i'd have Green before Moloney....Green is melbs best kick for goal...could see him lifting the team with a captains goal one day!

No it should be Beamer because he is the best handballer in the side...

Best leader who will be around for 5 years at least - Moloney, McLean, or Davey.

Green and Bruce have been great servants of the club, and selfless and courageous players.

But leadership does not come naturally to those two.

Definitely Flash or Moloney. Junior will probably call it quits at the end of next year.

hard to say from outside but i'd prefer green/bruce to take it for a couple of years then hand it over to someone young (ie. grimes) that or davey.

I agree with you on both points - it is hard to comment without being in the inner sanctum, but Green for a while and then handing the baton on to the best of the youngsters seems the way to go.

One potential concern with the Moloney suggestion is that there may come a time well before he's reached retirement age when there are better leadership prospects and/or he's no longer in our best 18. It would make for an interesting dynamic.

Hmmm, ask Ritchie Van den Berg how the Porks solved that conundrum <_<

Indeed! Do we want to give Moloney the kiss of death?

Keep your eye on Jack Grimes in the next 3 years.
