Vacant guernsey numbers

[copthat]

Pretty sure it's the same people who complained about our Grand Final sprint entry as if it meant anything.

 

[Hoos]

I rang each of these guys and asked for a comment, each privately indicated they were incensed and too angry to speak.

I hope you asked the obvious question; why could Merv Keane be bothered to move from 19 to 18?

 

[guruisatiger]

Chaff had game too

He annoyed me always with his chest puffed out

 

[guruisatiger]

And Mark Chaffey.

Nah he didn't suit number 6

 

[Hoos]

Nah he didn't suit number 6

Pity Richo was there, he could've had #12 otherwise.

I don't know what's worse, Miller in the number 12, Hopper in the number 2 or not giving Lalor the number 4. Yze, you're on thin ice, my friend

Confidence was already low in Yze but **** me. He’s bottling everything he can control. Thank **** we have Blair.

I'm trying to find the positives here. Could giving Hopper the number two be some kind of brilliant marketing strategy where we make him look like he's a better player than he actually is?

Mansell and Miller finished 7th and 9th in the JD medal.

You say it like its a good thing..

 

[Underarm]

You say it like its a good thing..

I say it because it's the reality of the situation. People need to readjust what 'best 22' means.

You may not like it, but Mansell and Miller aren't going anywhere for a while.

 

[guruisatiger]

F**king lol!! I can't believe I forgot #17.

Then again, it's only Dyer, Richardson (Barry), Rioli and another Rioli.

There's another tiger legend who wore number 17 before jack dyer a true tiger hero and legend

Said the same thig about Astbury when he got 12... turned out pretty good.

Also i have info that Yze has been doing the hard yards and not really gone on a holiday since season years end. Give him a shot and back the coach in untill his contract is up.

A coach that is highly paid is working hard? Thats amazing.

We are giving him a shot, but he keeps shitting in his hands and clapping.

 

[Hoos]

I never realised it's the coach and him alone who decides what players get what numbers.

This is always the phrase that makes me laugh.

Who should then take the blame?

 

[Tackle Bag]

Storm in a teacup.
Almost every player on debut has started high and ended low by careers end.
Not going to make you a better player…

Not really though. Cotchin, Deledio, Riewoldt, Richo. All given low numbers in their first year.

We’ve actually given our early draft picks good numbers many times over the years.

 

[draft_enjoyer]

Some of you need to get a grip.. ****ing hell

 

[Daka]

Dylan Alexander doesn't even have Miller & MRJ in our best team and they are wearing 12 & 17...
It shows you how much ppl rate Maurice no offense to him, he does some good things no doubt but isn't enough of a threat most of the time.

 

[Bojangles17]

Hard to rationalize how they went about it , why banks and Seth still in 40s . Can only think since recent draftees weren’t awarded low numbers that couldn’t start now . Stupid really

 

[Hoos]

This is always the phrase that makes me laugh.

Take the blame, lol. For what? Okay I'll play. Footy department? I doubt very much that the coach - any coach - decides on his own who's wearing what number.

Huge concern though. I don't know how we can go on after this.

 

[Hoos]

Some of you need to get a grip.. ****ing hell

It's incredible isn't it. Just when you thought you couldn't find any more stupid, pointless things that footy fans could melt about, up jumps this. Some have to be taking the piss, don't they?

 

[_RT_]

FMD coach on thin ice and people have little faith in him because players weren't given single digit numbers or certain players were give numbers they shouldn't have been.

If jumper numbers are the biggest problem we've got, then all this talk about us being spoon certainties is completely unfounded

 

[beema limapep]

The numbers don't matter crew:-

3 Dec 2024 - "They simply don't matter one bit. You are all out of your minds".

2 Dec 2024 - "Isn't it fantastic MRJ will wear the number 17?"

mrj was easily best 22 before his injury this year
