Good to see players like Frosty and Ox stick with their current numbers.

[roar]

Yep, agree. Thought it was stupid when they got Elliott to change to 5.

On the other hand, I'm not a fan of players keeping their number when they change clubs, so I would have preferred Howe to take another one.

[Jezza]

I'm happy with those new numbers. Interesting to see Frost retain number 45.

The recent convention of awarding the 35 to the first player drafted adds an interesting conundrum doesn't it? I can't help look over that list and wonder which number Sier will be moving to next year... ie who is likely to be vacating their number?
I like the better players to wear the lower numbers but there's not much room opening up ahead of #35 for him to step into. If he's a gun he could end up sliding to a temporary number for another year or so before moving into a low number when it opens up like Elliot did by taking the long road round from #35 to #5. Like roar has said above I don't like multiple number changes either.
