She's 22 while Arnell's 30 so she has the potential to be our captain for many years.
The thing is, we really don't know about the longevity of the women compared to the men.
I suspect many will play well into their thirties.
I suspect you're right about setting up Davey. There's a good article about our AFLW leadership in the Age today and one sentence that stood out was:
Quote:Arnell said she was rapt to move into the mentoring role while Davey and Hosking are in their early 20s.
I don't want to derail this thread but I wonder if Marc Murphy will take on a similar role.

If you are going to stand down from captain, you don't step down into vice captaincy.
I think its basically a succession plan with the new breed taking over from the old head.

Congratulations to Bri, Lauren, and Sarah. I've no doubt the mix of youth and seniority will optimize the development of our girls.
Go Blues

I think a certain ACL injury may have prevented that from occurring at least this season...

If only our blokes had as much dedication as our AFLW captain.
Back at training....

Exactly what Doc did...
Re: New skipper - northernblue - 02-16-2018
WOW !!!
Imagine if they breed, we’ll have three of them at training ! ????????
Re: New skipper - kruddler - 03-29-2018
So bringing up an old thread....has anyone heard anything about Bri Davey leaving?
Last i heard i think it was jumping ship to the pies, or the new start up club North Melbourne (or even Geelong)
Can we trade her to Collingwood for Steph? Captain for captain swap? Seems fair.
For the third year in a row we will have a new captain. :-\

It's early days, so there will always be teething issues, although granted, we seem to have enough of those to freely give to the entire competition.
Re: New skipper - LP - 04-04-2018
Interesting to read Kearney have left he Dogs to join Norp.
The AFLW Draft and Trade rules seem to promote this, last season it was Nicola Stevens joining us, this year Kearney leaves the Dogs after winning a flag.
We just have to get used to this and expect more of it, it's the only way the girls can get decent remuneration under the current terms and conditions.
