Number 13

[Frosty_13]

I was just wondering who will get the prized number 13 gurnsey after the great man has hung them up? Whoever it is we hope can be half the player frosty was and we will have a very very good player.

Thanks for the laugh on a particularly glum day. :D I heartily look forward to the comments this thread will generate!! :)

With the number's recent history, I don't think anyone will be jumping out of their skin to wear it ;)

[penga]

maybe warfe can fill those huge shoes! ;)

nah, seriously, i could imagine macleski taking that number

[motorace_182]

Cmon, u dont want to jinx the kid before his career has started. Retire the number as a, um, tribute to the great man

[Red]

Why not Captain?

It'd only be swapping his current numbers around, so no mozzing the numerolgical karma there.

Plus it would fit with the way he plays now -- whoever he's unlucky enough to be playing on usually has a very black day.

I think it is only fitting that this number be retired. Frosty_13 your devotion is truly remarkable.:)

That would make them what, 2 feet 3 inches tall?

Hard to find anyone at that height!

[Sanecow]

If someone else gets it, I hope they're prepared to give it back in Frosty's comeback year.

Sean Dempster for 13. I'm sure that's the number his dad wore.

[Bear]

we could give it to the runner :)

And perhaps he could also adopt his Dad's hairstyle. Very fetching.

[Ruck'n'Roll]

I think it was Rod Carter's number too, as Dempster spent last season at fullback, maybe give it to him.

Be more use there than anywhere else over the last 3 years :p

And I suppose that would include 2001 when Frosty finished top 10 in the B&F?

Aaah, how quickly they forget.

Just shows how mis-leading the B&F can be... ;)

I'm sure Quentin would be happy to join the Swans. Have to do some work on his kicking though and I just can't see him taking speccies!

Or how generalisations conveniently overlook all the available evidence. :eek:

Yeah, but he'd be good at getting in under the packs....
