Swans chat 2014 guernsey numbers revealed

[troyjones2525]

Nearly all the other clubs have announced there new recruits numbers, when will we?

A quick search of the forums for past years shows that it varies between the 8th to the 22nd of December. 19th of December last year.

So far we know Rampe has received 24 from Jude and this afternoon Zak Jones was instagrammed by Tim Membrey in front of the number 11 locker so he possibly has that number now.

[ShockOfHair]

I'm all for Membrey and Buddy duking it out for no. 23. Not Campbell Brown style, more like who can do the best version of Wrecking Ball.

That's got fundraiser written all over it.

Has Lockyer chosen Membrey as his champion?

[wolftone57]

Yes why would Jordan not fight for 23 after all it is his not Tim's to fight for. I was a bit shocked there was no announcement of the Guernsey presentation on the Swans website. There is normally an announcement straight after the Rookie Draft has finished. It is a big deal at the Swans and Macca and Kizza will get up and give a pep talk to the new arrivals and the ones who are underachieving.

[707]

Available numbers 10, 11 (Jones?), 13, 18, 19, 24 Rampe, 29, 36, 41, 43.

Franklin, Laidler, Derykx, Hewett, Nankervis, Aliir, Perris need numbers

[swansrob]

Could Franklin wear the 19? Has been called the indigenous number previously.

I think Franklin should get the number 10,000,000

Already getting that LOL but if he doesn't perform I'm sure he will get it over again and again shouted from the sidelines.

[707]

1pm Monday they will announce guernsey numbers, it's on the website.

Just looking at the accompanying photos, a few of the new recruits are very solidly built or it's trick photography. Anyone else think the pic of Nankervis makes him look like Glen Jakovich?

[Primmy]

That particular picture, small one, from a distance, and yes he does look like Jacovich. Wouldn't mind that.

I wonder how the discussion between Buddy and Jordan Lockyer went?

[goswannie14]

Good to see Buddy getting number 23 which he wanted and Jordan Lockyer getting back to his favourite number, 18, after all the carry on about him having to "give up" his number for Franklin, it appears that this is what he may have preferred all along.

[ShockOfHair]

Lockyer was excited to get the number 23 two years ago. Now he's excited to get no 18.

I thought the cool thing was Jude offering his no. 24 to Dane. Typically thoughtful Jude.
