Fritsch unlucky. Had put together back to back excellent seasons. Will hopefully have another premiership medallion to make up for it

I guess I don't know what leadership is because there is NO WAY I WOULD EVER. FOLLOW TOM HAWKINS ANYWHERE!!!!!

Way to make the award mean nothing….

Get [censored]. Multiple captains, a premiership winning captain and they choose [censored] Tom hawkins

Elbows at exactly 90 degrees.  Straight fingers.  Graceful flag waving before a neat roll up and tuck away.

Don't forget that pause for dramatic effect. Like a blues guitarist holding that note just a bit longer!

This takes the cake. Hawkins even surprised at it. I think Ling has spiked everyone’s drink during selection. 

Not watching this [censored] any longer. Hawkins as captain = straw that broke the camel’s back

WTF

Farcical.

To the barn?

"So tom, you're captain of the All Australian team!"

"I thank everyone at the Geelong footy club!!!"

If they want to award it like this, change the title from Captain to 'Bloke that's been round for a while and we want to recognise'. Worse than when they made Buddy captain 

Only one of two explanations 

Rigged or complete idiots that hate Max Gawn are making the decisions 

For the historians, are AA captains just always guys who have been around a while?

If so, I get it, but again I'd prefer picking a team with Pendlebury in as the AA captain, and Lingers and McLuggage as the wingers.

Basically, which team would beat the US All Stars if they played AFL?

Now we have to listen to Robbo again. I'm tired and have a bad virus. Stuff this

J Brown has backed up his appalling attitude to Zorko’s sledge with an inarticulate Bogan-like performance tonight. FMD there must be someone better out there than him.

Hawkins as captain completely devalues the notion of AA captain. It 100% should be Maxy

Hawkins captain? Ya mad?

Equally as bad as when they gave it to Rance. AA captain is often a selectors favourite/lifetime achievement  award

Absolute stitch-up. The good news is we play better when challenged rather than receiving pats on the back. 

A few stolen awards tonight, only assists our finals campaign

Batting at a roughly 50% punchable face ratio though, which makes me fear for Max's reputation amongst fans of other clubs!

Also, Gawn has equal or more premierships than all but Carey on that list #sorrydanger

All anger aside I am happy for Mark Blicavs, reckon he deserved his spot.
