Ox is talking generally, says Sylvia and Beamer would usually be walk up starts as captains but for the fact they played up off field. Says it's a statement. Still waiting for Grimes to come on.

Will edit this post once he comes on.

Look forward to it. But I must say Ox would have to be one of the poor interviewers on radio of recent times. Did anyone catch the Greg Healy interview last night ? OMG. Ox began with congratulating Sugar Healy on leaving his business for a position on the Melbournefc board as Melbourne Football director. Whereby Sugar quickly pulled him up on him not leaving his Quiksilver business.

Mark Allen initially referred to his position as executive director of Melbournefc, before later correctly communicating it the Football Director position.

Yeah i cringed when i heard Ox ask that question. Hard to fill Francis Leach's shoes, but Mark Allen doesn't seem to know his footy very well. A few weeks ago, they interviewed Marcus Ashcroft (who is at Gold Coast) - and Mark congratulated them on getting Jordan "Lizzle", as a good get. Marcus correctly pointed out to him that Lisle actually was signed by Brisbane.

at least the two of them are better than nathan thompson. I dont need to know that he doesnt like the look of stuart macgill.

I reckon Nathan Thompson has the Ox covered, myself.

For those that can't listen, will provide updates for ya. Look forward to hearing CAPTAIN JACK!

Are you suggesting that 'Captain Jack' is a slang term for something? haha

It was also a track on Billy Joel's 'Piano Man' album.

Saturday night and you're still hangin' around

Tired of living in your one horse town

you'd like to find a little hole in the ground,

for awhile..

So you go to the village in your tie dyed jeans

And you stare at the junkies and the closet queens

It's like some pornographic magazine

And you smile

(chorus)

Captain Jack will get you high tonight

And take you to your special island

Captain Jack will get you by tonight

Just a little push, and you'll be smilin'

Oh yeah,...

Your sister's gone out, she's on a date

You just sit at home and masturbate

Your phone is gonna ring soon, but you just can't wait

For that call

So you stand on the corner in your New English clothes

and you look so polished from your hair down to your toes

Ah but still your fingers gonna pick your nose

After all,..

(chorus)

So you decide to take a holiday

You got your tape deck and your brand new Chevrolet

Ah, there ain't no place to go anyway

What for?

So you got everything, ah, but nothing's cool

They just found your father in the swimming pool

And you guess you won't be going back to school

Anymore.

(chorus)

So you play your albums, and you smoke your pot

and you meet your girlfriend in the parking lot

Oh but still you're aching for the things you haven't got

What went wrong?

And if you can't understand why your world is so dead,

why you've got to keep in style and feed your head

Well you're 21 and still your mother makes your bed,

And that's too long

(chorus)

(chorus)

One of my all time favourite songs, captain Jack..... Who'da thought it was a US slang for something.that gets injected by junkies back in the eighties - nothing to do with Rum at all. Ah well hopefully our Jacks get us high over the next few years :-)

I reckon Nathan Thompson has the Ox covered, myself.

The only thing Nathan Thompson has covered is the seat he sits on.

That, and the market on vacuous fillers.

    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.
