PJ_12345 1,098 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Quicker than expected. Story of my life
Wormburner 674 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I'm excited.....bring it on Jonesy and Grimesy!
Demonland 74,467 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Personally I'd prefer one captain but that isn't the Paul Roos way.
Dr. Gonzo 24,468 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Get your tips in! Surely it's Jones although at Sydney Roos did have a triumvirate of captains so perhaps Grimes and someone like Dawes or Frawley as well?
Young Dee 1,303 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Personally I'd prefer one captain but that isn't the Paul Roos way. That was originally my view but now I don't think we really have one clear cut leader. Jones is an on-field leader while Grimes seems more an off-field leader. They might make a good duo.
Nasher 33,686 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Grimes and Jones co-captains is my bet. Grones?
Jaded No More 68,976 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I'm going Grimes & Jones too. But, Paul Roos can be unpredictable sometimes. Wouldn't be surprised to see Garland or Frawley in there as a trio. Pretty certain Jones is a lock in though.
All the Jacks 99 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Prefer one...Grimes for me and will be happy with Mr Jones if the there is two.. So glad this will be over, controversial topic with much passion
Barney Rubble 1,576 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 Story of my life Now I know what PJ stands for :- Premature jack
Barney Rubble 1,576 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 I think Grimes as captain. with a group of understudies. Jones Clark Dawes Garland Frawley
DemonFrog 1,359 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Lets appoint Roos as Captain/Coach LOL
stuie 7,374 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 For mine...Captains: Grimes, JonesVice: Garland, Dawes, CrossRest of LG: Frawley, Clark, Trengove
Machsy 2,858 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Personally I'd prefer one captain but that isn't the Paul Roos way. I'd prefer whatever the hell Roos wants.
Robbie57 2,042 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 anyone go to training and see who the boys are congratulating?
FarNorthernD 5,863 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Grimes and Jones co-captains is my bet. Grones? AKA Gronesy to his teammates
Steve13 457 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Hope Frawley has thrown his hat in the ring, would boad well for him committing to the club long term.
Captain_Jack 88 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 I was at the team photo shoot yesterday. Grimes and Jones sitting proudly either side of Roos, read into that what you will. Clark and Frawley either side of them but I don't expect to see a third captain, despite what happened at the Swans. The decision at the Swans was based on having a captain in each sector of the field, Hall (Forward), Kirk (Mid), Barry (Defender). On that basis if the third was to come from Clark or Frawley you'd have to favour Clark, I think they'd be more inclined to let him focus on getting his body and mind right to play footy. All theories, very likely everything I say is waaaaay off.
What 18,810 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 I will take a stab from left field and say Shannon Byrnes, hes the oldest and has premiership experience
Bedraggled Dee 336 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 I would not be surprisd to see Dunn in the LG
Red N Blue Society 165 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 Jones for captain for me Clark for VC...or vice versa if I had my way. I'll take a dual role if its the case and accept it whoever gets the two tier act...... but I dont like it simply because I am old school. Its what the club wants that counts though. Jonesy deserves a crack at it. Seasons nealry here People!
stuie 7,374 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 I will take a stab from left field and say Shannon Byrnes, hes the oldest and has premiership experience Trolling surely...
Chook in Perth 2,109 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 It's Grimes and Jones co captains.
Deeoldfart 8,205 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 My guesses: Capt: N.Jones & Grimes VC: Frawley & Dawes Remainder of LG: Garland, Clark & Cross
