How’s it distressing? They were signed first?
You reckon the club would deny Baker number 3 when he was traded in a month before the draft?
Omg Baker wears a number 3 on his back and Graham wears a number 17. I'm never going to get over this how could the club do this to us

Trade ins are more likely to play more games in a number than a draft pick who could bust in a “good” number

I'm guessing top 10 or so picks would have access to higher numbers like Reid last year.

Should just go alphabetically
Numbers would change pretty much every year

Reid pretty much put in an ambit claim on #9 before he was even drafted, there was no chance he wasn't getting it.
Anyone complaining about this years numbers, need to reference Matt Flynn given the #25 last year.
Hurn our club games record holder, which will likely not be broken for sometime... given to a middling Ruck.
Baker likely idolised Judd growing up, why wouldn't he want the #3.

We have premiership streaks in #4, #14, #17 and #18.
With #6 and #20 playing in our last 3 flags, only missing out in 1992.
So 3 is gonna blow out to #78

But have we had a player wear 17 who hasn't been a premiership player?
*edit.. just checked... we've only had 3 no.17s (Bluey, Chick,JK)premiership players.
thats what i meant
no4 has had Antoniwicz
no14 had Koby Stevens, Elijah Grgic
etc

I think Richmond is living proof that “saving” numbers or making draftees “work” for numbers is not the way to go.
On the one hand, they’ve effectively heaped more pressure on players (in the future) by trying to avoid putting pressure on them now. They don’t want to give Lalor #4 now but if he gets it next year does that mean he’s definitely going to be the next Dusty in their eyes?
On the other hand, surely there’s enough incentive for players to do their best without the carrot of a low number…
There’s sacred numbers and there’s overthinking it. I’m happy we’ve kept it relatively simple.

Of all numbers that need retiring out of respect, it’s Dusty’s
