Not 8. The press could have a field day with that. The symbolism of getting rid of a f/s player with a hired gun.

GIVE HIM NUMBER 8 AND THE TANK NUMBER 5 AND TAKE 11 OF Ackland BEFORE THAT NUMBER BECOMES CURSED ALSO. GIVE Ackland NUMBER 10 AND HADLEY NUMBER 12

Chris' birthday is the 8th September 1983 so perhaps number 8 is a good / lucky number for him. Or if he thinks 3's a lucky number he might consider 12 as 1 + 2 = 3.

I was going to suggest they would wait until after the draft, and our 2008 list is all but finalised, before allocating his number. But given Swann's comment about expecting to sell a few jumpers with his number, I wonder if they'll make a decision sooner rather than later???

Probably should have made the decision already and struck while the iron was hot.

Why does he need a number?

Let him run around without a number as it is unlikely anyone will see the number given his incredible pace on the ground.

I'd say there are already a few jumpers out there without any numbers on them anyway, so lets continue the Juddernaut and not give him any number at all!

The more I think about it, the more I think the Murph swap to number 5 should be on.








That way Judd can have...

VOTES

...on his jumper.

Judd had already rejected being a Pie. :-D

Give Ackland the bullet. Actually what about giving him the number 0, cuz that is his net worth to CFC.
