TOP CARLTON draftee Sam Petrevski-Seton will wear the famous No.5 jumper in his first season at the club in 2017.

Petrevski-Seton, taken with pick No.6 in the NAB AFL Draft, will follow in the footsteps of legendary Blues Syd Jackson (136 games), Ken Sheldon (185), Andrew McKay (244) and Chris Judd (145) in pulling on the No.5 guernsey.

Zac Fisher has inherited the No.25, worn with great distinction by Alex Jesaulenko, while Cam Polson will don the No.29 jumper.

Fellow draftees Tom Williamson (No.31), Harrison McReadie (No.26) have been allocated their numbers, while Patrick Kerr, the grandson of Carlton great Laurie, will be hoping for a long and distinguished career in the No.36.

Geelong recruit Billie Smedts has been handed the No.16 guernsey, while ex-Giant Caleb Marchbank will start his career in the Navy Blue in jumper No.22.

Former Giants teammates Rhys Palmer and Jarrod Pickett will wear No.24 and No.33 respectively.

Jesse Glass-McCasker will move to the No.40 guernsey vacated by retired defender Michael Jamison.

Rookies Kym LeBois (No.42) and Alex Silvagni (No.44) are the others to be handed their jumpers.

In news already announced, Jack Silvagni will carry on the legacy of his grandfather Sergio and father Stephen by taking over the No.1 jumper at Carlton next season.
