Re: Leadership Group 2022
JJ & Hunter the two glaring omissions.
Poor Wally but that's understandable

I think JJ's position in the side may be tenuous this season, but Hunter a lock. Do you think it's just a matter of spreading the experience?

Or is it still a legacy of a certain ill advised trip bein the wheel?
Re: Leadership Group 2022
Great to see Naughton in the leadership group.

Video here on announcement.
Re: Leadership Group 2022
I find it strange that Macrae goes from a 8yr career never being in the leadership to VC…. I would’ve thought that if he showed leadership qualities he would’ve been groomed for this position given his standing as a top 3 player for the last 5-6 years.
Maybe he was a slow developer?…. Or never wanted part of it until now and we have no other options??

After Hunters 2020 screw ups doubt we'll see him in the leadership group for some time to come. Other than that, love todays announcements.
Makes me think that CD and JM have both put pen to paper, or at least, are about to.

I just heard an audio grab from Jack Macrae. He mentioned tough times he's faced over the passed 18 months and being at the footy club has really helped. Maybe that has something to do with it?

I'd add Dunkley and Treloar to that as well and we know Keath is leading the back line.
It's a new look group though and an indication of where the club is at. Outside of Duryea the others are just a slight surprise to me.
We certainly don't lack depth in the leadership at the club.
Re: Leadership Group 2022
Previously players would vote in the leadership group. Is this still the case?
This group and even last years 2 man group seem coach driven, rather than player driven.
Re: Leadership Group 2022
Bevo looks like Merv Hughes' and Tony Hawk's love child in this video!

Happy for Jack, might be just the tonic for him to supplement the brilliance he already brings.

Actually Dunks is an interesting omission.

You can watch him in the link above.
I think it is great Jacko is in the leadership group. He really leads by example and as Bevo says in the announcement, Jacko always wants to win.

I don't think so. He wanted to leave us the previous year so too bad. Let him prove he is a club man.
