Outside of Chris Judd - who is the only other player to be appointed Captain of his new Club without having played a game for them?

Yeah, I was thinking 4 but Jack Dyer played for a hundred years and won heaps of them. KJ recently as captain and I think Brodders won one.

Royce Hart wore no 4 and so did Geoff Raines could be a dark horse.
17 is definentely a front runner. Dyer Barry Richardson did he win a B&F Kane Brodders?
33 David Cloke ? Matty Knights anyone beyond that?

17?

Correct to a degree - Number 17 has won 12 in total, however there is conjecture as to the 1st in #17 because Rhett's book lists Bill Bourke as having no number & no B&F, however the 2007 annual reports lists Bill Bourke winning the B&F as the Tigers of Old book has him in #17.

But saying that Number 17 has won 2 more than the next number.
