Jarryn Geary

Probably the most balanced of all the candidates. Geary isย incredibly well respected internally and is also well liked amongst the playing group. He's beginnings started out as a rookie and has stuck with the club through thickย and thin,ย through theirย goldenย era a few years back and the most recentย run of poor seasons.

There is word within the Saints, that he has the ability to adapt toย new things. He can play a variety of roles and is one of the mostย well-rounded players at the club.

There is a suggestion that he tries to do too much whenย captain andย weย witnessed that last season. But to get those few games, trialling his new role is crucial and every captain has their initiation period.

There still remains a question over whether he can remain in their bestย 22 and that might be a reason whyย St Kildaย may be reluctant to pick him asย the new captain.
