Unless you are a Wayne Carey or Jono Brown type pretty tough to be captain as a key forward.

He averages 9 disposals a game. He will end up getting criticised for not influencing games when that is just the type of player he is.

His last two seasons have been well down on his 2023 so I would be letting him concentrate on getting a kick rather than making him captain.

And even then it didn't work great for Brown because he was injured a bit as captain wasn't he?

Carey was captain at the right time for a CHF because he was the focal point in a strong team in a position where he could drift up to the midfield and get involved but the game was geared towards high numbers of inside 50s.

Souva is a FF usually, thats the worst because when North have a bad day you can't just throw him in the ruck to get him involved in the match.

Feels like at this point captains need to be either midfielders or defenders.
 
I did say this in jest. BTW, Chris Scott is selling his Geelong house... what does it all mean.

He's renting the Duncan house. He must be worth a packet, and contracted, can't see him having the energy to go anywhere else. Maybe go for the weather if Pops Fagan abdicates?
Building a new home near daughter's school could be on the cards.

Negative move if she's at GC. I have no idea how many kids he has.
Newtown is a great location to bring up a family.
Walking distance to KP as well.

Just the one daughter.
Yes GC has always been good, but from experience, if you have the money, Grammar is elite.
Very International- They have everything that opens and shuts, plus Timbertop and foreign Student exchange..
Scott's wife is English. Don't know more really, just the house business.

Reports from some stage within the last 12 months is that they were looking at real-estate options in Adelaide

Hmmm, they could invest anywhere, but Adelaide wouldn't be my first choice so sounds ominous with two AFL sides sniffing around. Plus you'd think he'd want QLd sun, his old stomping ground and the Godson's family lair.
Guess time will tell.

I think the Adelaide connection could be due to Sarah - that's where she was born, so maybe some family in the region and could have been looking for a holiday home type thing

It was interesting when those reports came through and speculation as to why

I thought English, must be getting mixed up with cricketer's wives.
Good luck to them for future plans, her business has done well, and so have GFC.
All we can ask.

I had to double check on that and she's spent time in London - there was an article a few years back regarding her and the beauty company she's co-founder of

Born in Adelaide -> primary school in Japan -> back to Aus to finish school & study nursing -> off to London where she worked in dermatology and cosmetic surgery

So there is an English connection

They're not flush with options
