MFC Captaincy Announcement at 2.45pm Wednesday

[Robbie57 2,020]

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.

Done and Dusted i'd say on the basis of this information.

Grimes and Jones co captains

Clark and Frawley Vice captains

Good result only improved if they announce Frawley has a new contract.

If Clark is vice captain I guess he really is fit and ready to play.

[Disco Demons 92]

Team isn't strong enough for one captain to handle the pressure. Jones and Grimes are a natural choice.

Wouldn't like Grimes to be sole captain handling big losses each week. Needs to be shared.

[DemonOX 8,783]

I will take a stab from left field and say Shannon Byrnes, hes the oldest and has premiership experience

That must be a big knife u r having a stab in the dark with hh!

Hopefully it's plastic and u don't hurt yourself !

[Allen Jakovich 516]

Brent Grgic is a lock.

What big losses each week?

[ignition. 1,463]

My guess:

Captains: Grimes and Jones.

Vice Captains: Clark and Trengove

Others in the Leadership group: Garland, Cross, and Frawley (potentially also Dawes).

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,777]

And Pedersen in the leadership group.

Played in more wins at North in 2011 then Melbourne did under the Neeld/Craig glory years.

[TGR 1,367]

Can't be N.Jones surely.

Grimes or Garland perhaps...but no standout

Roos might pick 4 frigging captains...who knows.

Viney must be in the LG IMO. If not, it aint a LG in my book.

[old dee 23,781]

What big losses each week?

Surely you understand the concept Redleg

You have been living it for the last two years!

[old dee 23,781]

My Prediction: Jones and Grimes Co Captains ,Garland Vice Captain
My desire: Jones Captain, Garland Vice Captain

Interesting announcement,

Just talking to a mate who is dees fan.

He said who cares?

I ask what is behind that attitude?

I only care about improvement and winning I don't care who fills. the roles!

Why not jones?

When i heard we would be going for co-captains i thought they would be Donald and David Cockatoo-Collins.

Glory days....

[P-man 13,366]

Trolling surely...

It's HH, so it's entirely possible that he's serious.

[KingDingAling 3,752]

Jones is a lock, 2 years too late, but better than nothing.

[DeeSpencer 25,467]

Jones is a lock, 2 years too late, but better than nothing.

If Jones was made captain before he was even an established AFL player yet alone a good one and before he stepped up his leadership he wouldn't have been a good captain and probably not the player he is now. But now I have faith in him as I do Grimes.

[Whispering_Jack 29,780]

And the winner is ... Jack Grimes and Nathan Jones.

No surprises there ... congratulations to both - it's a great honour to lead the club.

[Buffalo 203]
