RICHMOND legend Kevin Bartlett says Trent Cotchin should ignore tradition and keep his No.9 if he is named Tigers captain.
Cotchin is expected to be named Richmond's new skipper as soon as next week.
Following recent tradition, that would mean trading in his No.9 guernsey for No.17.
But the Brownlow runner-up is reluctant to make the switch, according to reports in Fairfax Media.
He received backing from Bartlett today, who tweeted: "Richmond has to dump the notion all captains have to wear number17. Let each individual carve out their own history #cotchin9"
The tradition was instituted in 2003 in honour of Jack Dyer, the Tigers' greatest player. Dyer passed away soon after.
It has been followed by Wayne Campbell - who switched from the No.9 he had worn most of his career - Kane Johnson and Chris Newman, who stood down as captain at the end of last season.
