Opinion First Captain under Walsh?

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Will this decision mean he has to get sensible haircuts from now on?

 

[Elite Crow]

If Walker is captain he needs to give up Twitter. No room for loose cannon comments.

He has toned this right down

Walsh: Walker! I thought I told you to shave that mullet!

He has toned this right down

Yea, I remember he got told to reign it after he went after Caro a few times.

A haircut you set your clock to.

He's also booked in to have his tatt's lasered off. Very strict dress and grooming standards for AFC captains.

If the AFC wants to be innovative in something, why not be the first club in AFL history to not have a captain. Each week all 22 toss the coin and attend the post match press conference.

Hurry up already. Is it that hard.

Worth noting that Tex was one of the few players (if not only) who was at the presser to announce Walsh as coach.

Took time from leave to attend.

He (and sloane) also went to the airport to meet the new draftees when they landed. Dangerfield and Otten caught the same flight back from victoria as them.

Has David Koch announced this on Sunrise yet?

Tex, Dangerfield, Sloane and Van Berlo all contacted draftees straight after the draft as well. I feel that there has been a bit of an audition going on.

Sing " Stand by your man" and hold up scarfes with it written on them before the game
....
Oh
Wait !!!!

 

[Sanders]

Neil Craig just fell off his couch

Did he fall boundary side?

 

[Sanders]

If true, I can honestly say this would be the most exciting decision we've made in years.

Just different, exciting, innovative thinking.

 

[Vooligan]

Wow, it's all happening! It's a pity I missed out on all this speculation.

Would be extremely happy with Tex as captain. The man oozes loyalty, leadership and I believe is the true on-field spiritual leader.

Picturing the coin toss makes me laugh

Gonna keep on assuming you're making shit up because the false prophet position during trade month is already filled.



He is a selfish player on the field though, it's just the style of player he is. Didn't want him as captain, but at the same time I don't think he's going to cut and run because he didn't get the captaincy either.

I don't think he's selfish - I think he just doesn't have enough faith in his team mates
It seems he thinks he has to do it all himself
That said he generally does " it all " pretty well !

 

[Pugsley]

Did he fall boundary side?

Did someone record it to DVD ?

 

[Elite Crow]

So no press conferences called yet?

I tweeted AFC but haven't got a response yet.

 

[Crow-eater]

It's official! Well done AFC! Nailing the hard calls.

 

[Campbell's Chunky]

Can't believe he hasn't played 100 games yet!
