In my humble opinion, "Leadership" is a term that covers a whole spectrum of acts and attitudes. Leading by example is the most effective, and admirable type of leadership (IMHO) Jarryn Geary has, to my way of thinking, in these past four days displayed remarkable levels of maturity and leadership during this unfortunate episode between Carlton and ourselves.
Firstly, he was first to get into Murphy after that players conduct toward an injured Jake Carlisle. This preparedness to act without regard for himself, in defence of a teammate makes a hell of a statement about his courage and loyalty.
Secondly, when the dust had settled, when the blood temperatures had returned to normal, JG contacted Murphy to make the peace and move on.
Now I know all the macho men and such like may see that as a sign of weakness...... I for one DON'T! On the contrary, I see it as showing enough strength of character, to say; " look mate, it got heated, we said stuff, you said stuff, let's get together and sort it out, and move on"
Jarryn Geary has ARRIVED as our captain courageous! A warrior! A leader! Our Skipper!
