28? Why? It's just an obscure upgrade number.

I sincerely hope we go from 1-45 with no gaps next season. I don't know what it is, but these past few years with a 46 and 47 instead of 42 or 13 or 37 has really annoyed me.

I agree with eth-dog, I like having 1-45 with no gaps. It doesn't really annoy me if not though.
 
FWIW in the Mark Harvey interview where all other players were wearing correct numbers in the shot (Pears 16, Gwilt 42, Edwards 19, TBC 2 etc.) Gach was wearing 31, Francis 10, Parish 3 and McKenna 8 (second time I've seen him wearing 8 in training in a video this pre season) and Tom Wallis 46 suggesting Orazio will downgrade

Jack Garden the best player there. Awesome wingman. OK maybe I'm biased as my grandmother was life long friends with his family so I heard a bit about him :)

He won the Crichton Medal in 1920, his second season after debuting in 1915 and then missing a few years due to the War.

His son used to like to mention to me that Jack was a back to back Premiership player, despite only playing in one Grand Final, thats how good he was! (In 1924 the VFL had a round robin finals series so no GF)

The whole club missed a few years due to the War.
Essendon was in recess in 1916 & 1917.
Jack wore Roy Laing's number 15 in 1915 (Laing joined up early in the War effort), then when the club resumed in 1918 he was still away at War, Laing having returned.
Jack returned to senior footy in 1920 wearing 28 and played 7 more seasons until the losing Prelim side in 1926. (By 3 points to eventual premier Melbourne.)
He retired at 31, having played a total of 116 games.
As mentioned above, he is a member of the 1923 & 1924 premiership sides.
When people mention the Mosquito Fleet at Essendon, they usually name Jack Garden first, then go on to naming other the blokes.
He won a club B&F in an era when blokes like Tom Fitzmaurice, Fred Baring and Len Bowe were playing.
So actually, there's a fair chance Jack Garden is the best 28. He's certainly one of the best.

Gach in 31? :confused: Wouldn't have thought a rookie pick would get Fletch's number.
