Brad Green will be captain

I am like many of you, I want Brock as captain, he is my favourite player, but as I watch the start of this video (http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=lA110Y3TS2Y&feature=related)

I realise, Brock as good as he is, he doesn’t lead (at the moment) by example, unlike Brad. As an example, how many times have we seen Brad go back with the flight and take a mark, one of the hardest things to do in footy. Yes Brock will be captain (at some stage) but I see Brad leading by example. Brock will win our B@F (if he isn’t injured) and he will is most likely to win a brownlow one day.

Is this a joke? Were you at Melb v St Kilda elimination Final or Melb V Bris when he played with a broken foot? 2 of the finest examples of a footballer leading by example, not to mention the $10,000 he chipped in.

:lol: I find that hard to believe. "He doesn't lead by example" on the field? Brock? Did you watch his games this season?

I've never seen McLean play half back flank thus having the oppurtunity to run back with the flight.

All you've proved is that you have a severe lack of football knowledge yourself. Nothing more.

Congratulations.

Did you mean that he doesn't get on the park enough? The guy screams leadership...

That said, if the club chooses it's too early (and I'd defer to the club on this as they would know a LOT more about this than me), AND if they decide a caretaker captain is the way to go, then I would have liked to have seen Green get the job. On that much I can go with you.

Won't happen of course, but we can wish.

Bruce will be captain the [censored] leading teams voting system will make sure of that. If the club wants to show the supporters that they will truely go the way of a youth lead revival instead of being forced to they will go for McLean but they won't they will go for the safe option and that is Bruce.

Dont think the post called for a barrage of attack but thats just Demonland suppose.

Personally, I wouldn't be at all disappointed if Green was given the job. He is a fine leaser on and off the field. And you are right, his attack on the ball and fearlessness along the back looks great on the resume.

Green playing out his days as captain with Brock and Miller VC's would be a great way forward in my opinion.

 

the first post gets attacked because there are alot of other threads regarding this issue that it could have been posted in.

And to say that Brock doesn't lead by example? well everyone is entilted to there opinion, but mine is very different.

Yes this topic has certainly been exhausted.

Dare I bring this up yet again, but, Brocks leadership off the field is still questionable IMO.

What you dont have to play half back flank to run back with the flight.

Thats a joke have you ever played footy?

So is the leadership of any demon player

Brocky needs another season or two developing his own game.

The player who steps up under pressure - and sets an example in the tough going is Green . He makes good decesions and puts his body on the line

Brucey makes too many errors .. and Macca is just past his best

I'm not confident that they'll give it too him- but I reckon if I was a young player Green 'd be the one I'd want to follow

I really believe any of:

Bruce, Green, Brock, Miller, Jnr would serve us well in 2009 as captain. I am dead against co-captains so hopefully a single choice can be made from that group. Moving forward Brock has to be the best long term option, therefore I think it is very likely he will get the job.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
