Universal Love Player Numbers – 2024 update (sponsored by Tulip)

[Gysberts2Bate]

The club announces Petracca takes the number 5 because he wants to be like CP3

Our club

Surely this needs to go in the Demonblog file of MFC tragedies.

I think if we draft Darcy Parish he'll be happy to take #13 - likened himself to Daisy Thomas and that was his Collingwood number.

Oliver, Weideman, King & Hulett.

Speculate away...

 

[Headless]

Oliver: 13
Weideman: 26
King: 48
Hulet: 40

 

[Wizardy]

Oliver has to be #13... surely. Jordie would want it that way..
Weideman #26.
King #40.
Hulett #38.

Surely we hit up the M King and M King combination at #47 and #48.

 

[Canary]

Oliver - 13
Weideman - 40
King - 27
Hulett - 26

You know what they say about paradoxes, right?

 

[TheCount]

Weideman - 13 (TAC Cup number)
Oliver - 27
Hulett - 38
King - 40

 

[Canary]

Weideman - 13 (TAC Cup number)
Oliver - 27
Hulett - 38
King - 40

I prefer this to mine.

 

[Tulip]

Weideman - 13
Oliver - 33
King - 34
Hulett - 49

 

[dylan93]

Oliver looks too much like McKenzie to give him the 13 IMHO.

Weideman - 13
Oliver - 26
Hulett - 34
King - 49

I agree regarding Oliver and 13, let's let the sub par ginger legacy in 13 die with Jordie please. Would probably prefer to not have our fix pick in the same number as our last first pick who did his knee in it tho

 

[CWaffles]

13 has to be Weideman, just seems like a forwards number because of Tex, 26 to Oliver, King in 40 and Hutlett into 38.

 

[Sellout Scully]

Give Hulett 8 and take it away from Lufumbles purely to piss him off. Will probably make him quit, which frees up another spot on our list and some salary for Prestia17.

 

[Roo Beauty]

@BrettAndersonIF: Sam Weideman will wear Christian Petracca's old No.26 for the Dees. Good yarn here on Superfooty... https://t.co/VWrByR1yzV #AFLDraft

 

[Tulip]

Good decision to stick him next to Tom McDonald in the dressing room, is a great example for any young player coming through the club. Especially a young tall.

Oliver continuing the Fire Crotch tradition in #13.
and Spencer continuing the fine indigenous tradition in the #33 guernsey ...

Also i think the club needs to specifically look at drafting a kid with the initials WD to fill the #40 next season ... just for the lols

 

[Canary]

Curious as to why Spencer opted to change to 33.

Here's hoping he doesn't play a game in it.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

How long has he been in 42?

There should be a statute of limitations on changes.

It's a really odd decision isn't it ... after like 7 years with the same number, its a peculiar time to make a change ... perhaps he feels its what he needs to take his game to the next level ... which admittedly would still only be from "poor" to "mediocre"

This is devastating. My playing number is 33. Last thing I want is for Spencer to be wearing it
