Eagles' Greatest Guernsey Number

[maverick001]

Standouts:
20: Cox, Gov
3: Judd, Mainy, Gaff. 100% strike rate
17: JK, Bluey, dare i say it.................Chick. Also 100% strike rate for those who have played a game.
9: Cousins, Nic Nat
27: Jako, Darling

Number 3 probably for longevity, but gee there's 10 All Australian guernseys in number 20.

Honourable mentions:
2: Kemp, Lecca
4: Kerr, Suma, Sheed, Glendenning
11: Smash McIntosh, Pridda, TK of late
1: Jobby, Flyin, Gardy
6: Yeo, Banners

Of the lower numbers, 15 the jumper you don't want, tho Crippa has been solid

 

[HAPPY BUDDHA]

#7 Craig Turley

 

[Monocle]

3

 

[Altum Volantes]

I think of 3 as the number that has been worn with most distinction across our 3 flag eras.

OP - you lose points for not listing Peter Wilson under #9.

Basically West Coast royalty - probably elevates 9 over 20 for me.

Mainy, Judd, Gaff
Wilson, Cousins, Nic
Bond, Coxy, Gov

(...and yes I know Nic and Gaff missed ‘18 but they would have been there if available!)

For pure royalty, nothing beats Ross Glendinning. He elevates no4 to the elite level.

 

[Falco]

No 4!

The only number to have been involved in all 4 premierships (and the losses that we don't speak about).

Suma ('92, '94), Kerr ('06), Sheed ('18, '21)

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

No 4!

The only number to have been involved in all 4 premierships (and the losses that we don't speak about).

Suma ('92, '94), Kerr ('06), Sheed ('18, '21)

14: Brennan, Brennan, Seaby, Duggan
17: McKenna, McKenna, Chick, Kennedy
18: Evans, Evans, RoJo, Venables

 

[Falco]

14: Brennan, Brennan, Seaby, Duggan
17: McKenna, McKenna, Chick, Kennedy
18: Evans, Evans, RoJo, Venables

Fair point

 

[Barrybran]

All-Australians are good and all but I'll be taking Mainy, Judd and Gaff over Cox and Gov every day of the week

 

[MrWoollie]

3 then 4 then 20.
