I've been watching Tuck a lot closer this year and although his disposal is not top shelf he is our hardest nut at the ball in the midfield.  He is playing a very physical and important role, especially while the majority of our future mids are still growing into their bodies.  Captain - no, trade or replace - not for a few years yet.

yes very strong in the body is Shane Tuck,  his very good at getting his arms out in a tackle,
has a style that is great for the kids to watch & learn from him,  when getting tackled to get your arms free & lift your body above the tackle to let off the quick handball to keep the ball moving through the midfielders.
Only negative with this style is you leave your body open for punishment, taking one for the team is what l call it  :thumbsup
One of my favorite players is Tucky & one who will protect your Cogs when he returns Smokey  :thumbsup

In a word...NO!! Tuck is a foot soldier, not a leader.

Give it to Richo for a year, then Deledio for at least 6.

Tuck is my favorite player in the team as I love the how he is always working hard. He's is not the most tallented player we have as it has been said before. But he's a hard worker. I saying all this I still wouldn't give him the job as captain, we need just a littlle something more than he's got. If I had to vote today for a new captain it would got to Newman is the one for me. But if Shanee was to get the job I would be really happy you never know it might really bring more out of him.

Anyone know why Tuck has tape on his ears during matches?
My parents bought me a Richmond jumper and enrolled me in a junior footy clinic in 1981...look at me now.

More to the point, should it be noted in the footy record as a gear change.  :lol

he tapes them back like rugby players, unlike all our other players, tuck is the only one in our team that has his head over the ball 24/7, dives into every pack and as a consequence has had his ear lobes ripped. so he tapes them to protect them as he knows he is the only one who really goes in hard 200%

never ever see captain pee pee fight and protect as hard as tuck! so who is leading by example?
DELEDIO FOR CAPTAIN ASAP!
