Jack Grimes to me is looking like Melbourne's next future captain. Thats my prediction.

With the 2nd half of the season to go I think we might hear some rumblings soon!

Grimes for captain next year huh? Don't you think we should let him settle into the game a little first? Perhaps give it to one of the older guys for a couple of years?

I believe if he has the leadership qualities we hear of there is no reason why we could'nt give the captaincy to the young fella. Looks the part when playing and shows poise and consistency. Maybe your right! But I think it could be a possibility. Will have a better idea at seasons end.

LOL... Mid-season break really is taking it's toll on the posters at 'land...

The kid's played less than 10 games. Give him a chance to settle into the 22 before we start talking captaincy.

So, as Jack's younger brother, how is the kid feeling these days?

Seriously. If it weren't for the fact they were so funny, these threads should be locked. 'ology has Friday Funnies, we have Sunday stupidity.

You got the wrong Jack dont you mean no 4 .

Seeing Watts perform on Camera hes a natural for talking to the Media.

So if he can live up to his potential hes a shoe in to be captain at some stage.

There is a third Grimes brother, he is only 13 but he is a class captain and a member of the debating team, he is the obvious choice.

Haha let's get 13-year-old mini Grimes on a program now, should be captain by his year 12.

Mamadou Sakho captained Paris Saint-Germain in the French top division at 17. But for us I think there should be a 25-game minimum!!

There are a lot of silly threads but at least our break isn't as long as some, a week and a half, could be worse.

I say we give it to Scully if we pick him up in the draft!!!

:mellow:

This is getting ridiculous.

:)

I agree -- can we please try and engage brains before posting threads please people?

:lol:

I'm amazed Newton hasn't been thrown up.....

:blink:

PS. Sorry...I was in the mood. :lol:

I would prefer this. Don't want Green as captain our old players are a cancer in this club. We should learn from making McDonald captain it has been a disaster. McLean has gone backwards. Our youngsters have to lead the older players have failed. Personally I don't think anyone should be captain they don't deserve it.

Agreed, Just let the kid settle. Brad Green or Beamer Moloney should be captain.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
