WC player numbers : Sat Oct 15, 2022 7:18 pm  
Have i missed something or are they all over the place?

I thought it was typical poor coverage by the BBC but apparently not.....?

The Aussies have done theirs based on their number of caps so Cherry Evans for instance has the 2nd highest number of caps so is wearing No.2

Quotes from Meninga here…

Meninga says the overall squad numbering system was approved two years ago; and he was none the wise when it was signed off. Speaking to Love Rugby League this week, the Roos legend was clearly still frustrated.

“My feeling is that tour numbers are great,” Meninga explained. “But if they are going to play every game then it should be 1-17.

“We have been given no chance to pick them in the positions that they play. So what we decided, is that if everyone has to wear touring numbers not their traditional numbers, then we will base it on the players who have played the most games.

“That is why Cherry-Evans is number two, and Benny Hunt is number three. We were forced to do that. I don’t know what our 1-17 is going to be in the World Cup final if we make it.”

its based on who made their debut the first except tedesco he gets one due to being captain, hence the new caps are the highest numbers

It just seems perverse. I mean, why? What's wrong with doing what every other country does?
