Captaincy (poll)
- Thread starter Tigers of Old
- Start date
its hard to guess the next captain given I really dont know how the players interact within their four walls
Baker is one that could blindside a few here , has a lot of inner drive , is very skillful , is also very courageous
he might get the nod from enough players to be the next captain ???

Difference is Cotch won a Brownlow in the year before becoming captain, albeit we didn't know it at that time. He was one of the best mids in the comp.
Graham is coming off his best year and was the first year he played all 22 games. But there are still some doubt about where he sits in the best 22. As was mentioned, dropping your captain is not a good look (neither is turning a blind eye to your captain's performance because he is captain)
That all makes sense BT.
Who knows, except possibly the brains trust at Tigerland?
If training and leadership at training is part of the equation and the need for the player to be an automatic 1st team selection, then do not be surprised if Nathan Broad makes the leadership group. He's been out there from day 1 and has taken various players under his wing.
I think you will find the date for the announcement will probably co-incide with the date they actually announce the new captain, RFC style.
It's more of a Gilligan-AFL style process to issue press releases announcing things like: "We are going to release dates and venues for the first three games of Round 10 the day after the conclusion of the last AFLW home and away game. Stay tuned."
Pretty sure the Captain vote thingy happens on their week away, towards the end of it. Then the footy committee adds their thoughts. Then they'll ask Dusty one more time if he's sure he doesn't want it, then they'll announce.
As a few have said and it didn't initially register for me but Lambo would be a great choice but I would love to see Dusty captain us to a premiership.
Lynch will be right in the mix and it would be great just to see the online meltdowns. Lynch is hated, as is Cotchy by opposition supporters.
We are blessed with multiple options.
Whoever gets it will be lifting a cup come September.

Reckon we might break with the norm and do Dusty and Grimes Co Captains.
Any two of Lynch, Graham, Nank and Vlastuin Vice.

Yeah Grimes for me too. I picked Nank in the poll, but was more with my heart than my head.
Just curious as to what the lots of boxes that Shorty ticks are?
