If Jackson captained the club it woulds still be an improvement on kane johnson
Would it Oxy?
I reckon if some of us had access to a PC 10 minutes into the first quarter of a match he captains, the site will be in meltdown.

Jackson isn't fit to be named in the same sentence as Kane Johnson.
He's a Kane Johnson wannabe, and a stuffing poor one at that.

I want Jackson to captain so that everyone understands what a crap club weve become and we all find other things to do in winter.

Hardwick said club captain Chris Newman, who's unlikely to play again this season because of a posterior cruciate ligament injury, would fill a defensive coaching role on Sunday.

Tiger skipper Chris Newman's season may be over (Herald-Sun)

Richmond captain Chris Newman may be cooked for the season.

Tigers coach Damien Hardwick admitted this afternoon his captain was "touch and go'' to play again in 2011.

Newman limped off with a knee injury in the opening stages of the Tigers' Round 18 loss to Geelong and scans have since revealed he suffered a strained posterior cruciate ligament.

"But Chris, we're still touch and go to see whether he can make it back for the remainder of the year.''

Richmond captain Chris Newman makes quick recovery

    Grant Baker

RICHMOND captain Chris Newman could make a surprise return as early as next weekend from a potentially season-ending knee injury.

Newman was subbed off just minutes into the Tigers' Round 18 match against Geelong and scans revealed a PCL injury.

Asked this morning if he was done for the year, Newman said: "I hope not."

"I was thinking that way early on. It has progressed really well and surprised a few. I did a bit of running yesterday and pulled up really well today, that was always going to be the test.

"So hopefully, maybe, I can start playing from next weekend."

Newman said he retained absolute faith in the direction coach Damien Hardwick was taking his young team.

"There’s no doubt we’ve been inconsistent and I think that comes from having a young group and just trying to find our feet a little bit," he told Triple M.

"Throughout the year we’ve been in a lot of games, particularly early in the year. I think we’ve lost five games by under 20 points and if you turn a couple of those around you’re sitting not too bad.

"That’s been the key this year. Damien Hardwick has got a fantastic plan in place and the trick is to execute it well and we probably haven’t done that well enough this year."

Season over for Newy according to Dimma.

Newy will put his hand up to play next week but Dimma said he's too an important player to bring back and risk for just one game.

No kidding

Can we apply this to all players who are playing injured at the moment  :-\

Why contemplate it. :-\
Put the injured boys in cotton wool and unleash them on a big pre season.
