Midfielder Harry Schoenberg, Adelaide’s second pick at last week’s AFL national draft, will follow in the footsteps of Richard Douglas and two-time premiership captain Mark Bickley and wear the No. 26 jumper in 2020.
“I’ll be very proud to wear No. 26,” Schoenberg, who grew up a Crows supporter, told the club’s website.
“It’s pretty special, a few great Crows have worn that over time.”
