New Guernsey Numbers

[NAUGHT5]

Luke Mitchell to wear the great #25

Others confirmed later today.

 

[Shambolic]

Great to hear.

Retire it for a year, then bring it out on the back of a new hope.

Watson would have to get #9 or #10? Please let #10 go to someone good.

9 Lucas
10 Watson
14 McLean
15 Laidler
16 Collins
24 McCarthy
25 Mitchell
26 McInnes
34 Duigan

7 seems to be vacant. Davey Ellard? or Jeffy? or AJ?

 

[Salaryman]

No consideration for keeping the 16 for Bucks??

Yep find that strange. Possible that Ratts wants to give him his old number.

 

[ericpascoe]

Doesnt look like it but if 7 is left vacant, Im sure Collins could move to 7 next year if they wanted to give Bucks 16. If they are going to leave a low number vacant this year though, it would have made more sense to fill 7 and leave 16.

Why would we change Mcleans no.?


Mitchell @25

Watson @10 Perfect..

Duigan @34 is apt.

 

[Salaryman]

makes sense, cheers ep

Mclean wanted 14. It was the number his grandad and uncle wore

 

[Salaryman]

Duigan should have got 26 to match his age

Traditionally don't defenders wear higher numbers??

SOS wore 1, Sexton wore 14

Glad that wasn't on the Blueseum questionnaire.

 

[Salaryman]

SOS wore 1, Sexton wore 14

Shutup you

 

[Silvagnis]

Giving Collins the number 16 for a year is a brilliant slap in the face for Grigg.

1. Walker
2. Russell
3. Murphy
4. Gibbs
5. Judd
6. Simpson
7.
8. Kreuzer
9. Lucas
10. Watson

Delicious.

Buckley might slide into the number seven next year.

 

[Sublime]

Lucas 9

Love it.

 

[zeeCFC]

McLean is an honourable bloke, like the 14...he badly wants to do well in 2010!

wouldve liked if they filled the no.7 just so we could have an awesome group of players 1-10

I guess that number 20 will stay with O'keeffe for 2011.

Sends a shiver down my spine does that list.

Well played once again Carlton Football Club

 

[Stamos]

There would be a chance that Buckley would not want to wear his father's number, wouldn't there?

He won't get that opportunity.
Have you ever met Jimmy?

I would imagine they spoke to buckley jnr and offered the number 16 to him but he knocked it back.

Some father sons don't want the same number as their old man like gazza jnr and others embrace it like SOS.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I am not a fan of players changing numbers. When they play their 100th game they get their number on their locker but they would not have played 100 games wearing that number. Also a little confusing.

 

[Mister Carlton]

Very happy with the jumper selections. Especially Nick Duigan!

Funny but I feel the opposite. I think rookies like Garlett White AJ and Ellard with numbers in the high 30's or 40's should move down to lower numbers when they're promoted. We used to do it more - Ratts, Bentick, Setanta, Hamill, Mil Hanna etc. Seems to have changed in recent years. I'm glad to see Lucas down to 9. ep

 

[Silvagnis]

Agreed.

We might give Buckley the number seven to complete the top ten.

Number ten is cursed!

They should have put Watson in Sexton's 14, Dean's 35 or Christou's 39.

And the numbers still aren't up on the players page.

I like gun players getting high numbers.

Hamill moved from 36 to four, so that's ample evidence that players should keep their original number.
