Just dont go to the Dawks board.

Who do we think will take the mantle when Simmo inevitably retires?

Maybe opt for a younger guy? I've been thinking about this alot, and in terms of courage and determination, I can't really pick another captain.

Any ideas?

 

[Laz1521]

Wells

 

[Boozeroo]

Spud Firrito by the length of the Flemington straight.

 

[NMFC ALWAYS]

Maybe Boomer for a year or two , out of the younger guys it would have to be Jones , Wells , Harris , Firrito and Mcintosh .

 

[j flex roo]

Harris or Firrito.

 

[numchuks]

Firstly Boomer.

Then Firrito if he moves back into the midfield.

If he stays at Fullback, then no chance.

 

[The Other Dean]

There can be only one.

Well, okay, technically you could go with co-captains.

Nevertheless.....

Robust Construction - Load, Aim, Squeeze!

 

[shinboner magic]

It has to be spud as he looks born to do it.

Harro and wells need to get a kick before they worry bout anything else.

 

[rickety]

Petrie, Smith if he can get on the park long enough, Lower - would be good for him, but Boomer before all of them

 

[wooostace]

Wundcke.

 

[NMFC ALWAYS]

Wundcke.

Nathan Grima VC ?

 

[kool kangas]

Maybe Boomer for a year or two , out of the younger guys it would have to be Jones , Wells , Harris , Firrito and Mcintosh .

l agree with Boomer for a year or two with Petrie as vice captain and firrito as deputy. Then elevate Drew after Harvey retires or steps down.

 

[Kangalicious]

Why are we even having this conversation??

Simmo - magnificent captain.

I'm basking in the wonder of his game last night - and suddenly you all want to discuss a replacement?

Cross face.

 

[cesc fabregas]

i think todd goldstein.
but seriously, d. wells or d. harris (or both)

 

[pharro]

Firstly Boomer.

Then Firrito if he moves back into the midfield.

If he stays at Fullback, then no chance.

Where does the reigning premiership captain play?

KK.....you took the words right out of my mouth. The Dish struggled with the burden of being put in the leadership group a couple of years ago (IMO), but he is starting to fit the role. I think the nod to captaincy will drag him into a more responsible and consistent performer!

 

[SweetLeftFoot]

Firrito.

There cannot, and must not, be any other option.

 

[The Teflon Dean]

Boomer, Then Spud or Drew.

 

[numchuks]

lol dunno.

I thought Ling was there captain.

 

[Bowski]

Gotta be Harro, I dont think Wells would enjoy the extra focus to be honest.

 

[Event Horizon]

Firrito

 

[kingcarey18]

boomer then hamish

 

[BoomerRoo]

Boomer easy

Daniel Harris vc

 

[budge11]

Boomer would be good as a captain; Drew maybe as a VC with Spud
