After his off play free kick in the 3rd QTR, he must be stood down as captain and sent back to the 2's.

Make it happen this week.

No leadership skills whatsoever.

I think Brad may have four games left to play in his career.

Looks totally cooked to me.

Do you think you could label your topic as a question rather than a statement it would add some accuracy and save me the trouble of readuing it.

You idiots

Go on then, explain to us all how this bloke has done anything right as captain this year. I think he should remain on the list next year, but if he serves up games like he has this year, feel no remorse in dropping him.

He's been pathetic this year, get him out of the Captain's chair and put in Trengove

why???....he has been no good as Captain, he can't handle pressure or something, he needs to go back and just be able to concentrate on own game.

It's such a pity that there are so many supporters on this forum take out their own personal frustrations on our players. If you have played the game to any modest standard you would have far greater respect for the skill effort and challenge of these players pushing their guts out for our enjoyment. What happened to Tappy and Straus today could have happened to any one of our players. These are freak accidents and they do it for our pleassure and if you get no pleasure out of just supporting our team then go an look for something else to do with your life.

Bit off Topic there H. i hope Brad stays on our list next year, but he is no captain. And yes it has been a large disappointment this year.

If this broken down old club is going to prosper we have to make the right decision about the Captain.

To be absolutely honest, i am not sure who it should be, but it sure isn't Brad Green sadly....

There lies one of our main problems....

The fact is that Brad was the best choice of captain at the time and still is now.

Everyone is getting frustrated and want him gone thinking it couldn't get any worse. But it can.

No one else on the list is ready to be captain.

Trengove should be concentrating on his own game. He is a second year player. Calls for him to be captain are crazy and not well thought out. Watts has barely played 10 good games. He is not an option for captain.

Is Brad a [censored] captain? Hell yes. But we have no one to replace him with. If we made Moloney or Davey captain, we would be having the same discussion next year about them.

sadly you are Spot on....Brad is a nice guy who does love our club, but the captaincy has become a ball & chain around his ankles.

Do any of his tackles stick this year??

eight minutes into third quarter at the city end and Brad Green near the 50 metre line goes sideways looking for Watts in a contest. greeny of old could have gone back and slotted it. lot of people screaming have a shot. gee it's a long way back home.

'Pushing their guts out.....' Remember 186????

Last year Brad had a great year playing all over the ground. I would love for Viney to put him back in the middle and tell him to get into it.

Lets admit it. Our delivery into our forward line is appalling. He looks good in a win because the ball comes to him.

Yes, but a captain must instigate....that is not Brad's game. i wish it was.

Top player over the course of his career and i'd be happy to see him play again next year.

I'd be disgusted if he plays next year as captain. He's been a failure as a captain, must either stand down or be removed post season and concentrate an his own game which has been very poor this year

If Toddy is fair dinkum, Green won't be selected next week.

Fair enough .

Read this in the Age today, quoted to Brad Green in regards to Dean Bailey.

"I totally feel sorry for the guy, the playing group loved him, he's a great man. But them's the breaks when you're out of contract and you get done by 32 goals."

The quicker he is no longer captain the better.

Fair call... What about Jamar as captain? At least he is solid at the game. We should forget about the captain being media and sponsor savvy for now and just have a captain who can lead, in a fashion. If Jamar is enticed away from the club as is rumoured, then what about Stef as captain?

GGggguuhhh! I was fuming when I read that rubbish! Thems the breaks when you have no leadership by your captain and leadership group.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    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.
