My Number Conspiracy Thread

[jabbers]

Firstly, I do have a connection at Carey Grammar and have posted previously about the alleged commitment already made to a certain father-son option. Did anyone else notice the first number that has been left vacant this year? http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/news/2013-11-29/new-draftees-receive-their-numbers Could this have been set aside to offer to the possible father-son so he can follow in his illustrious father's footsteps?

Just saying..

I sure did I was about to make a thread about it my self you beat me to it.

 

[jackcass]

It was vacant during the 2013 season as well so if a conspiracy, it's one they've been working at for some time.

 

[Hinequarters]

Wouldn't he get 35 for a year as our 1st pick draft choice?

The rumours are they have been committed to him for a few years now.

 

[jackcass]

So yo

The rumours are they have been committed to him for a few years now.

So you think they'll give him 30, a number made famous by such luminaries as Danny Roach, Ben Kinnear, and Luke Mullins... ahhh the romance in footy hasn't died.

Hopefully we can orchestrate getting him for a 3rd or 4th round pick.

 

[Seedsfan]

Well he dropped out of the AIS academy and I don't see another club bidding on him

 

[Lockyer24]

99% likely

Looking at those numbers it makes me wonder what number Scharenberg will get next season. In saying that there will be the minimum 3 list changes.

Good point about #35 going to the #1 pick, maybe they'll say it goes to the first live draft selection?

30 belonged to Ben Richmond in 2013.

Well, #5 will be available end of next year...

I much as I've loved what Maxy has done for us, I think this will be the case.

 

[Optimax]

We leave a number vacant most years

In 2010 it was 23 for instance

Sorry to go off topic but who gets the famous #5 next

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Sorry to go off topic but who gets the famous #5 next

Maxy can keep it regardless

 

[rustyg70]

I was under the impression that our Captain had first choice on the famous number 5.

Do you think Pendles would changed if he was offered the captaincy?

 

[Robroy22]

I think Sharon will be given 5 ( at Maxy's request) and Pendles will stay with 10 this year as captain!

 

[rustyg70]

Do you think Pendles would changed if he was offered the captaincy?

Nah, I think he will stay at number 10 and make it an even more sought after jumper than number 5.
Nearly every one that still puts a number on the back of their jumper would never have seen Bucks play anyway.

Who's Bucks? lol

5 was Bubba Price and Ronnie McKeown wasn't it?

 

[DermiesLuvChild]

Ronnie was 25

 

[Robroy22]

Ronnie was 25

He was when he started....but when he finished he was wearing 5.

Terry Waters & Rotten Ronnie Wearmouth also wore 5 & both played over 150 games.

You are correct. Changed from 25 to 5 in 1990. Didn't bring any luck, just missing out on the 1990 GF.
