Now that we're (mostly) done with the draft, I was thinking about who gets what next year. We've got a few decent numbers open, obviously Shai has come in, I wouldn't rule out an Erasmus maybe moving up, then obviously the draftees.

Currently available are:
#15
#16
#18
#19
#20
#45
#45
#46

I think Shai is going one of two ways, he either goes from #29 to #19 or #20. Erasmus, Johnson, Treacy and potentially Voss could all make arguments for moving to a higher number, but I can only see Ras or Voss actually changing.

#15 Neil Erasmus
#16 Murphy Reid
#18 Quinton Narkle
#19 Shai Bolton
#20 Patrick Voss
#28 Charlie Nicholls
#38 Jaren Carr
#45 Rookie
#46 Cat B?

Voss might be an odd pick, but I think Treacy is settled in the #35 and we don't often give draftees high numbers anymore. I imagine Narkle would take a locker next to Shai, given the opportunity. My other thought was giving the #18 to Carr, as it's double his father's number, but I don't see him getting such a high number.
 
15 - Charlie Nicholls (25 with Central Districts would choose number before Riddle who was 15 for Claremont)
16 -
18 - Adrian Riddle
19 - Jaren Carr (dad was 9)
20 - Jack Delean (because he likes round numbers, 10 at Sth Adelaide, and I wanted to put Bolton in his old man’s guernsey)
22 - Murphy Reid (22 for Sandy Dragons)
40 - Shai Bolton (dad’s number or would he dust off the 16?)
42 - Quentin Narkle (was 42 at Pt Adelaide)

Got a feeling Bolton and Narkle will go.with lockers right next to each other. Given the numbers available I doubt that'll be too hard to achieve.

Narkle has been done probably even before he was delisted by Port. He would have second choice behind Bolton except perhaps if any existing players wished to change numbers (looks like Reidy has).

My prediction is 19 (Narkle) and 20 (Bolton).

Hope we give no.16 to Reid and get Mundy's number back on the park in 2025.

16 - Reid
18- Reidy
19- Bolton (was 29) could be 15 tho
20- Voss
22- Nicholls
15 - Carr (might be 19 if bolts is 15)
42 - Narkle
43 - Riddle


We might also shuffle Carr down if 16 isn't ready yet (with Reid in 15) but feel Reid is fitting for 16
 
Could’ve chosen a much higher number from day one. Must be a reason for no. 44.

I don't know if he's a tidy fellow but now he can spread his gear from 43 to 50 without bothering anyone.

Looking at some of changeroom footage at Cockburn it seems like the locker room is arranged in a circle numbered up to 60 where 60 is next to 1 with a bench built in around separating the bottom of locker and the floor. I'd previously thought from some photos that the back end numbers went around a corner.
