News Dylan Grimes and Toby Nankervis announced as captains for 2022

[Karp3_dm]

No good will come from this. Ill tell ya that for nothing.

Lol a bit dramatic aren’t u?
What’s the worst that will happen?
The players get confused on who’s pre game speech to listen to?

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Would've loved my man Shedda but The Nank & Grimes both Richmond men.
Love it.

Did you even read the offical announcement? The decision wasn’t made in a vacuum solely by the players and it wasn’t just a popularity contest

“
Richmond General Manager- Football Performance, Tim Livingstone added that the selection included a multi-stage voting process that defined on-field traits, combined with character and ambassadorship in an off-field capacity.

"As a football club, we place enormously high regard on the importance of leadership. Clearly, our planning for our future leadership format has come to fruition in the last few months following Trent selflessly standing down as captain,” Livingstone said.

"We had a rigorous process, and after gaining a shared understanding of what it takes to be a leader at Richmond and seeking input from the entire football department and endorsement from the Board, we reached the exciting decision to have Toby and Dylan as our co-captains.”



I just always find it odd that as fans with no practical knowledge of how the club runs internationally we know better than the actual club

i was responding 2 your " Players selected them both and they are the best judge of who they want to lead them"

Goodes and McVeigh co-captains in 2011 and 2012.

i used to make fun of any club with co captains

no i am the fun

 

[Karp3_dm]

That’s how much the media hates Nank, can’t even put him in the photo

Hope he turns his back and raises his elbows to every flog journo there is throughout the year

 

[Bojangles17]

Good luck fellas TWO greater examples of living breathing RICHMOND men you would not see , go and get it done

 

[Nebular]

Grimkervis

 

[Bird Man]

I would love an in-depth interview as to why the club has gone down this path. Or at least a sports scientist's perspective cause I have no idea

 

[Stylo]

As long as they have clearly defined roles and don’t step on each other’s toes I don’t see an issue with it. Both are fantastic leaders in different ways and will complement each other well imo.

 

[Tiger_Gas]

if we pull this off every club will have co captains next season and essendon will have 3 captains all poached from our vfl team

 

[kozi]

It’s as good as co-captains is going to get

As usual we’ve done something better than everyone else

 

[Lord of the Wings]

Poor decision. Im not happy. Feel like it puts us on the back foot.

Never seen a company with 2 CEOs. Dud decision delist it

The media asked Nank to be in the photo and he told them to f off.

Buckley pushing for co-captains at the Ringwood 3rd’s as of today

 

[CASEYS9420]

Well this answers one question? Nanks the starting Ruck. Couldn't be happier with both Captains, tough, hard, aggressive with great Footy IQ

Netflix is one just off the top of my head

 

[BillHickman]

The Titanic only had one captain and look what happened there.
Go Tiges.

 

[Karp3_dm]

Pretty simple instructions for the players

Listen to Grimes
Watch Nank

 

[STRUGGLETOWN EST1885]

Just imagine taking short cuts at training etc and then Nank starts approaching you.
Awesome appointments. And Roaming Brian should be a must watch now.

Love these appointments. Grimesy. Yes !!!! Reckon BT will be s..... his dacks in the changerooms with Nank the tank on the prowl.

 

[SunshineBoy]

Congrats to the two lads, I’m not sure co captains us the way to go , but go get ‘em

 

[Charlie Pannam]

I honestly don’t see the issue with co-captains and would be happy if someone pointed out why/how it’s not going to work!
If it’s change from tradition then big farken deal!! you reckon players are going to try any less hard or it’ll change the result of one game, one quarter, one minute
