That was what I had suggested pre-season. Name as co-captains, have Dale or Cam (whichever Fitz preferred, he went Dale) do more of the onfield stuff and Wade do more of the off-field stuff. In the end Wade actually played one more than Dale so still would have been solo captain a bit, but would have made it much easier to transition him out after this season.Wade Club captain, Nicho/Dale on field captains.
I did. I thought he would of polled three points whenever they won and still even would of got points most times when they lost. I thought others in our team would of taken points off Nico for him to win. Delighted I was wrong.you thought a guy that finished 10th was going to win player of the year?
To win the Dally m? They stopped betting on it a few years back as the results were always leaked.Sorry if it's been mentioned but anyone know what his odds were pre season?

It's not too bad for club sponsorshipBeing liked gets ya nowhere in this game. We need some right ****s to balance this crap out.
ET = likeable pretty boy = ****all
Gal = hated rough nut = drought breaker
I can't remember any club making that their aim but if I do I'll point them to your post.Truth is no one likes teams that are winning, because sports fans are a jealous bunch. Aim shouldn’t be for other teams to like us, because it means we ain’t winning ****
Absolutely. A few mate's kids are Nicho nuts, even up in QLD my mate's little bloke & his friends all wanna be Nicho.It's not too bad for club sponsorship
and winning over young fans
Some clubs definitely do things to appease the media though.I can't remember any club making that their aim but if I do I'll point them to your post.
I don't want 'bad guys' who ****up off field or even on it necessarily/preferably. But like JWH comes to mind, hated by opposition but great clubman & not a porkchop off field.I think we are short a few mongrels in the team, too many nice guys. Don’t get me wrong it’s good not to be in the news for the wrong reasons but wouldn’t mind a Spencer Lenui type at the club
Good clubs keep the PR dept & football dept properly separated. Its a tough juggle curing cancer & feeding the homeless on Tuesday to keep PR happy and being a ruthless winning RL side.Some clubs definitely do things to appease the media though.
