Prediction With Selwood gone, who will get the VC?

[Bluke]

shuey for me, think he speaks really well and has had a number of consistent years now. Could see him as captain for a period of time before Sheed/Duggan are ready.

 

[Adzam]

Quite happily see any of the above options. Maybe apart from the Minson choice

 

[DrTomSwift]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhh gafff ahhhhhhhhhhh would be ahhhh good vice captain ahhhhhh

 

[Farang83150]

JK locked in.

 

[MWPP]

Priddis please . Great speaker and role-model, and plays a different position to our captain (defender ) and vice captain (forward ). I'd be ok with Shuey too for similar reasons.

I think Gaff will get it, spent a lot of time this season talking to media, composed, direct.

Has all the tools.

this was very noticeable

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Definitely Shuey.

 

[06Premiers]

JK was already joint VC. We'll just go with 1 now.

I'm leaning towards just keeping Kennedy but voted for Shuey. If the club feels we need another "official leader" Shuey has improved-I never saw leadership attributes in him as others did in previous years but noticed this year on the field his interactions with players more and was impressed. Is pretty consistent now. That would cover backs-Hurn, forwards-Kennedy, mids-Shuey. Nice spread.

Priddis would be fine but I would like them to start looking towards the Gaff/Shuey/Darling/Sheppard generation as that is where our next skipper will come from.

 

[Underdog]

EASY

I disagree aaaahhhhh.....I reckon ahhhhhhhh.... JK speaks ahhhhhhhhh... Better than Gaff

 

[Bluke]

Waters speaks better than all of them. Watching him speak at the Worsfold Medal night reminded me just how big a loss he is to the team from a leadership perspective. Would have made a great captain. A true leader in terms of action, but also had the thoughtfulness and delivery to go along with it.

 

[eagles rule]

eMac this year but I think in a year or two Elliot Yeo will be so ready .

 

[Freight Train]

Kennedy will be the one VC, I reckon.

Son of a bitch. I just came into this thread to post exactly the same thing.

Not only does Shuey deserve to be VC but he deserves to be captain. I love Hurn, but shuey seems like way more of a leader on and off the field. And he's great with the media.

 

[Doughboy]

Shuey or Gaff

We already have a Forward and Back, perhaps a mid to balance it out

 

[flamingEMBERS]

Shuey but why not Duggan

 

[Scotland]

All of the above.

Captain and vice captain is so 90s. We're the post 2007 Eagles. Include everyone in the leadership group. Even Selwood.

 

[The Gov]

Have discussed this with a lot of people lately - in the past I felt Shuey was letting the team down with his leadership, seem to remember him getting agitated by taggers, suspended for something stupid like elbowing once or twice a year (missing games where we needed him) and fading when it was important for him to stand up.

This season he's completely turned it around, no suspensions, have noticed a lot of positive on-field interactions, has a bit of fire and anger in his belly but has directed that into his game not into venting frustration and I'm sure would hate losing as much as anyone which is an attitude we need. His effort in the GF was mistake-ridden but he was constantly involved and trying his guts out - I would say he stood up more than most of his teammates. Gaff seems a bit meek to me in his approach, not quite angry enough for me. Hurn can stay the quiet captain but I'd like Shuey in there to really rev the team up. Also gives us a leader in the midfield as has been discussed on this thread.

Me too.

Is there no originality amongst us anymore?

To be fair, was there ever?
