Would you want that from a manager?
Captains need to know how to get the best out of players. Going off at people isnt the right method for everyone.

I agree with Clarky449 - However leadership can be learnt whilst on the job. Not sure Roo was the perfect leader either when he first got the job, he's developed beautifully into the role. I recall Nathan Buckley was very critical of team mates and learnt that not everyone responds the same way to a bake. He became arguably collingwood's best captain. I am confident that BJ can become this type of player and take his game to another level again if he was amde captain.shmic_s wrote:I agree. Teams need leadership on the field even more these days.

He can be quite emotional out on the field. Wears his heart on his sleeve, which may count against him. But nothing wrong with giving the odd team mate a bake if they do something wrong.
Any way, hes a gun player. Easily the best utility going around. And in the top 3 players in the league so far this season.

Or that he should not play with so much passion re when he yelled at Goose a few years ago out of the field.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing however for all the astute judges out there that wrote him off...morons
