Fagan quietly ended the 19th Man thing in favour of WFAO. It was Jackson Edwards' number when he was on our list but didn't get reallocated.

This was because the only other vacant number when Jackson was taken as our last pick (so I guess last to choose) was #23. Bad optics or whatever I suppose given the Edwards/McLeod history. As soon as Jackson left the AFC went back to not allocating #19.

Probably more so that it’s now tradition that an indigenous player gets 23, Petrenko, Cameron, McAdam.
