first i have heard of that rumour. makes zero sense from what i have heard.Rumour is Yeo wants out so perhaps lets not give him captaincy... or maybe we should and he'll stay another two years ala Judd.
Nope it’s Be prefect for McGovern keep him focused and might make him play bit more on a manNo. The Captain of an AFL club needs to lead on the field but equally, they need to be the face and voice of the club in front of a camera. Anybody that has heard Yeo speak would understand that he is not that man. Great footy player but not that sharp between the ears is old Yeoy.
Shuey will captain next year and I think they will fast track Allen to take over in 2023. Duggan still a chance too.
I don't think that is fair, the guy just can't stay fit. He has started 20 of 39 games in the past 2 years, how many of these games did he finish uninjured, 16 odd? Let him focus on his body.Shuey simply cant be captain. Not a leader.
Yeo is ultra-competitive which is why he is so successful but his ultra-competitive approach will rub some guys up the wrong way, putting the most competitive guy as captain in the side is not necessarily going to be helpful. Berating some players will get the best out of them but it will destroy others, this is not an easy skill to master.Yeo has got better but in his first couple of years instead of putting a hand up in apology when he shanked a kick he would wave his arms around and blame his team mate for not running to the right spot. that sort of mindset doesn't suggest captain to me.

Our history with players and injuries once they hit 30/31 needs to be taken into account. Teams need their captain out there most weeks (obviously long-term injuries can happen, but excluding that). Constant stop-starting and change of captain due to injuries can't help.NicNat is the spiritual leader and face of WCE, he is enmeshed with the brand.
Time he was made a captain, speaks well, is smart and one hell of a player!
Maybe a dual captaincy NN+Shuey, to cover injuries to either?
(Or NN+Yeo, if Shuey is positioned forward or back in '22)
I wonder if Giants fans think this about Toby Greene.
