Vacant guernsey numbers

[fargothegreat]

I've chopped and changed a bit, but this is what I'd like to see.
2 - Trainor
4 - Lalor
8 - Faull
9 - Smilie
10 - Hotton
12 - Armstrong
17 - MRJ

MRJ swapping to 17 to continue at least one tradition.
Simms and Alger to get later numbers.

Hopper already has 2

Some of the higher numbers are actually very decorated. 25 Brendon Gale 29 Kevin Bartlett and Bolton. 30 was Francis Bourke and 33 Matthew Knights and David Cloke. 39 Andrew Kellaway 41 Scotty Turner, Nathan Foley. Just because it's a higher number doesn't make it bad. To say that Brown needs a higher number than 30 is sacrilege, he is wearing the number of one of the all time Richmond greats

Being the coaches pet has their advantages

3 is a huge number at West Coast with only Mainwaring, Judd & Gaff before him. A huge honour for Bakes!

Might need to go have a squiz at how the weagles fans are taking it

Personally I think it’s a fantastic honour for Baker and one he will prove worthy of

But I have a feeling he’s a little bit underrated across the comp

Going to hurt seeing him in eagles colours but genuinely wish him all the best and every success

 

[captain cotch 9]

Bakes in 3 is a reminder of what they gave up to get him

Pardon the intrusion guys, I may be creeping in the background following this thread to see what you guys do with your ‘prime’ numbers.

Most of us preferred to have Pick 3 in the #3 but since the waters have moved, no real issues with Bakes getting it.

Sense I get with Bakes is he just needs to play a game for us for the majority to see, he’s a solid citizen, more than solid footballer but what’s been missing most (bar general skill lol), someone not named Harley with a bit of mongrel.

I don’t think he’ll reach All Aust heights like the players before him but it does make sense.

Graham in JK doesn’t make as much sense but we did also give away our last premiership captains number to a journeyman giants ruckman like nothing.

Never apologise for jumping in and putting your 2c mate

Think you have pretty much hit the nail on the head

Don’t think he will ever be an AA but he’s also not that type of player either

He’s a real heart and soul type who will always bust his gut for the jumper and his team mates

He will never shirk a contest and play any role on gameday that’s needed be it back, forward or in the midfield
The perfect senior head to have around your young guns

There hasn’t been a Tiger I’ve watched play the game (maybe Dusty but he was a freak) where I found myself saying bloody well done. It’s all the small things, the bumps, the shepherds, the spoils, the running back with the flight unaware of what’s about to crunch him. The one percenters that make the very good footballers very good footballers are Bakes bread and butter.

You guys will love him. I’m still shattered he’s gone even though we were fairly compensated.

I’ll absolutely be following the Eagles with Bakes, Jack and Mini hoping you go well in any game except v us.
