Quote ="PopTart"Right edge is 3 and 2. In the modern game people play different positions but historically right wing is 2.
Think of Fletch scoring in the semi final on the right wing, wearing 2.
Or Neil Fox at left centre wearing 4.

It’s always been that way!
It is logical if you think of it from the opposing team looking across the half way line and reading the numbers from their left to right
