FOOTBALL legends Joel Selwood and Erin Phillips will join the AFL's Football Operations department next year, with the premiership captains to take on part-time roles under footy boss Laura Kane.

Selwood and Phillips will focus on the on-field product as well as player engagement, with their status as recently retired players to give them valuable insights and links to the current playing groups across the AFL and AFLW competitions.

Like I've said before, if some old time player from kitty litter park even farts you think it's front page news and thread worthy.

Oh please Sookwood only knew how to dive in order to touch the footy. Without his cheating, he was as useful as Zac Dawson.

We're talking about the FOUR time Premiership player. The SIX time All-Australian - three as captain. The THREE time Carji Greeves Medalist. The FUTURE Hall-of-famer and legend. We're talking about captain, THE captain, Joel Selwood.

Only egotistical people care about all Australian selection. It's about as popular as a Rolf Harris cd.

Lucky you guys picked a champion who won 4 flags with you guys, with the pick before us, you would be dirty otherwise.

He tried his best with some gloriously stupid rule changes, unfortunately for Geelong they just kept running into Richmond.

Only 1 flag as Captain, so highly unlikely to be remembered by history as a great Captain, except at Geelong of course but you have to love his small town ideals.

Sounds like a massive cope to me. There are many captains, but when we talk about THE captain everyone who's anyone knows we're referring to Captain Joel Selwood.

If that is actually true, how come Richmond flogs have meltdowns over how many AA Jackets Tom Stewart has and Hawkins winning AA captain a couple of years ago.

Richmond supporters are a different breed
Even Stevie Wonder can see that the AFL have no stars and need to drum up interest some how.

It's just business as usual really.
The true statesmen of football are rewarded with positions of influence after they hang up their boots, and they help to shape the future of the game we all love.
Meanwhile, ratbag sides like Hawfs and Crygers continue to have an excuse for their loveless style of play, and point to "the corrupt AFL" as the source of their troubles.
Play on.

Nepotism?

Funny that both of the two ratbag clubs you mentioned have won 3 x as many flags in the last decade as Geegobble have won in the same period, maybe standing on your own two feet and keeping your pants on at AFL board meetings pays dividends after all

I heard the Nepotism extends so far with Geelong influential at the AFL that Benny Gale was blacklisted from even bothering to apply for the CEO job to replace Gil.

Also The Tigers are keen on Ben King, but the AFL have instructed him and his management that under no circumstances is he to join Richmond cause of the backlash after Tom Lynch.

He will be a Hawk or stay at the Suns in 2025.

Fortunately the new AFL CEO is a Tiger supporter and we got to keep Benny by far the best CEO in the AFL, back to the top with a bullet.

Delusional.

Enjoy frequent away games to Kardinia Park in the next decade for The Tigers
