Got to lead on field first, helps, is dangerous not leading as yet, anywhere thus far.
Still not his thing IMO. Lots of great players are not captains, but great leaders.
How do you know? Have you been on the field with him this year Angry?
I think you have to take it as read that if the captain says a player is showing leadership on the field then he is.
Anyway, IMO most here are missing the point. The article isn't about making Carney captain. It's just a way of talking him up, changing public perception about him, letting him know he's on track and giving him a confidence boost. That sort of stuff
It's all about getting the cockiness back in Carney AFAIC because it's lacking and it's one of his biggest assests.
Fuggen smart man that Gallen.
