Co-captains: maintain or change?

[one-eyed]

Current co-captains: Dylan Grimes and Toby Nankervis

The Tigers only made a captaincy change earlier this year with Dylan Grimes and Toby Nankervis taking over following Trent Cotchin’s success-laden era as skipper.

That is likely to be the captaincy setup for a few more seasons at least.

Nick Vlastuin is considered a future captain and could one day hold down the role if the Tigers make a change in the coming years.

I’ve never been a fan of co-captains. Always preferred the traditional setup of 1 captain, 1 vice captain and 1 deputy vice with another couple to round out the leadership group of desired.

In saying that I think grimes and nank will get another season at least.

In the tail end of the season when grimes was injured I felt our team looked better with just Nank solo captain. I think there should only be 1 captain

I am not a fan of co-captains. For the majority of 2022 I don't believe it worked for us at all. Think both players struggled with it.

Agree with Lamington, when Grimes was out Nank looked more comfortable as Captain and the team looked better

Having said that I don't expect it to change in 2023 unless one of both decided to step away from it

100% change based on last year... Nankervis struggled in the role in my view. Either way I will back the club and captains regardless.

Was never a fan of us having co-captains but don't see the point when they fail to stand up and they make crucial schoolboy errors. Experienced players should know better about how to play wet conditions.

Agree. Change.

Not sure who should take over though. I feel strongly about putting a line through Baker as he has no respect for the football and shouldn't be setting an example to anyone about how to possess it.

No one stands out more than Graham. Heart and soul player

I agree but he's not a good enough footballer to lead the team.

This is an easy one and should have been changed this season. Tom Lynch. I don't want any replies.

I am very concerned at the lack of leadership bring developed. Maybe it's Jayden Short, maybe it's Vlastuin it Graham but are any in any leadership group?

[Willy]

We don’t have a standout skipper atm

[Assange Tiger 😎]

Daniel Rioli the closest thing to being a good enough footballer to be captain + his never give up run and attitude from down back is class. No idea how he speaks to the group or if he has any actual leadership qualities but..

[WilliamPowell]

Never been a fan of co-captains and despite what the club says or suggest IMHO it doesn't work for us

I've banged on about this a bit but I wish the Club would tell us who are "emerging" leaders are. Going by what's been reported and the crickets out of the Club we don't actually have a leadership group. We just have the 2 co-captains. Which is staggering to me if accurate

[TigerLand]

Agree WP, we had a very clear leadership group across all the lines. Do we have a vice captain?

No we don't have a VC
