Surprisingly, only one Roo has ever played more than 100 games in number 14 – Gerald Eastmure with 120 from 1954 to 1961.
Eastmure is currently the only name on the locker in the Aegis Park change rooms, presenting a big chance for Dumont to make a lasting impression at the club.
It has been multiple years since a player in number 14 has been a regular member of North’s best 22, dating back to Gavin Urquhart in 2009.
Jordan Gysberts had the number most recently.
