News Port Adelaide announces co-captains - Ollie Wines and Tom Jonas

[tribey]

If we appoint dual captains, I think the supporter base will be split right down the middle between indifference and blind rage.

This feels like something I would’ve been passionate about a couple of years ago, same with the grassroots prison bars campaign.

Now with anything it’s like, eh. This static apathy the current regime has triggered in me, it’s like being trapped in an airport copping delay after delay. You’re in for the long haul, you know it’s ****ing atrocious, but there’s nothing you can do about it.

So... eh.

I’ll take that over getting ****** by a farmer every day, sheared every year and ending up in a stew.

Now I’m just waiting to be able to pull out “a lion does not concern itself with the opinion of a sheep”

This is all a nightmare, I'm still holding out hope that I'm actually asleep and someone will flick me in the head and I'll wake up in the back seat of my family car that's heading to Victoria for the Prelim vs Hawthorn in 2014.

I remember how high I was after that. Stood down at Alberton Oval with a group of about 1,000 Port Fans with the big screen rolled out on to the oval in the cold but pleasant weather.

Was such a great night.

Trust me, it was even better being there. Singing the full version of NTUA out the back at the Subi footy club with only a wall between us and the Freo change rooms. Yes We Ken chants. The works. All downhill since then unfortunately.

So we are going to get Ollie and TJ to duel for the captaincy? Swords or pistols?

Ah f@&k thinly-veiled code for it’s happening.

 

[Winestoppable]

It's definitely happening. Apparently unanimous decision between all parties involved.

Yeh what would all the players and coaches who train and hang together so much know?

 

[SgtSchulz]

We exist to make indecisive decisions.

 

[Janus]

Jonas and Wines agreeing to be joint captains should instantly disqualify both. There is no good reason for doing it. If neither have what it takes - and it’s clear they don’t after the wakeboard incident and the subsequent defence of it - either find someone who does or appoint one and train them like they did Boak.

And who the **** would unanimously appoint co captains? There would be an least one dissenter who wanted to keep the tradition alive.

These campaigners better win the flag this year if they are going to pull this shit.

 

[Forzaport]

Appointing co-captains would be rock bottom for the current regime. Dumbest shit you could do to this club.

 

[scottjr]

So we have 2 players going around with 0.5 on their back?

It's not the right thing. Should do whats right.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

So long as neither of them get the #1 I can live with it.

[PAFC66]

Basketcases go with co captains...

When's it ever been successful?

Already got the Wikipedia entry ready to go:

“In 2019, Port Adelaide took to the field with no captain for the first time in its illustrious history. There were two players who were listed as being captain, but neither wore the captain’s #1, so it was just for appearances and to make things official so Port didn’t forfeit games.”

 

[malcheski]

My only hope is Port has been feeding BS into the media about co-captains being a possibility, only to then name a single captain with a presser to follow saying we believe a single captain is the strongest decision we as a club could make to prove we can make the tough decisions moving forward an ultimate troll.

One can dream right??

Based on recent results absolutely **** all.
