To change now would be ridiculous, and simply won't happen.

Give it to Joel. He's the vice captain.


and in doing so drop Sugar's sorry ass to Coburg.,

Agree with GB. They won't change it mid-season. We're tanking so it won't make a difference anyway. Hmmm 5 minutes to go and you put Krak in at the centre bounces and Meyer down back when he's been played all year up forward  :shh.

Dont think we are tanking.
Whats the point anyway, they will probably pick the wrong draft pick anyway.
When players such as Tambling on sat nite cant hit targets 25 mtres ahead of them.thats poor skills, not tanking

Joel is not Vice Capt he is Deputy.

Our Vice capt hasn't hit the paddock this season - his name is Nathan Brown  ;D

There was a photo in the MX tonight of Sugar and Rainesy walking off the ground after the game. Sugar was staring at his right hand with the break and the caption said "Maybe time to have that hand surgery Kane".

The fact that the man has been playing with a broken hand is something that is sadly lost on some people who write on this forum.

Yep, meanwhile, we don't need to wait for the media or opposition to bag our players...we seem to do a good enough job ourselves...

I too would like to see Johnson stripped of the captaincy, but it's a bit harsh on Coburg to have him, send him packing. :lol . I would have Joel as captain and Deledio as vice with Richo as the stand in.

If Lids plays like he did on the weekend for the rest of the year he might end up with the little c after his name in 2008.

Exactly!  :clapping He shouldn't be out there! If you're not 100% fit you're letting the team down! Except for the inpromptu corrective eye surgery Krak performed on Richo! He's going a right treat since the knock and his hand eye coordination has never looked better!  :thumbsup :thumbsup

Maybe in the future, but not next year because it would be too much of a burden. Let him blossom into the footballer we know he will be before any talk of captaincy

True bluey. That's why I said if he plays like he did against Essendon for the rest of the year. If he plays at that standard consistently then he's on the way to becoming the player we hope him to be and would deserve to be in the running for the captaincy.
