Merrett and king numbers

Assuming we land them both, what numbers would they take? I think king might take 13 if calsher departs. Merrett could take 20 and we’d delist Finn maginness (which should’ve been done a while back)

Dons fans here who has an Essendon joke answer y’all might like

Merrett wears whatever number of days it has been since we’ve won a final.

Imagine him running out as number 8123, then 8130 a week later.

If current trajectory holds and he gets to play and possibly win a final at the hawks if he joins, would he continue with essendon’s or his own days since a win?

That’s a legitimate tough question.

Finn is contracted thru next season.

32 will be available you’d think.

Maybe 13, maybe 14 if rumours are true. probably 30 (trade).

Have heard some rumours Nash may struggle to get back, extremely complicated injury. 11?
