Several AFL clubs will be considering captaincy changes for the 2025 season, with new leaders banging on the door and the need for fresh voices potentially of interest for the coming year.
More than half of the competition should see their same leaders continue their posts from 2024, with the supporting groups underneath them the more likely area for change.
With captaincy roles either set for change, under threat or locked in for 2025, we look at who will likely lead each AFL team and the potential incoming leadership grouo additions.
St Kilda
2024 Captain: Jack Steele
2024 Leadership Group: Callum Wilkie (vc), Rowan Marshall, Seb Ross, Jack Sinclair
The Saints could look to partner captain Jack Steele atop their leadership group for 2025, with defender Callum Wilkie the obvious option should they make the change to shared skippers.
That could see one, or both, of Rowan Marshall and Jack Sinclair promoted to vice-captaincy duties, with the likes of Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera and Marcus Windhager then banging on the door for maiden leadership group roles.
