From bad boy to dux: Toby Greene’s elevation to AFL All-Australian captain
The Giants captain has continued his rise to a leader in the competition with the prestigious honour. Collingwood’s Daicos brothers were also named in the 2023 side.
Collingwood’s Daicos brothers, Nick and Josh, have begun a potential September to remember for the Magpies with selection in this year’s All Australian team, as Toby Greene completed his transition from bad boy to dux of the class. The Greater Western Sydney leader created history when he was given the prestigious gong of skipper of the AFL’s team of the year, edging out fellow club captains Marcus Bontempelli, who was named vice-captain, Darcy Moore, Jordan Dawson, James Sicily and Zach Merrett.
Greene’s recognition comes just on two years to the day that he touched an umpire and was subsequently banned for six matches on appeal by the league. Named Giants captain this year, the fiery forward has since transformed into an inspirational on-field leader for the expansion club, and a major reason why they have defied the odds to return to September in coach Adam Kingsley’s first season at the helm.
Congrats Toby. Amazing achievement.

Another example why the AA team is a joke. May literally the best fullback in the league by a country mile. He destroyed Curnow in a way that no-other full back could do tonight.
