Taranto captain? Lol

What’s wrong with that, has been one of our better plays this year. I went for Baker.

he wants the dual captains again

 

[lizard man]

Maybe 3 captains? The more captains the less pressure there is perhaps?

One for each of our 2017,19 and 20 premierships. Lol

There's about 10 triple premiership players in the team and Taranto has been there one year.
It would be ridiculous.

Changed my vote to Shorty. Look on his face at the end of last game he was not happy

Many would support it, Def an upgrade on what we have now.

 

[RICHOLEGEND12]

Dusty for a year or 2 then baker.

Dusty hates the media etc but who cares.

 

[Tiges1229]

Tim Lunch

 

[Wavvey]

I used to love our setup of Captain Cotch in the middle, supported by 2 vice captains in Rance in defence and Jack up forward. Would love to see us do something similar.

Taranto (C), Vlaustin and Lynch (VC).

Short and Bakes are both great vice captain options as well. Rioli is growing into a leader quickly too.

 

[Rubber Hips]

Has to be Dusty

baker and Taranto Vice

 

[TigerImposter]

I want TT bc he’s on six more years and an A grader. Dusty and Lynch unfortunately are not long term players. I hate changing captains too often.

 

[Charlie Pannam]

Has to be Dusty

baker and Taranto Vice

Do you reckon he’d do it, if it was offered to him ?
The media,
revving up team mates,
The extra bits and pieces around the club.
Not sure that sh!t rocks the great mans boat

 

[Tigerbob]

Reading the tea leaves I reckon they will offer it to Dusty.

“There’s more growth to come from Dusty”

“He can get even better” (not really possible unless they meant as a leader)

“Look to him to offer more”

Both Benny and Yze made sure it was mentioned in the presser.

 

[DickieKnee]

Give it to hopper …. Perfect age for it and I think he would relish it

Hard to do that when he's had one injury interrupted season with us.

 

[DickieKnee]

Captain Cotch in the middle, supported by 2 vice captains in Rance in defence and Jack up forward.

No one will ever match that in our current squad.
Even squads to come for the next 30 years. Cotch's leadership alone was a massive part of our success.

 

[Roachy8]

I can see it - with a new coach, Newy also back, new energy in the corridors at Punt Rd, press conference is called and Dusty is announced as Captain
He answers a few questions awkwardly, and then as he leaves, looks down the barrel and says “it’s my team now!”

Then heads straight to Benny’s office and signs a 2 year extension.

Just as long as we piss on Dimma's chips when we play GCS next year.

 

[THE THIN MAN]

I want every player to be a captain, have 22 of them.

They could all approach the umpires at the break between quarters and ask for explanation of their decisions

Gonna be hard to sub the captain.

 

[Daka]

Baker should be captain he is the right age bracket knows the group fully.
Taranto is a good case more for VC.

that is the leadership right there.
during our premierships it was only Cotchin - Rance & Riewoldt.
Others can still be leaders around the club without title.

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

D.Rioli...Then VC in both Dusty and Lunch...with Shorty as backup...
