Nice work reinstating this section Caveman! I had beenwondering about #37 as I got one of Cam Wight's match worn ones so great to see it was also worn by Crofty, Peter Welsh and Ian Bryant and Ian Rickman

Well Ian Rickman's best game was North Melbourne v Footscray at Arden Street in 1984, so it is appropriate that he should be mentioned in the week that we played North Melbourne (away- well sort of) again 26 years later.

Ian Bryant wore 37 in the 1961 Grand Final though he later made #5 his own.

What about the bloke who donned the #60 early doors? He didn't turn out half bad did he?

Some ripper #7's as well as #3's.

Who recalls the sign draped outside the old coaches box that sat on top of the old E.J.Smith roof in the outer, the very day that Doug Hawkins broke Teddy Whitten's club record of 321 games against Geelong at home in July 1994?

3 + 7 = the perfect 10.

How spot on was that?

#60 a memorable character for sure

The weight of such a large number didn't appear to weigh him down. Only deducted 21 from it to enable him to win the Brownlow.
