Dylan Grimes and Toby Nankervis will lead Richmond for a second season as co-captains, following endorsement from their peers, football department and the Board this week.
The playing group and football department, working closely with the Club's Head of Leadership Development, Shane McCurry, review leadership annually through a process that includes multiple stages of voting, discussion and evaluation, that is based on criteria developed by the playing group.
Richmond General Manager- Football Performance Tim Livingstone said that the pair had flourished as leaders while continuing to set high standards.
"Dylan and Toby led our group and broader organisation wonderfully in 2022, complementing each other while also leading as individuals terrifically well,” he added.
"We are looking forward to seeing them continue to grow with the role this upcoming season and are delighted that the group has endorsed them for another year.
“Together they are great drivers of our culture and values and excellent contributors on and off the field. It will be exciting to see what these young men can help us achieve in 2023 and beyond."

Prefer one captain for me didn't work out at all last year.
-
Agree it should be one captain but once you go the 2-captain path is pretty hard to tell one of them they are out after a year. They've made a rod for their own back with their original decision.

Couple of Smokey's I would have liked
Broad
Baker
D Rioli

I reckon Taranto will be captain as soon as next season.
-
I prefer 1 captain with a vice and deputy vice too but didnt think it would change after only one season.
Let’s see how it goes this season.

I am not a fan of co-captains, never have been
Personally, didn't think it worked at all for us. Thought Nank was at his best when he captained the side on his own after Dylan got injured.
No surprise there qasnt a change. Hopefully, it works better in 2023
What I would like to know is who makes up the rest of the leadership group? Do we have one? Last year there were crickets when it came to our leadership group and emerging leaders

X 2 regarding that last part. Would be good to get some clarity on that. Like what happens it both grimes and nank are injured at the same time?

Riewoldt and Cotch were sitting either side of Nank and Grimesy in the team photo. So, Jack may be next on the rung again.

According to the AFL website, we're the only club who hasn't named either an official vice-captain or leadership group.
