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.

Ive heard rumblings that Tom McNamara is suppose to have great leadership qualities, what about him for captain in 2010 and beyond??? ;)

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.

Would have thought either Green or Mclean would be next

Grimes IMO will be captain one day but at his age it wouldnt be politically correct :P

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.

I heard Darren Kowal was interested in the job, surely he has to be the right 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.

This is getting ridiculous.

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

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

Aaron Davey?

Sure is one of the few candidates that is standing up on the field. Brad Green, Brent Moloney are two others.

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.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
