A win win trade. Adelaide got Tommy Lynch and we got Jack N. Reliable by hand or foot, sneaks the odd goal, has a cool head and makes good decisions. A real BP. Love the guy and what he brings, week in, week out. An underrated accumulator, who keeps racking up the possessions. If he was the next skipper, I wouldn't be unhappy, although Seb may have something to say about that. Congrats, Jack.
Yes congrats to Jill.
Don't know if they still do, last season Jack Newnes lived in the same house with Seb Ross and Seb's partner.
They both seem very serious young men. I love listening to any of Seb's interviews, he's a very articulate young man, steers away from cliche responses. Very reflective and expansive with his answers to questions.
I bet Seb's partner has a job getting the conversation at the dinner table away from footy from those two committed young men.
Like you WW, I think it's between those two as our next captain, escpecially if they continue on with the leadership trajectory they are showing plus their upward trend in their footy prowess.
I'd be happy with either to be Saints captain, notwithstanding their footy/leadership skills, I do have a liking for blonde males
