Prediction 2026 Jumper Number Changes

[Quay Club]

View attachment 2487510

Would have liked to see Leon Kickett follow in Dale's footsteps and get 11.

But they usually choose numbers in the order they are drafted so fair enough to Tobyn.

I see Tobyn is mates with his ex Geelong Falcons team mate Josh Lindsay.

Sweid is also good mates with Duff-Tytler so there could be a bit of cross town fraternising going on between the cross town rivals.

I really really hope #7 has a year off.

I really really hope #7 has a year off.

Murray's number (11) would imply Sweid has 10. It all depends on McVee I suppose.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

I dont normally care too much about numbers but Kenobi must have either (May the) 4(th) or (order) 66. Nothing else is acceptable

[Pussinbootz]

Surely Bolton takes #10

Murphy wants it, don’t know if the club will let him.

where's this coming from? that would be a disservice to #16 and #7 if that came about

unless it comes with a 7 year signed contract?

Previous jumper numbers from our new players in 2025:

• Judd McVee #4 (Melbourne)
• Toby Whan #5 (South Fremantle Colts)
• Leon Kickett #9 (Swan Districts)
• Adam Sweid #23 (Calder Cannons)
• Mason Cox #46 (Collingwood)
• Ryda Luke #49 (South Fremantle Colts)
• Tobyn Murray #61 (Geelong Falcons)

I would think that Murray would get a lower than 61.Has any Fremantle player ever played a legue game in that number.
Of those selected this year, I would suspect that he , other than Cox, is the closest to getting an early game,

Not cool. #16 comes with its own whole history that shouldn’t be disrespected. Sorry Murph

Maybe he means Ollie Murphy?

 

[yakamoto]

Two many Murphy.

I hoped that when I read it, but someone else mentioned #16, so I thought it must be Bruce. Hope not.

Kenobi?

Is that Toby Whan Kenobi?

 

[freo_leo29]

Maybe he means Ollie Murphy?

Nah its Bruce

I get the feeling he won't change as doesn't want to disrespect though

 

[Spirit Level]

As if Bruce would change from 16, fits him way more that 7 does IMO

I always thought Ras could be a good candidate if he progresses and goes full beast mode.

 

[anchor man]

Maybe he means Ollie Murphy?

I wouldn't think Ollie has earnt that right yet. A long way from it.

 

[DeadEyeJye]

Bruce should back himself in to make his own history in his own number, and thats difficult to do if you choose, or are given, the number of a previous brownlow winner or games record holder etc.

 

[Docker82]

Mundy's number was retired for two years. I know he played more games than Fyfe but outside of that there is no reason we wouldn't give no.7 the same treatment.

And I love Mundy but Fyfe was a much better player than pretty much anyone for a while there so if we hadn't retired Mundy's number retiring Fyfe's would still be a consideration.

 

[Eski3]

Murphy wanting the number 7 surely at least indicates that he sees himself long term here and wanting to be part of the legacy though

 

[MakeshiftMartyr]

Didn't like it when Henry gave up Sandi's number, like Bruce moving even less.

 

[masai tu]

Please do not mention Henry and Sandi in the same sentence !!!!!.

That is headache material.

23 means a lot to the the indigenous boys and it’s not because of reasons you might think

Murphy wearing the monitor for 16 today.
McVee in 17.
