Has anyone got any official word on Moles? Perhaps he isn't delisted after all, he isn't named here.

It's confusing as some lists had him delisted and others didn't,yet his named disappeared off the Geelong players list on the GFC site but there's been no mention on the GFC site he was delisted.Every other delisted player was mentioned in articles on the GFC site.

Re: New Numbers for Draftees

The bit that was most interest in the article is:

Matthew Egan’s number 19 jumper will be held aside in the hope that he can return to the Cats list following his rehabilitation program. Matthew Egan’s number 19 jumper will be held aside in the hope that he can return to the Cats list following his rehabilitation program.

Surely we are dreaming if we think Matty can make it back now.
 
Re: New Numbers for Draftees

It may be a dream but it's a nice gesture by the club none the less.

I also like the fact that Harley's #2 not being used this year.

Let's hope Menzel's career doesn't turn out like that of our recently departed #10. :eek:

You only have to look at his highlights vid to see that he should be better than Tenace. What I liked was that when he got the ball in the back half he looked inside and kicked well into the corridor rather than take the easy option and go out wide.

When I was reading about him getting #10 I thought it was going to say, "Menzel will be taking number 10, the number made famous by Kane Tenace".:D

Could the #10 jumper be a bit of a bad luck number for it's wearer. We only have to look back at its recent owners.
Kane Tenace
Grant Tanner
Stephen Hooper
I am pretty sure they all wore 10. Not you most illustrious of careers there.

I liked Roscoe tanner as a player I think he was very underated and done he's job for the team. I also think Tom Gillies is being groomed for the number 2

Don't forget Darren Troy :p


I reckon Mitch Duncan is in more strife than Daniel Menzel when it comes to number selection.
 
Re: 2010 Geelong list changes (including guernsey numbers)

Did Michael Woolnough's son wear number 10? I remember that his father did before he took off to Richmond. Woolnough Jr. had a bad time with knee injuries as I remember.

How do you think that Lonergan feels? He had to part with a kidney after wearing the accursed number 13.

Poor Menzel and the Tenace jumper :eek: He'll be better though one hopes

Christensen getting the DJ is a nice vote of confidence.

Surely the Egan thing is a pipedream. Next to no chance.

The biggest chuckle I had was 41- Mummy to Cowan...It's like the before and afters on the biggest loser :p

Collingwood :)

But yes Woolnough Snr and Jnr both wore 10.

Tenace was actually lucky. The three guys that wore 10 before him all had career ending knee injuries.

A couple of legends of the club have worn 13 though (Bert Rankin and Arthur 'Bull' Coghlan), and in our time there was also Paul Sarah.

I looked at the players that have worn 22, and it's been the definition of slim pickings for 100 years. Only Bluey Hampshire and Tom Morrow have worn 22 in more than 100 games.

Re: 2010 Geelong list changes (including guernsey numbers)

I would love to see Gillies get the number 2 after this season if he keeps improving. You see it happen more at other clubs, Geelong aren't big on retired greats 'handing down' numbers, but I like the idea.

Do you agree with these numbers. Do you think someone could of got a lower number in the Tens or something.

Do you think Tom Harley's number 2 should of been kept vacant. Do you Matthew Egans number 19 should of been kept vacant?

I was in the same grade as Paul Jeffreys at Tate Street Primary School out Thomson way. He came close to 100 but could only manage 91. But that's one or two years ago now.

He was a really impressive player-coach Goggin loved him -too thin and iunjury prone however.
