That's right MBB. I was thinking that we had two VCs but it was just Simpson.
It looks like just one change; Thomas in for Walks. If that's the case, Thomas mustn't be cooked ...

Unless he has a significant physical turnaround leadership is all Daisy has to offer, but he is the right person for the job!

No, 100% sure it was just Simmo as VC. I recall vividly the video on CFC media where they announced Murph as Capt and Simmo as VC. Simmo gave a speech about how thrilled he was to lead the club with Murph. Its also in The Journey.

Gibbs and Jamison were vice-captains in 2015. Simmo did replace Gibbs, but in 2016.

Ahh ok cool, I thought I'd seen him referred to as the VC in some of the trade articles last year...was probably the Herald Sun though :-\
Would still be cool though to see Doc as VC with Simmo this year.

Nailed that one Kruddler
Nice to see Dennis rewarded for his persistence and efforts. His role with the AFLW team suggests that he possesses both leadership ability and footy nous.

I like Armfield in the leadership group. Says to the younger blokes, 'look this is how you go about your business both at the Club and away from the Club'. Very important with so many young impressionable kids on the list IMO. Simon White seems someone similar, well from the outside looking in anyway. Having a chunk of those leadership members finishing top 5 in the B&F is important. Now for the younger chaps to come along and not only challenge the senior guys, but take the reins from them.
