I think his incident after the 2017 GF would rule him out in the eyes of the higher ups though.

They were exceptional higher ups

 :lol true that brother.

It was a wonderful snap, in my view.

Clementine Ford wanted him sacked over that - should've made him captain right then and there. :shh

Matthew Lloyd on Footy Classified last night said Baker should replace Grimes & Nankervis as captain next year.

Wouldn’t be opposed but I don’t know what he’s like around the club

Don't mind who it is but co-captaincy was a silly idea.

Oh also I’ve crapped on about this fantasy before but I think it would be epic if Martin became captain.

Bakes would be the perfect Captain as he does everything right on field, and has developed off field. Personally I would love him to get the gig.

And I would put Broad and Taranto as the Vice Captains. Broad is well respected :shh

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.

So if we had called Grimes the vice captain you would not have had a problem

FFS its just a title nothing more.
Every club has its leadership group. Call em all captain it means nothing.
