Opinion Our Next Captain

[Lefti93]

We can argue all we want, they're picking Wines and it'll go down as another horrendous decision in the history of the club.

I have settled on Houston. Rozee and Butters need more time to concentrate on their own games, Houston is at the peak of gis game, speaks well and fronts the media. Rozee and Butters into the leadership group though.

I agree it will be Wines but his form has dropped off, may be a victim of the Tinkerman's forever changing game plan.

 

[Jojay]

Houston for me.

Wines will be Jonas Mk II.

Not enough form of fitness to be captain.

Nor does he execute in the big moments.

vibes from Houston in that it makes sense but it doesn't sound like he wants it

 

[JUSTWORK]

Rozee and Butter being the two players send to talk to Grundy is a pretty good indication that they will be Captain & Vice.

they were already in melbourne for all aus night

 

[Long live PAFC]

As long as DBJ and Wines are no where near this, couldn’t care too much.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Seeing as he cannot be dropped regardless of stats, may as well give mcentee the no.1 guernsey .

 

[afl2004]

Who ever we pick is crucial to winning a flag next year ...... it makes no fùcking difference until the top dogs are gone

 

[Portology]

For what it is worth Houston was Captain of Camberwell Grammer (when he was drafted).

does that mean Vic media consider him a Good Bloke?

That's not a requirement. Just the school.

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

I think it will be butters to mitigate the go home factor

Hey, at least he doesn't pick and choose when to put his body on the line, unlike many of his more celebrated teammates.

Just saw that SPP sidestep again and cringed. This club.

I’m getting PTSD just reading your post. One of the softest acts I’ve seen from a Port player. Came minutes after the Horne-Francis “ball is a cake of soap routine”, which I thought was bad enough.

 

[shewho]

It depends on how fit Ollie is. He had major surgery last offseason and confessed that his knee still wasn’t right. It showed.

The captain of every successful team we have ever had, has been one of the top 5 players in the team. A fit Wines is still well and truly that. A half fit Wines is not.

When you look below Wines, Butters is the standout. He demands a standard from himself and others.

Don't be so sure. As I posted weeks ago there was some word floating that Wines wanted to focus on getting his body right again and on his form so was happy to move on from it.

I've just realised your Avatar is Port's game plan.

Yea well don't give it to him then, I want someone that burns to lead.

Sick of the nice guy Port rubbish.

 

[Grave Danger]

It ought to be him, but he's more Clark Kent than Superman lately - must've swallowed some Kryptonite.

 

[crafty_bernardo]

Cannot be Ollie Wines. Ideally it'd be JHF but he is too young. Need someone who can drive the culture & someone with a mamba mentality

 

[klem22]

Do we have anyone who is worthy of captaining the PAFC I'm not convinced we do. There is literally no one who would stand up and bleed for this club.
Koch and hinkley have nuked any resemblance of decency.

 

[TeeKray]

The closest thing we have to a leader is a half back flanker who as recently as 3 years ago put our entire season at risk by ignoring COVID protocols and hosting a party and orgy with Lil Pisty. Lol.
