    The number 6.

    What's everyone's thoughts on who should get it.

    Me, I would love for it to end up on the back of Libba.
    The curse is dead.

      It should be on the back of an A Grader.

          None that jump out at me to be honest. I reckon if Libba didn't want his old man's number, he won't want Johnno's.

          Leave it in mothballs another year.

              Libba wanted the lowest number possible last year which is why he got number 21.

              This year he can 'drop' down to 6 (if allocated), 8, 11, 14, 15, 18 or 20.

                  So who's back should it be on?

                  And to be fair Johnno was no 'A' grader when he took over the number.

                      I want to see Dahlhaus get it.

                          Will have to wait and see. Johnno was a potential gun from day one.

                              Fair enough, thought he'd just not wanted Senior's number.

                              Still would leave it in mothballs.

                                  Didn't Dahlhaus recently say that he wants to "... make 40 his own"? Think this was in a tv interview on 7.

                                      I disagree, he was an fast outside wngman who had a awkward kick on him.

                                          Happy to see a new draftee wear it. Not a big fan of inheriting famous guernsey numbers based on talent.

                                              He certainly was. His first game was a ripper and it didn't take him long to settle in.

                                                  How long did he have the number 33? I was in Asia for the first 7 years of the 1990's so didn't see many games.

                                                          Good point, just looked it up. He had 33 for the 9 games in 1994 and then switched in 1995 to the number 6
