The #4

Post: # 447478Post Otiman »

#4 has been one of the most decorated numbers in our club, it is a huge deal to me where it goes next, and I believe that Thommo has the right to choose.

However, if you were in his boots, who would you pass the legendary #4 on to?

It's a tough one, because guys like Roo and Dal Santo have already made their numbers their own. Perhaps someone like Armitage, but I still don't know much about the kid.

Of course Milney could always just drop a '4'.

Wouldn't mind it being passed on to Gilbert too.

wouldn't surprise me if it was passed onto one of the 'mature age' rookies in Attard or Jones - seeing as he came to the club reasonably late on... I know CJ gets lambasted for his skill errors at the moment, but he could well become another 'thommo style' success story if his application to the task is right... I wouldn't mind seeing him in the number 4 either (***prepares to be shot down***)


Caaaaaarn you Sainters!!

Look past #4 as Thommo think of it as the legacy of greater players before him carrying on.

We need to find a player that will be a future champion for the club and hold the famous #4 with pride.

it should be rested for a year, and a decision made next yearon the number four. Let someone earn it next year instead of just giving it away.

Let someone earn it.

Giving it away willy-nilly shouldn't be our style.

Nobody has earned it for 2008 thus far.

Would love to see Gilbo get it. We could give it to a guy like McQualter or Armitage, but Gilbert is the only kid at the club who is a certainty to be a gun.

Is there really any point in changing number 5 to number 4?

Agreed. Will be VERY, VERY surprised if mini is not delisted.

I dont think we have anyone on the list worthy to be honest.

Great year from Gilbert/Attard. But not worthy of that number after one season.
