto the 20 and make it his own (and I don't mean that as an insult - in this case, "ego is not a dirty word"...).

Guys don't be weak it's like 100 onto 1. We can kill the ****ing guy.

Mate, we've won 1 premiership, yep sure, but at least that one premiership was won with clean players mate. Since you've won no clean premierships.. Does that mean your players don't wear a number?
 
Mate the whole team would be on Cocaine if Cousins and Kerr came over. "the Ben Cousins meal, now new at Hungry Jacks. No burger, no fries just coke and ice"
 
him and sainter.. but sainter is usually resting

What a great identifier, I mean idea!

Grr L2H4G you have such a similar name to L2M4G, couldn't you have come up with something less similar to L2M4G, lucky 'Me's' avitar is some chinease old bloke so i can tell the difference.

Edit; unless you are related, or L2M4G creates a new account every september or some other explanation.
