Rance was captain last year, I'm assuming there's some darts and a board with pictures on it involved.

It's a joke
why bother even making a captain

I heard Gary Lyon call it a “legacy” selection. More of a reward for being an 8 time AA I think

This is exactly it & its a good move in my mind. Why does a captain have to be a club captain?

I can see why people get worked up over players getting picked or not but the captain & vc shouldn't matter. Just a reward to players who have excelled over a number of years. I like it.

He shouldn't have been in the team in the first place. Absolute joke.

Why not? Had the best GPG record of any elite forward.

Yep. Andrew McLeod was also AA captain if I remember correctly despite not being club captain. Probably many others too

There have been but to the best of my knowledge Buddy has never even been a part of any leadership group at the Hawks or Swans.

Says a lot about him really IMO.

I love watching him play, I appreciate that he doesn't get himself in the media etc but he obviously isn't a great leader in any capacity, strange really.

Na not salty about that at all. I just don't think he should have been picked.

Missed 4 games, and is more of a CHF opposed to the 3 above him.

I think Jack is a lock, averaged 3 goals, 14.2 disposals, 6.2 marks and 2.5 tackles per game.
Brown was great but just a tad shy of the other two with 2.8 gls, 11.2 disp, 4.5 marks and 1.1 tackles per game.
The other two are very close:
Buddy: 3.2 gls, 15.6 disp, 6.9 marks & 2.1 tackles.
Tomahawk: 2.9 gls, 15.7 disp, 7.3 marks & 1.9 tackles.

There is the answer, the other 3 are FF's.
