Jack Steven
In terms of form and the type of playerย he is, Steven is a no-brainer for a role as captain. Being the team's best player andย all, you gain a sense of leadership automatically and I wouldn'tย be surprised ifย its heย whoย gets the gig next season.
It's been a massive year for the midfielder, who was added toย the leadership group at the beginning of the season. He's already stood in as captainย this season, handling the reigns back in round 12ย against Carlton. Steven starred, kicking three goals andย amassing 25 possessions as the Saints ran out 32 point winners.
Aย bold and inspiring player that drags others with him, there's a certain type of dynamism about the way he plays that fits withย where the team wants to go.
On the other hand,ย he doesn't naturally possess leadership skills andย he isn't the biggest talker out on the field.ย However, Riewoldtย shoes are very big to fill, soย maybe he wouldย gain those skills over time which makes pickingย him as the new captain aย risky move but one that is sure to pay off inย the years to come.
