Yeh good luck to Dene White in the end his body was letting him down and I would have thought for that reason a change of captaincy was in order this year anyway. Clint Jones has to be a Monty with Troppy as his deputy.

Clint Jones would be a good captain. But in saying that he's already a leader on the field. The Captaincy could go to someone else with Jones offering advice.

Just on our recruiting I think thus
far it's been average at best.
On the captaincy I think Tropiano would be a shoe in.Has been at the club a few years,has turned down more than one offer to leave and leads by example.Clint Jones would also be there high up in the leadership group.

I agree 30plus. Recruiting this season just hasn't had the same lustre that last season had. Have got a couple of our own players back hopefully they can make an impact. If we get a couple of injuries next season to say Angus Graham, Spencer White and Brent Latch I reckon that will hurt us a lot.

Hopefully the club is in talks to get a second ruckman that can play up forward before the season starts. I know it's getting late and the longer it goes the more unlikely it is that we won't get one. I remain slightly optimistic though as Hamish Shepherd was signed about this time last year.

A fair chance that the new captain will be Michael Sinclair..IMHO

Personally, I would like to see Macca given the captaincy. Jones will probably only play another year or 2 and will be a good on field mentor for a young captain. Nothing against Trop or Sinclair, I just think Macca is the better choice for captain.

You mean Blue?
Victorians still laugh at West Aussies because of the way we bailed out the vfl and then allowed it to be called it the AFL!

Yes I think that's who they were referring to TFAF.

The Football Manager has resigned to take up a position with the Eagles.
