Opinion McGovern for Captain

Oscar Allen should be our next Captain.

John Worsfold and Ben Cousins were both appointed at 22.

Oscar is 22 now, assuming Shuey goes for a couple more seasons he should be very much ready to go when the time comes.
 
Oscar definitely could be, but I doubt we will go that route.
We always seem to have a defender or midfielder as captain.

Few players have had the on-field leadership of Cousins - hence his youthful appointment.

...and what are the odds of all that happening again anyway? 😉

My point was we have gone down that route before - Oscar is the long term answer either way.
Sure but for every Cousins there’s a Trengove

Shitbox clubs make shitbox decisions.

We are not a shitbox club. 😊

I’m thinking 2 years down the line here - I’m taking a chance on Luke Shuey’s tissue paper hamstrings!

FWIW....Other young skippers:

Carey (21), Reiwoldt (when first appointed...22), Kernahan (23)

All key forwards too.. 😉
