With the recent bad news about Mitch and Trenners, surely a couple of players now need to be elevated into the Leadership Group.

That said, I'd like to see three: Dawes, Vince and Cross. These three deserve to be, and should actually be, in it.

Views?

I think Dawes, Vince and Cross are perfect examples of why we shouldn't worry too much about who formally is or isn't in the leadership group.

Nonetheless, if we're going to have one, they might as well be in it.

You don't like them?

I think these three are doing well and hope they stay fit and healthy

I think he's more just saying that they don't need to be formally recognised as 'in a group' to be effective leaders, which they are already doing quite capably.

Dawes is a must.

Dawes and Cross are clearly leaders at the club. Whether they need the title is another matter, but it's obvious that they are. I think Dawes being elevated is a no brainer.

I can claim my mancrush on Dawes even from his Collingwood days.

I love him off-field - speaks common sense.

On field - his big attribute is his willingness to do everything right. I have never seen a player influence a game and players like he does whilst not registering stats - blocks, shepherds, knock ons to advantage, open up avenues for smalls, spoiling, chasing, tackling, multiple leads up and back and a willingness to play in front, running to good spaces.

My only knock on him is his injuries - if he can stay on the park we have a gem

I liked it. More subtle than we're used to around here.

Nup. It went completely over my head. As deanox says, way too subtle for here!

Sorry.
