Must be 47.
That's the only number not taken in the 40s.

Gilligan now has 22


Player numbers finalised for 2010
richmondfc.com.au
By Tony Greenberg | Tue 15 December, 2009

Richmond’s pick in the 2009 pre-season draft, Dylan Grimes, will wear the No. 48 guernsey in his debut year of AFL football.

This is in accordance with the Club’s policy of making newcomers earn their stripes from the outset of their league careers, before being considered ready to wear a number steeped in Tigerland tradition.

The No. 22 guernsey, which had initially been earmarked for a player with previous AFL experience, will now be worn by second-year rookie Alroy Gilligan in 2010.

Gilligan was keen to take the number and, when the Tigers’ pre-season draft plans changed, it was decided that, as he had spent a year at the Club and shown such improvement in that time, he would be granted his wish.  This was in preference to leaving the No. 22 vacant, given that several significant lower numbers will not be utilised at Punt Road next year.

Richmond’s No. 1 pick in the 2009 rookie draft, speedy Calder Cannons small forward, Robbie Hicks, will replace Gilligan in the No. 45 jumper.


The full list of guernsey numbers at Tigerland for the 2010 season is:

1. Vacant
2. Will Thursfield
3. Brett Deledio
4. Vacant
5. Troy Simmonds
6. Graham Polak
7. Vacant
8. Jack Riewoldt
9. Trent Cotchin
10. Shane Edwards
11. Vacant
12. Vacant
13. Jordan McMahon
14. Dean Polo
15. Mitch Farmer
16. Luke McGuane
17. Chris Newman
18. Alex Rance
19. Daniel Connors
20. Mitch Morton
21. Shane Tuck
22. Alroy Gilligan
23. Daniel Jackson
24. Andrew Collins
25. Angus Graham
26. Robin Nahas
27. Tom Hislop
28. Jake King
29. Ty Vickery
30. Richard Tambling
31. Adam Thomson
32. Ben Cousins
33. David Gourdis
34. Andrew Browne
35. Matthew White
36. Dustin Martin
37. Jayden Post
38. Ben Griffiths

Doesn't Nason have 47 FF?

So he does.  :whistle
Alroy to 22 - now it makes sense. Biddiscombe, Meyer and JO-N to try to outdo.

I hope those Vacant boys kick on. We've recruited a few of them to the list. Must be a big family.

Geez Gilly has a fair bit to live up to  :lol.

Interesting the article says "The No. 22 guernsey, which had initially been earmarked for a player with previous AFL experience". Hooper much have been very much in our plans until he stuffed up his chance failing to turn up to training.
