Takes 2 Richmond Men too replace Cotch.
Says alot about Cotch and the burden he had too carry early on.

And still they both wont have the same amount of coiffure as Chimp...

Mate ,our guys are that close they dry root in the showers. Don worry aboud tit.

I wish they did - it would mean we could appeal the disgraceful umpiring against us as being LGBTQ non-compliant and if they don't fix it we'll sue them for discrimination.

 

[_Wang_]

Stoked for Nank, absolute heart and soul player

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Don’t buy into all the bullshit about co captains.

as captain of Richmond would just about be the hardest shoes to fill imaginable in footy that I can ever remember considering he’s still playing as a triple premiership captain, and has an aura that you can feel from the back row of the fourth level of the Southern Stand.
Having two and particularly these two makes absolutely perfect sense. Just another great decision from a club who don’t get much wrong these days.

 

[Goshka]

Dual captains is shithouse. Dark times ahead.

 

[RFCGloryJC]

It was a team decision.
Pleased they chose at least one player who plays in the centre.
Have to regroup quickly in the centre, at times, to address tactics.

That’s a very good point actually, how do you replace a triple premiership captain,,,with two of course , and fine candidates at that

 

[Tiger Outcast]

I like the idea, it's a bit out left field but we know Grimes has the expierence and Nank is a workhorse and has the grunt. It will work out fine.

 

[Tiger51]

Great choice, the experienced very deserving Grimes and a long term apprentice in Nank

 

[dderpppp]

Congrats Grimesy and Nank - you've got my support 100%

Yeah mate, don't see what the fuss is about myself.

Both have very strong leadership traits which compliment each other...Grimes clearly the most polished media performer among the candidates, Nank an absolute weapon at centre bounces in those key games when we need a leader most.

If we win the flag this year, who’s going to hold up the cup? Grimes, Nank and Dimma? How does that work? Do they play rock, paper, scissors?

Easy done...Dimma on one of Nank's shoulders, Grimes on the other.

 

[smasha]

Congrats to both Grimesy and the Nank.

 

[Cevap_Roll]

Let's just make them all captains.

The generation of participation awards.

 

[Tiger Outcast]

Let's just make them all croatian players captains.

EFA!

Negative: it’s soft

Well I'm convinced.

I get 95% of posters going along with the narrative, but was it a team decision? What were the perameters? Were we looking for dual captains (and why) or was it a tied vote?

Benny Gale announced 'Dual Captains' as if it was unexpected and not planned.

Was it a deadlock of votes that drove them to co-captains? Or a prefered leadership model?

Whats the deal?

We deserve answers.

 

[NaturalDisaster]

So, according to this thread, 2 people named captains in a squad of 40+ is going to be the difference between us doing shit or doing well

Two very deserving players

I.E. Was it a deadlock of votes that drove them to co-captains? Or a prefered leadership model?

Whats the deal?

I think you're over thinking it. It's a captaincy, not a CEO position.

grant thomas said on 3aw today that he reckons there shouldnt be a captain at all for any footy team

Two very deserving players

Reckon we should have two coaches? Or 4 captains?
