that was weird, but I wasn't sure exactly what old mate was referring to. I thought he was having a crack at the poster for having the opinion and us for engaging in the discussion. If he was just laughing at the do,ts that thought it was real, that makes sense too.
not so much laughing but pointing it out
 
Lots of stuff on here suggesting that Sloane is a bit of a self absorbed twat who thinks he's more important than the club. Just curious how people formed this view as I thought he seemed pretty decent. I must have missed some of the things he's said or done to show the sort of person he really is.

That’s how some roll on here. They pick their lovechild players and bag the rest to make their arguments. They bag posters also who talk about their bagged players in any remotely positive manner.
 
It'll mean Sloane will be a lock for every game this year, potentially restricting games for a younger guy, stalling development.
This is an assumption that’s propagating almost becoming a fact on this thread. You can always omit a captain if he’s genuinely out of form and whoever’s vice captain can take over the captaincy gig onfield.

Crouch was getting 30-40 disposals and was still omitted last season, so seems to me we’re not being afraid to omit veterans who are out of form. The thing I will say is that I think Sloane isn’t a guarantee to be playing in the first few rounds. Because he is still doing basic training, with strapping still to his knee.

So if he isn’t a lock for round 1, then I think the captaincy will be given to the next first choice, hopefully Dawson.

Moreso any older player that still gets a game while we aren’t challenging for a flag

Would be better if people just stuck to medically diagnosing them instead, both physically and mentally.

When the Captain can only manage 30 average games out of the last 88 as the clubs highest paid player and still thinks he is worthy of the leading the club at 33 coming off an ACL, it gives people the impression that he isn't a team first person

I don't think he's the best choice as captain but has he said that he thinks he should be?

collective minds. Sloane the go to spruiker on behalf of admin (Chappy the godfather of the club) that parroted the marketing lingo despite Rome burning behind him on his captaincy watch. He's simply an admin shill that is all about Rory. Do you think it's a coincidence that our worst ever half decade has been when he's captain or joint captain? Just unlucky?

was crouch the club captain last year? Are you serious, or just not too bright?

Would be better if you stick to the normal gags instead of the same recycled gags, when you haven’t got any good counter-arguments to make.

Honest question, why do you keep quoting me if you keep hinting that I’m an idiot? Do you like reading idiotic posts daily to make you become smarter?

Rhetorical question. No need to respond because you’re on full ignore mode now. Have a good one!

Collective minds.

Purely and simply, as a captain you stand up for your team mates and Rory acted like he was head of HR during the fallout.

To many, it is an unforgivable sin and one that showed that although he can drag team mates with him on the field, he just can’t lead.
 
I think the thing with sloane is that he’s built his career on being a hard worker and a supreme optimist

That’s his DNA ( sh1t term but true in his case )

He’s been told his whole life that he can’t do things and he’s always proven them wrong so he’s going to keep being himself ….. but it’s time for the club to move on and give captaincy to Dawson

You mean PR?
