Course you would, that's how distant you are with what really happens at the level!!!!!

Turkish Roll!!!!!
How many other teams would Geary be getting a game at? Tries hard, but skills are ordinary, which I feel has had a trickle down effect on the rest of our club the passed 2 seasons.

Name an AFL captain in recent memory that Geary is a better player than. I’ll wait.
Easy, and a premiership captain at that: Maxwell!!!!!

Well we are at it, Geary would play at West Coast, Collingwood and Richmond, so automatic selection at most if not all clubs!!!!!!

Highly rated in the AFL!!!!!
As much as I dislike Maxwell, and think he wasn’t anything special, he was a better and much more effective player than Geary.

Geary wouldn’t even get a look in at half the sides in the AFL, but I’m not surprised someone who rates Longer so highly would disagree :wink:

Entitled to your opinion, not shared!!!!! ;)

We will be great again once Billy is back playing!!!!!

Geary didn't make himself captain.The playing group & the club as a whole did.I dont think Geary is a great captain but I do give credit where credits due.If I was at war & I wanted someone to watch my back I would pick Jarryn Geary even though he might not be the most talented soldier you would know whatever it took he would be there for you. He has given the best he can do but IMO his skill level is barely AFL standard & don't get me wrong this is not a sledge on Jarryn Geary I love his passion for the club but as I said IMO he is not the right man for the job.

Not better than Maxwell. Would not get a game at those clubs. Crazy statement. Most of them would ask ....."who" ?

Geary would still be in the best 22 of plenty of clubs.

Your opinion.You have over estimated Geary's ability big time. Cole was a rising star nominee 2018 and a solid defender is now a premiership player and he can hang his hat on that, so the jury would be out on that one. Geary was a rising star nominee in 2009. Problem for Geary is that he is similar to another footballer whom you overpraise and that is Bill Longer. Neither can kick with any efficiency or penetration and in Bills case , he just cant get a kick. Geary's skills set is not good. He is fit and can run all day apparently but that is not enough. Maxwell was in the Pies best in both grand finals and over 200 games in a strong team. Just remember I didn't initiate this thread to remove him as Captain.

IMHO some people on here are way too hard on you Lazar. You're actually a most reasonable man.

Hey, Bluthy even got to pick which Saudi embassy you'd drop him off at. :wink:

IF Lonie was getting a game each week he would make a valuable member of the leadership group. He shows a good understanding of the game and awareness of those around him

Carlisle strikes me as a good potential leader as well - seems to have matured a lot since his earlier indiscretions and is well respected.

Well then the playing group have NFI & the decision should be taken out of their hands.

SL’s review determined there’s a massive leadership void on the field & on the training track. Need a guy that not only leads by example on the track but also demands & receives respect.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Hanners leads us out in r1 to be honest.
