Worst Leaders in the AFL!

[PassIt2Carrots]

And as for Malthouse, why don't we just go down the pub on a friday night and pick up the last bloke standing and whack a (coach) next to his name.

Edited for accuracy.

Fair comment, probably get similar results at the moment.

I think a leader needs to be feared ..re: Robbo and Garlett....think thats a leadership group issue where a strong leader also needs some strong deputies to back him up and
you cant get on with everyone but maybe one of your deputies gets on with some players that you dont and can impart the message better..

Agree with Elwood. There is really no point making this discussion scientific it's pretty simple and with all due respect to Murph but going out with him as your captain is a guarantee of being laughed at. He doesn't strike fear into anyone let alone his opponents and he doesn't making anyone stand taller. He is no leader of men plain and simple he is just the popular kid at school that gets made captain.

If he could stay on the park for more than 30 seconds, Krooz would be well worth a look as Captain.

He would set a good example in terms of work rate for sure. You would need Simo as vice, as Krooz would only play a few games per season. Maybe a brain transplant with Murph and Krooz might work. ;D

Forget captain, forget him doing anything other than getting himself right, SpecialK is the missing piece of the puzzle. When he is fit and playing we have at least a 5 goal swing in our favour as a team!

I reckon that might have been the long term plan when we first drafted him...Big Nick, Fitzy, Sticks...having a big bloke as your skipper has worked for us.
Pity he couldnt stay on the park and develop as a player and as a leader...

I think you're right EB.

I'm an admirer of Kreuzer but we are thinking of naming a bloke nicknamed "Humphrey" as in B Bear, the captain?

Especially remembering how he got that name - he never says anything.

I thought the exact same thing a few moments ago. Then I remember what I have seen from him on the field blocking and knocking other small mids around at a stoppage. How much more does he have to say, than try this once in a while. The other one about bears in the woods. "Yes they do".
