Murphy is certain to get no.3 - the new buzz going around is that Digby was delisted just so the young one can get the jumper :D

Yeah, 9 has taken a battering somewhat after Clarke had it for 2 years..!
Battered thats being nice to the jumper, what a disgrace clarke was to it, must have made hickmont sick to see what happened to it.Hopefully Saddington gets it.

Who,s getting number 5? Its time it was brought back out, i think we should give it to Kennedy.

I would consider giving Bentick a crack at the lower number of number 9, if they can give 7 to davies, at least you know Bentick has a crack every week.
Murphy 3
Kennedy 5
Bower 10
Edwards 9 ( if bentick does not take it) or give him 16 straight away
Saddington 18

TheKopEnd we cannot give Edwards,or anyone for that matter, jumper number 16. campo, as much as some of u guys dont like it, was a servant of the club and played in a premiership, sop his jumper will be retired for at least a year, starting next year.

They'll keep No.5 in mothballs for one more season until Sam Sheldon arrives you'd think.

Good call, seems pretty logical to me.
Hopefully by the time Tomi Johnston arrives, Davies will have departed and he can wear his old mans number as well.

I'm willing to bet that somebody is running around in the number 16 jumper next year. Let's only retire jumpers after a fair dinkum champion has worn it!

let's get over campo leaving the club, we have some exciting kids on the list and a new bright future to look to.

at the end of the day campo wore #16 in a premiership winning team and his jumper will be retired for min 1 season

the carlton FC retiring the #16 jumper for 1 season shows the club has some class and is bigger than the induvidual

Ninja, ill take up that bet.

it is a tradition of the carlton football club to retire the guernsey number of premiership players for a year aftrer they retire. IT IS A TRADITION!!!!! whether or not he was an absolute ********er in the way he left the club, he was still a premiership player and hence the number 16 will be retired for season 2006

anyone who thinks that they will change this tradition because this certain player was much maligned by supporters of club and general footy are absolute morons.

I agree Bentick deserves a lower number. He's a gun.
