the over-estimation of McDonald on this board is hilarious. first-year player, barely keeping a grip on his place in side, and you want him in the leadership group ...
Bit harsh, don't you think? After Thompson, he's my first inclusion in our backline at the moment.

Swallow, whilst a very good player, isn't a captain.
Agreed. He's an absolute workhorse on the field but you rarely ever see him yell at someone or bark orders like you see from other captains in the AFL.

I don't know about this need to see pain. Black missed a shot at goal during the game and punched one hand into the other with a cross look on his face, and it crossed my mind that it looked a bit silly and forced - like he felt he needed to give us a public display of dismay. The's nothing much they can show after a poor game, or a poor shot, or a poor kick or tackle or marking attempt, that makes me feel better about it. Only them getting it right the next time does me any good.
