Marc Murphy - Softest, least inspiring captain in the history of the AFL

[royals1922]

I didn't think I'd say this but... Bryce Gibbs would make a better captain

Bitch Robinson would too

Travis Boak, everything an AFL captain has to be ...

Yeah i'd go Boak or Selwood (obviously) for current captains.

Murphy is soft but he racks up touches and can kick clutch goals. Maxwell and Mitchel have been the two worst IMO in the past decade, and both have rightfully been punted.

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

OP never saw Wayne Campbell or Brad Green.

You have to give the Cats some credit too. Once they eventually realised Bartel was a front runner and a chip scab of the highest order, they dropped him from their leadership team.

Will have 35+ touches at over 80% efficiency and kick 2 goals next round. It's how the universe works.

What, just to spite Richmond?

I am sure there are a lot of syds that jizzed at murphs captaincy announcement - not me. My preference was Simpson.

Not to spite, just because it is Richmond. Watch Waite kick 5 as well.

Kind of like a very very very very very poor mans Luke Hodge.

Yep, Luke Hodge is obviously wealthier, after all, it's obvious, just imagine the food Hodge consumes, it'd take a mountain of money to afford his grocery bill each week ...

surprised no one mentioned this bloke tbh

Why did this thread go longer the first two posts?

The way this bloke guards space

The key angle to this is NO ONE wants to mention this "bloke". Ever.

History makes mention of him enough.

Not to mention paying someone to polish his 2 Premiership medals and his NSM.

Is Simpson another leader-by-example, or does he get on blokes on the field to do better?

He just strikes me as another quiet bloke that just does his thing

Andrew Swallow, thread.

Great leader, shit player. Still better than Marc being the softest Carlton captain there ever is.

That's a high bar to reach, isn't it.

No one questions his courage and ability to keep going, pushing and striving regardless of result, and is a lot more vocal then most. Carrots is the same.

Wah wah wah he pinched me wah wah wah

Does he have trouble bending over & reaching around his tummy to do those chores?

 

[DrEvil]

Bitch Robinson would too

Mitch would be knocking out too many teammates and kicking too many own goals.

You seem genuinely in pain. I hope the love that infuses your posting overcomes the hurt.

 

[flamingEMBERS]

Mitch would be knocking out too many teammates and kicking too many own goals.

at least he wouldn't front run.

Hahahaha!!!

Won't be putting that one on his eResume.
