Prediction Next Captain

[Ratkins]

They won't and should not remove him.

He was voted best AFL captain by his peers. I think they know a few things.

 

[Plugger46]

Hartigan? Played well on the big stage. All be it he's a bit pitmaness

 

[John Who]

What about Rory Laird? Consistent performer and seems to cope very well in the media limelight.
The 2 Crouches are the media-shy type so not quite suitable at this stage, for at least the next 2-3 years.

 

[mistylake]

Sloane.
Make it happen.
Before he turns to crap from old age.

We're also pretty happy about kinkley getting an extension.

 

[BTs Nana]

At this stage give it to whoever signs the longest contract.

You don't mean Josh Jenkins?

And this is similar how?

Good point. Give it to the AFL standard footballer who signs the longest contract.

Ha! I like this. All 5 year + contracts come with a free captaincy. Sign on now. Offer ends start of trade week so don't miss out on this exclusive offer.

s**t thread is s**t.

Why? It's a relevant discussion? Don't join in.
Nobody said to replace Walker now but it has to happen and it's about who is possible as one candidate leaving shortly.

 

[BTs Nana]

I reckon if Tex leads us to another granny and the team loses as badly as last week he'll resign it.

I doubt a bloke who's priority is money would be on the clubs list for future Captain.

 

[Lawrst]

s**t thread is s**t.

Please enlighten me in why....
Do you expect Tex to captain for the next 5 years?

 

[Ratkins]

We should sack the coach as well and trade the entire defensive unit.

At 27, yes he can be captain for the next 5 years.

Not now.. he was on the shortlist you could almost guarantee before all of this..

I expect him to be Captain next year so there's no frigging need for this thread.

Ah so forward planning for our leaders isn't needed?

The club can plan... but it's not needed at the moment. This is a knee-jerk reaction and also not necessary.

Irony
I'm inferring the rest of the comp might like us having a player who when struggling to have an impact can't be dropped. In the same way we like Port Adelaide being stuck with Ken Hinkley for another 4 years.

You're gonna have to explain the irony part

And just because he's captain, doesn't mean Tex can not be dropped. He doesn't deserve to be dropped either.

Is it? I suggested he would be captain for the next 2 years... Taking him to 29. About the same age van berlo stopped being our captain....

It's a good thread mate. Interesting discussion for those able to read.
