[Barunga Bullet]

i doubt pickett will change from 50. And retire 13 for good. That jumper is cursed! Higgins, Yarran, Blumfield, mcmahon, powell, petterd, miller, Knobel. The pull on the tigers #13 and their career is done

How dare you!! McMahon's goal netted us Dusty.

Otherwise you're right, the rest can gagf

 

[Infamy]

I can't see Pickett or Graham changing from their premiership numbers
I don't think Parker has earned a number upgrade yet either

Stack may want to change, but I think he suits #44

 

[juss]

Parker is delist level lol, if we are upgrading guys like him, then it's purely a years on the list system and we may as well just bump up everyone that wants it.

Phil Egan went ok

This is right. He really should be delisted to be honest.

Graham should get number 6 though, if he wants it. Otherwise retire 12 for a year, until we get our next up and coming key forward, which I have no idea who that will now be...which is a little concerning.

I love graham in 34 .
Him , jeff Hogg and Graeme landy add a touch of class to the number .

I would Give no 6 to RCD , what a kick along that’d be for the young fella .

6. Mansell - get him sitting next to Baker
13. Ralphsmith - his dad wore 13 for 3 seasons while at the Saints
18. Rioli Jr - get him in the locker next to Daniel
24. Tarrant - can't have 25 because of Nankervis
28. Martyn - have RCD Dow & Martyn all together as the next midfield group coming through

12 & 14 have a year "retirement"

Leaves 30 31 36 38 40 41 42 43 45 47 48 49 for draftees/re-rookies/rookies

 

[BF Tiger]

Graham has played five seasons, 77 games and two premierships in #34. It's not overly high to the point I think most sides would field a higher number most weeks. I think he stays in #34.

I think Pickett stays in #50. It's just him and part of his story - a mid-season mature-age recruit getting a high number and then turning into a two-time premiership player.

I think Stack can stay in #44. Just seems to suit him.

I can't see Daniel Rioli

being shifted from #17. Maurice Rioli Sr also wore #27 at Punt Rd. Thomson Dow is in that number now so maybe MRJ could wear that and Dow be given a new number. That said if D Rioli was to depart the club then MRJ moves straight into #17.

 

[Rubber Hips]

just give Gibcus #12…no need to wait a season or 2 for the inevitable to happen

 

[beema limapep]

"Its just a number" - Richmond fans.

"Let them pay penance! They owe me personally.
Are lucky to be on the list!" - same Richmond fans.

24. Tarrant - can't have 25 because of Nankervis

[Rioli2Rioli]

Before anybody starts talking about giving any player the number #8 for when Jack Retires let me just say its taken

#8 - Koby Cockshell

Shouldn't be too far off... Other teams are announcing now.

Hugo, RCD, Martyn, MRJ probably should wait another year imo. I like filling up the 40s and letting younger players prove themselves, but Gibcus as a top-10 pick deserves a higher number. I think Mansell is the one kid who should be rewarded with a new number for his exceptional effort. SPP selection, worked his arse off for a spot, early debut and plenty of senior games where he showed plenty.

 

[Ancient Tiger]

MRJ will continue to wear 49. His father wore that at South Fremantle and that's why he wears it now.

I doubt even Gibcus will get an early number, if Dusty had to start in 36, I can't see us starting to make an exception now

Wow Taz highly regarded and rewarded with 6, Gibbo 28 and Brown with Bourkey and Freezers old 30.
