MFC next captain

Neita will captain next year if he wants to, and in our 150th year, so he should.

McLean, Rivers and Bate to learn off him and be ready to take over in 2009.

I'd be happy if McLean was made captain next year, but only if all parties felt ready.

This is the most common sense answer to the current captaincy question........

Neitz, should and hopefully will, be captaining the team for the what is going to be a huge 2008 season.

Beyond that there is no surprise that I also think that McLean is the most obvious and stand out candidate

But I am not totally convinced that he is quite ready yet to take over the role full time, at this point in time, or maybe even next year.

What is good to see is that there are a number of the younger players (McLean, Syliva, Jones, Rivers) who seem to have leadership qualities.

And this can only be a good thing for our future :D !!!

    BBP - an inspired answer, and very funny stuff.

    Sometimes I wonder what TJ - God bless him - is going to get up to once his career winds up.

    Biffinator

    I believe he will be undertaking a pHD in Science or IT.

    But seriously how funny was it when the cameras focused on all our injured players. Bruce, Neitz and Green looked absolutley focussed on the game and smiling after an MFC goal. Meanwhile TJ looked bored out of his mind, yawning, checking his mobile for race results....funny stuff!

    yep...here we go yet again....

    Neeta will captain next year.

    His successor will be all apparent by his attitude and play on the field next year, to some minor degree this year but am prepared to see the effect of the new coach.

    As the wise ones say....all shall be revealed in the fullness of time. Dont sweat it people. The future is bright and it will happen just not overnight. Be patient.

    I would have thought Brocky was a monty...but lets see if he truly rises to the job. ( i have confidence )

    Neita for 1 more year. I want Neita to captain the team in our 150th year...this gives Brocky a chance to get back to where he was before his injury earlier this year.

    Neita 2008

    Brocky 2009

    It probably is if you want t see Neita get the gig next year ;)

    I suggest the coach incumbent may have a bit to say on this incubus.

    If Neitz decides to play on in '08, a change in leadership should not be out of the question.

    I will forward you the email where the exact same quotes are tagged onto American sport stars.

    Someone decided to change all the names to AFL players.

    For one, when did our club find enough money to send the players to Egypt? ;)

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.
