Re: Demon targets pile extra pressure on coach Simon Goodwin

MAX GAWN will lead Melbourne in 2020 after being voted in as the Demons' sole captain, with the club going down the unusual path of abolishing the notion of an official leadership group.

Gawn, 28, has been promoted from a position in the leadership group to the role of skipper, and will take over from the co-captains of the last three seasons, Jack Viney and Nathan Jones.

Instead of heading up a leadership team, Gawn will be supported by just vice-captain Viney in the streamlined group, refined to reflect where the list was at.

So he's got a "captain to look after the vice" as my old cricket vice captain used to refer to himself.

They have gone real old school.

Refined to reflect where the list is at is an interesting comment...

Do we interpret that as no other leaders in the group?

If a team only has 2 leaders in captain and VC , I will interpret that as a mixed bag of senior players or lack of leaders who are not respected unanimously liked by their peers. Its a patchwork of personalities. Thats what happens when you discard your senior players.
Melbourne are going NOwhere close to the final . I hope they finish 9th just to keep the flawed hOpe


Articles hints at some Of the different groups at Melbourne
I’m not going to bother commenting on any more players . Just watch them fall
Over themselves and by round 6 they will realise another wasted season ...

Max gawn took 6 Seasons to get his act together .... lucky to still be there after the 3rd.but good on him for having all this success

I hope Stefan Martin wins a premiership sooner or later

Clayton Oliver would be a prime trade target to entice to come to a club and regularly play finals

Pretty happy for the Dees to conclude a pre-season feeling good about themselves.
