Sir Doug Nicholls round got me thinking how many indigenous club captains we have had in the past. E.g. Goodes.
I cant think of any current captains.
And who might get there from the current crop?

Brandon Parfitt and Tim Kelly come to mind for future skippers.

Thoughts?
 
Adam Goodes 89 games (86 as co-captain) 50-38-1
Gavin Wanganeen 61 games 29-30-2
Polly Farmer 57 games 41-16-0
Steven May 42 games (29 as co-captain including 7 as acting co-captain) 11-31-0
Michael Long 19 games (acting captain) 15-4-0
Maurice Rioli 12 games (acting captain) 4-8-0
Chris Johnson 12 games (co-captain) 4-6-2
Shane Edwards 6 games (acting captain) 5-1-0
Shaun Burgoyne 5 games (acting captain) 2-3-0
Danyle Pearce 3 games (acting co-captain) 0-3-0
Michael Walters 3 games (acting captain) 1-2-0
Antoni Grover 1 game (acting captain) 0-1-0

Paddy Ryder tossed the coin in his 250th in Round 10 this year but not sure if he was captain for the match.
