Bmac, Jack, ldu, zurhaar, corr in the leadership group. Could also see Hugh in this group

 

[King Corey]

Mine is

Close to what I'd do.

Captain: Simpkin
Vice: McDonald
Leadership Group: McKay, Larkey, Davies-Uniacke, Ziebell/Goldstein (take your pick - 1 elder player)

Agree retain Luke as VC. Anything else would be a slap in the face and an unneccessary negative.

With Goldy as the "Godfather"...

 

[Val Keating]

It’s hard to get a thread going if you nail it with the first post.

Should’ve chucked one of the Ziebulls whipping boy in there, like Scott to at least get some traction.

 

[Sheezel2Wardlaw]

Lmac Captain
Simpkin Vice
Bmac, Zurhaar, Larkey, Taylor, Corr & LDU leadership group

 

[The acurate one]

What constitutes leadership? One should ask oneself.
While those mentioned can all football as we say, it doesn't mean they are all leaders. Or ready to lead, having experienced what it all looks like to be a leader.

Jy
Cunners
Goldy
Logue

[tazaa]

Captain: LDU
Vice: McKay
Leadership group: Jy, McDonald, Goldstein, Cunnington, Logue, Larkey

 

[SunnyBoner]

Captain jy
Vice LDU,Benny McKay,Luke Mc,larkey

Yep i like this too. Not sure why but i sense Benny Mac is rated really highly as a player but not so much as a leader. Maybe because he's seems to be very quiet and doesn't do much (any) media. I could be totally wrong.

 

[Psicosis]

Captain jy

I rekn Jack will still be in the leadership group (as he should be IMO), just not captain.

I hope Jack isn't on the leadership group. He'll struggle to get a game to be really honest. It's time we moved so the new captain has a fresh start under our new off field leadership team.

I understand. I agree in that I don’t think he will always be best 22 (all things going well). However he still is our best, if not our second best off-field leader. I see it as a support role for Jy.

It’s easy to focus on what Jack did on-field this year which wasn’t great, but people forget just how good he was in the media when the noble stuff was burning around him. I love Jy and he should be captain next year, but anyone that thinks he could have handled those interviews as well as Jack did is dreaming.

 

[swaeney]

Jy (C)
Luke Mc, LDU (VC)
Zurhaar, Larkey, McKay, Cunnington, Corr

 

[The Anvil]

Based on the leadership provided by Taylor and Zurhaar last year (in terms of getting the players together) both deserve to be in the leadership group.

I'd even have one of them in a VC role.

[The acurate one]

yeah imagine you're playing a bit of VFL busting your arse to get back in the ones. That is called leadership. Being a great footballer doesn't necessarily equate to being a great leader.

 

[The acurate one]

So we had the annual work awards lunch. The guest speaker was Joel Selwood, he was there to chat about his experiences leading a successful team.
As an aside he knows nothing about life outside of a footy club. Nothing.
I found that a real eye opener, he didn't come across as the brightest spark I'd ever met. That of course doesn't matter, he does seem to a be a decent guy. Anyways, he believes performance is what makes good leaders.

Not preparation or adversity, or effort to be your very best and lead by that example. But getting it 35 times.

So I walked away thinking Geelong have been successful, but it aint down to leadership. Just individual drive and ability.

So lets not have a leadership group, cause well Geelong didn't have one.

oh well

 

[The Nostradamus]

next on agenda vote for leadership group.

i still think jy and lmac poll the most and share captaincy for 1 more year
Sheezel i expect to poll well, larkey also

would like to see LDU also

 

[Makeshift Park]

I'd go for Captain - Larkey, Vice - Logue.
