Oh you mean On-field, do you mean Seller, is He our 'Leroy Brown'... Is that why we went for him, big, strong, aggressive???

who knows? Hopefully Neil Craig had some good info...but we certainly do need the enforcer type at the club.

He did not show a lot at the Crows, i think he was delisted?

Why do we think he is going to be a world beater at the dees?

I do not expect much beyond a bit player role.

Was he delisted under Craig's watch ?

I checked H_T he was delisted, have no idea if Craig had any involvement

Interesting view on the importance of captaincy from Glenn Archer from a Herald Sun article.

Archer said: "I don't really care who is captain. At the end of the day, it's more the leadership group than the captain. If Boomer was to stay on for another year, I don't think it's going to hurt anyone.

"But if he was to hand it over to a young guy like Jack Ziebell, that would have positives, as well."

Asked if Ziebell, 21 next month, was ready for the captaincy, Archer said: "He has got to toss the coin and give a bit of a pre-match speech. I don't think that would be too hard for Jack."

He makes some interesting points doesn't he. The leadership group is more important to Arch, and he would know. He always played flat out.

Rather than trawl through 10 pages can someone confirm when the captain and leadership group will be announced.

Before the NAB Cup.

Craig resigned/sacked/boned on 25 July 2011. Sellars was delisted at the end of that season.

From Sellars record at Adeliade, Craig was not picking him much. it would have been doubtful that both could have been at the Crows in 2012.

My point was though, did Craig have any involvement in the decision to delist him at Adelaide ? Given Craig was boned/sacked/resigned graciously before the season's conclusion, I doubt Craig had the final say at Adelaide on Sellars (ie not under Craig's watch), and given he and Viney may have put forward Sellars name in a positive light as an option for late in the draft for Melbourne's recruiting (and a second chance) of a tall KPP - I believe Craig may have been a tad surprised at the Crows decision.

I hadn't factored that in, but both Craig & Viney would have coached Sellars whilst at the Crows...Let's all hope they both knew something that the crows don't, going forward.

Read post 290 on this very thread:

"I was listening to Neil Balme on the radio the other day and he stated that the leadership group is considerably more important than the individual that's made captain."

My pray list is getting a little long wyl!

not sure I have time for one after

- Davey returning to form

- Green back to 2010 form

- Grimes and Tappscot staying healthy

- Fitzpatrick firing up

- Clarke being worth the dough we are paying

- you know who getting more than 4 touches a game

- Cook getting a game in the Casey seniors

- losing by less than 10 goals at Geelong

and the dees having a game plan that they can implement.

Not sure my knees are up to too much more time beside the bed.

I will bring some sedatives to the AGM O.D. You are definately in need after years of heartbreak.

I genuinely believe that we have a great coach beginning his reign...

Only results will tell i know...

He did not show a lot at the Crows, i think he was delisted?

Why do we think he is going to be a world beater at the dees?

Apparently they played him as a forward. And must have judged him thus.

It seems we are looking at him for defence? or as our LeRoy Brown?

Had a knee Op just before Christmas and back on the bike last week wyl.

Slowly coming good.

My wife tells me to fire up a dees player would have been back in full training 2 weeks ago.

Only difference is about 45 years!
