NEW rookie Dan Houston will wear the No. 43 in 2016.

From Oakleigh Chargers, the forward will don the number worn most recently by delisted category B rookie Johann Wagner.

Being a 'high' number typically handed to a rookie, this number has never been worn in 100 AFL games at the Power.

Only former Magpie captain Corey Ah Chee has worn it in more than 100 games, before taking over the traditional No. 1 captain's guernsey. 

The last man to play an AFL game in the jumper was Daniel Stewart (36 games 2010-2013), before him Nick Salter wore it during two games of his debut season in 2008.

Before that it hasn't been worn in the AFL, but perhaps Dan Houston is out to change that...
