Numbers for 2021

Who’s #19?

I’d like the below. I reckon Draper gets to keep 38 because it suits him.

#2 - Two Metre Peter
#6 - Josh Eyre
#13 - Archie Perkins
#16 - Zach Reid
#19 - Cody Brand
#31 - Nik Cox
#32 - Jye Caldwell
#45 - Nick Hind

I think that ship has already sailed…

Missed opportunity with 2MP if that’s true with Draper, but sometimes you do see players training in the wrong number (for whatever reason). Also, they would be the 2020 training tops, wouldn’t they, i.e. haven’t released the 2021 designs yet. Draper may have just wanted to train in TBC’s top and they probably had some old Saad tops lying around for Hind to train in.

I would give #32 to Perkins.
Also, #31 to Brand as he was trained by Fletcher. (“Young gun hoping to follow in Fletch’s footsteps” newspaper article.)

#2 - Two Metre Peter
#6 - Jye Caldwell
#13 - (Reserved for a Davey twin? although that is two years away)
#16 - Nik Cox
#19 - Zach Reid
#20 - Josh Eyre
#31 - Cody Brand
#32 - Archie Perkins
#42 - Nick Hind

If Draper changes to #2, give #20 to Wright and he will henceforth be known as:
“20 Decimetre Peter”. Thoughts @scotty21 ?

They might swap Wright and Reid around from my original suggestions and give 2MP #19 and Reid #20 so Reid can be next to his Leongatha mate.

I think Sammy has made his choice, and obviously looked up to TBC as a mentor, and being the sort of guy he is, I reckon he will want to take on his number and take his place between Pidge and Darcy and close to Langers, it is actually quite symbolic of the changing of the guard, with a new number 6 as well.

I guess since Fletch Jr went to America that there’s no reason to save 31 anymore.

My greatest hope is that we suddenly have 3 or 4 Fletch-like young players.

How incredibly awesome would that be.

Numbers is the sorta fluff the club needs to put out in between nackers training reports to keep us engaged.

2MP to get the AFLs first decimal number

I think 16 for 2MP just so you have the twin forwards 16 and 17

Then say Cox and Eyre 19 & 20 as both likely forwards as well near jones and mozz

31 & 32 go to our new defenders reid and brand

6 is Caldwell

I suppose that leaves perkins in 13

I’d prefer to see the next Fletcher in 41.

I think Caldwell will be #6 based on the guernsey he was wearing in his intro video

We keep adding the number that Ken wore in the 1966 U/19’s flag…#10
