HAWKS TAKE THE DOUBLE: Box Hill Hawks coach Brendon Bolton says the days of clubs having one captain have passed. “Football teams have so many different personalities that I don’t think it’s right to entrust it to one single player,” Bolton said, explaining his decision to go with two skippers this season, Steve Kenna and Lukas Markovic. “Steve and ‘Marko’ are two totally different types and bring us leadership in different ways.

The way I see it, they can bounce off each other, complement each other. One will have close relationships with some players where the other can’t and vice-versa. I think that combination fits really well with a young group.” Bolton said Kenna and Markovic were both “dying” to take the captaincy and pleased to share the role. It’s the first time in Box Hill’s history that it’s had dual captains.

Call me old fashioned - 1 Captain and a couple of Vices is my call

Nah, it's perfect at the VFL level I reckon. I personally can't split the two and both really do provide something different that compliments each other. We have a young group of VFL and AFL players and I think it's worth having the natural leader, ripping bloke like Marko as well as the experienced, immensely astute player in Kenna. Good luck to them both.

Rapt for Marko. He had big wraps when first rookied, then was plagued with injury and de-listed from the Hawks.

Can't work this out, though.

Marko trained with the Hawks prior to the draft. We had just lost Croad to a long term injury. We had de-listed Dawson. We admit we are short of KPD. We did not pick up or keep a Croad replacement. The rookie list is chock full of midgets.

Baffling.

Markovic is a good VFL player.
