Which qualities?Shuey is the obvious choice for mine - unless they want someone "long term"
For the next crop the likes of Duggan and Rioli perhaps
I don't see Yeo as captain material - great player - but IMO lacks a few of the required qualities for captain.
Which qualities?
A lot of people thought premiership captain Shannon Hurn wasn't captaincy material too.
I would see Shuey as an interim coach before Duggan. Do not think Duggan will be ready by 2021, would prefer him to have a couple of years as understudy to Shuey.Our best captains have been defenders - Worsfold, Glass and Hurn. And by the end of this season they will be the top 3 for games played as captain of West Coast as Hurn will overtake Cousins later this year
Don’t see any reason why Hurn won’t be captain again in 2020 by which stage Shuey might be too old and they’ll look for someone younger like Duggan. He seems a natural leader to me even if he’s not in the leadership group atm. Elevate him into the group next year ready for him to take over in 2021 or even 2022 if Bunga’s body and form hold up

Ben undoubtedly set the bar high on-field but he also helped tear the club apart with his off-field antics. A good captain makes headlines for his leadership and class, not for evading RBT's and jumping fences.The old No 9 wasnt to bad
