David Armitage

St Kilda are one of very few clubs that have opted not to have a vice-captain, andย just likeย with Steven this year, David Armitage captained the side in a few games in 2015 and has to be considered as an option.

Form wise, this year hasn't been a great one for the midfielder who thrived in 2015. Despite that drop in form his style of play very much spells out captaincy material.

He is one of the club's most courageous players, always going in head first and leading by example out on the field. A tough nut on it, Armitage is a softy off theย field. What I mean by that,ย he is a very likable person around the club and in the media.

With a warm and open personality,ย its no wonder he isย a teammates best friend. If he were to become captain, he would be one that is very publicย and very likable among the AFL community.
