Opinion 2021 player jumper numbers

[Agent Smith]

GilWS & Gil Coast are both having Family Days.

They're expecting 100% member turnout, but will be well within restrictions on group gatherings.

Hire-A-Crowd numbers will be well down this year.

While generally true, I think Mat Walker got 33 as a draftee. Doesn't have the long history like the numbers 3,5,15,etc. But pretty significant recent history.

Apart from 34, it was the highest number available though. And that's how they give them out

Paul Dear and Leon Rice dislike this post.

Yes, but they'd be the only two. Apart from them I struggle to remember another outstanding #13.

Bocca Cheney, Squizzy Taylor were serviceable.
JOR bog average.

Yep, not our best number.

Scott Wade for his services to Australian cricket?

Russell Shields was ok.

Yep. Thought Shields could hold his own, in the late 80s.

 

[Stratton24]

No 44? WTF
Retire 36 and bring back 44!

 

[MrPremiership]

Have the socks changed this year?

From the captaincy photo shoot, it looked like we've gone back to gold only socks (just a bit of brown at the stop), rather than the striped look.

Can anyone confirm?

One other note, does someone get Scully's 21 jumper? A late upgrade or we just keep it vacant for a year?

retired before the start of the year, X.Ellis made a late switch from 32 to 8.

Moore to 21 would be awesome but not convinced we'll see any movement on jumper numbers this late.

That potentially gives Bravo (or any other SSP/MSD signing) the number 44.

Like to have that back running around

 

[TylerDurden]

Moore. 21 please.

 

[MrPremiership]

Moore. 21 please.

Like to see Finn in it

7 and 9 will be available next year.

Yes, yes, yes. Bring back the 44!

F**k me you got BB being capt for 1 whole season

 

[Brant]

F**k me you got BB being capt for 1 whole season

Can't re-allocate jumper mid season so we have to assume BB plays out the whole year, even if it means we play him CHB/FF or any other place that he shouldn't be played in, that negatively impacts the side.

Sorry, to clarify, are you saying he'll be Captain for more than 1 year?

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

If he’s not burdened with playing ruck each week and he can be used as a utility, he may well be.

He’s looking super fit at the moment.

I sincerely hope so

I agree with this.

I don't think it's good for the side unless the slimming down has afforded him an increase in speed, but I agree that what you said is likely correct.

In fairness, I think BB @ CHB will work better this year than it did last year (2020), as will Cegs in the ruck.

 

[Coathanger]

If we're serious then BB rucking and resting forward(always good of a goal or two a game) is where he is best suited.
If Hartigan & DGB go alright he won't required down back.
Gee's he'd clunk marks & kick more goals than Timmy & Lewis combined.
