Try:
./john -w=password.lst --rules=jumbo FILENAMEHERE
to enable more wordlist rules.
By default, JtR won't crack this password, unfortunately. The "append
two digits" rule (as opposed to appending just one digit) is not
included in the default wordlist mode ruleset, and incremental mode is
limited to lengths up to 8 by default. Yes, we need to improve the
defaults.
The "jumbo" ruleset includes this rule (and a lot more).
