A CHANGE of clubs won't mean a change of numbers for Richmond recruit Chris Yarran, who will retain the No.13 jumper that we wore in 119 games while playing for Carlton.

Yarran joined the Tigers in October after seven years with the Blues, from 2009-2015.

The 24-year-old recently described the move as "heartbreaking" but admitted he might have walked away from the game had he continued with Carlton.

Fellow recruit Andrew Moore – from Port Adelaide – will wear No.15 in his first season at Punt Road, while the coveted No. 1 jumper vacated by Chris Newman will be worn by Nick Vlastuin.

Ben Lennon will upgrade his wardrobe from No.35 to No.7 and Kane Lambert has moved from No.48 to No.23.

In his first season as a Tiger, former Greater Western Sydney inside midfielder Jacob Townsend will wear No.21.
