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.
Collingwood
2024 Captain: Darcy Moore
2024 Leadership Group: Jeremy Howe (vc), Brayden Maynard (vc), Isaac Quaynor (vc)
Despite questions over his selection status last season, Moore remains a sure chance to be retained as captain of Collingwood for 2025.
The All-Australian will likely still have support from all of, or at least most of, fellow backmen Jeremy Howe, Brayden Maynard and Isaac Quaynor.
Star recruit Dan Houston could slot into a leadership role after holding down similar duties with Port Adelaide, while a spot for Nick Daicos could be up for grabs for 2025.
