Hall to step down from captaincy

[Push The Limits]

I'm sorry to see Bazza not want to be a co-captain as he is as good a leader for the younger players as Kirk.

However the best news from this story is that Ben Matthews is standing down from the leadership group "due to family committments"

What a load of you know what!!! He is simply not up to being in the leadership and hopefully will struggle to get a game next season.

We have smarter and better younger options in the group to take his place.

Captain's goal and all that, he really wasn't a captain's lemonade.

The "old I want to spend more time with the family" excuse. It's the usual cop out by players when they know their time is up. With a year on his contract captain of the 2's in 2008 would be a great way to bow out Benny. Then you could POQ to spend the time in the arvo with the kids kicking a footy or doing the garden, ironing or washing the windows. Anything from the wife's job list from 1-10.

And Hall wants to spend more time with his labrador.

There has been some discussion of the replacement at our house this evening, and we came to the consensus that we would like Nick Davis to be captain.

Or at the very least he could replace Mathews in the leadership group. At least Nick knows how to run towards the goals to which we are kicking.

Leave Benny alone.
Benny is our workhorse. After he's gone, all you geezers will say, "if only Benny was there, he would have stopped that winning grand final goal." His job is the STOP THE BALL from going into the opposition's forward line. He does his job well. Ok, he can't kick for @@@@, and has the odd panic attack, but he does his appointed job well. Don't worry Benny bashers - when it happens I'll find the threads and remind you of your words.

Swantastic ... I fixed your spelling and grammar.
