Best thing about his appointment as skipper is that our captaincy was not used to keep a player like Sloane or Danger at the club.


Always great to have a big key forward as skipper.

 

[Redleg Crow]

Last year I wasn't sure if this role would suit him. But it became more and more clear he was the natural leader on the field.

Absolutely brilliant decision..... Class act, great lad.
Showed his love for the team, by re-signing early on

Welcome news & let's be honest all things considered the best move our coach could make in his choice of captain.

These are the types of decisions that happen at football clubs when you finally have people in place with fully functioning testicles.

 

[Tex200]

My favoured choice so am thrilled with this.

Bold and exciting decision - couldn't be happier.

Congratulations to Tex on the way he's conducted himself which has opened this opportunity

 

[Niximus]

Love it!!

 

[radiojake]

Fantastic!

 

[Redleg Crow]

Did well not to make a Ryan Griffen appointment....

But of course this means pages and pages and pages of "Dangerfield is definitely gone" articles.

Great appointment, good to see someone at the club now has balls.

After last seasons pathetic non decision on the captaincy, this is brilliant.

Super news! Big Tex!

I'm a bit surprised, but the club knows more and you've got to trust that.

I think it was certainly time to have a fresh start.

 

[Coopers]

I am surprised, but I love me some Texas.

Well overdue.

I cannot like this comment enough. It is very true. And if someone knows about fully-functioning testicles, it's Slippery Pete.

CAPTAIN TEX. MAY YOU END YOUR CAREER AS THE MULTIPLE COLEMAN, MULTIPLE BROWNLOW, BACK-TO-BACK-TO-BACK ETC PREMIERSHIP CAPTAIN TEX.

It's not a press conference... it's a royal decree!!

Long Live Tex Rex!

 

[BACCS]

Love the big Texan!

 

[Redleg Crow]

van Berlo V-C???

Do they have VC's anymore? Usually just a the rest of the leadership group isn't it?

 

[AFC3000]

Great decision, he's a natural team first leader. I think he will be someone who becomes even better in the role.

 

[Deaneus!]

van Berlo V-C???

Two steps forward, two steps back?

Fresh blood thank you.

Can't see much wrong with this appointment. I just hope he doesn't put to much pressure on himself which then affects his form on game day. That's my only concern, that his passion is overwhelming and he has adrenaline dumps before games.

Brilliant decision, bloody brilliant!
