I don't think it's hyperbole to say that the 2016 flag is the most remarkable flag the league has seen, for multiple reasons, but not least of which what happened at the end of 2014. The Club was a laughing stock, devoid of direction and leadership. Somehow out of that mess three men - Gordon, Beveridge and Murphy - guided the Club to the ultimate success two years later.
Bob with his footy mythology, humour and sensitivity was the perfect captain at this time and the perfect compliment to Bevo. It might sound harsh on Bont's prospects but there's actually no place he could lead the side that would eclipse (in my eyes) the leadership that Bob gave the club at that critical time. No amount of games captained, personal accolades or even flags will change my mind.
Bont to VC though, he's got Granty covered.
Bob didn't even Captain though, Wood did.
But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.
