The Gold Coast Suns have announced their new leadership group for season 2016.
As expected, Gary Ablett has remained captain, but he will be joined by youngsters Tom Lynch, Steven May and Dion Prestia as the club's vice captains.
Michael Rischitelli, Nick Malceski, Jarrod Harbrow, Matt Rosa, David Swallow and Jaeger O'Meara round out the leadership group.
โWeโre building a strong culture of leadership and accountability on and off the field and the players have not only embraced that strong focus but are leading it," coach Rodney Eade said.
โEveryone involved in the club is acutely aware of the responsibility we all have to the Gold Coast community, the AFL and our fans to perform both on and off the field. We know what is expected of us and we make no exceptions in holding each other to account.
โLast year was a difficult year for our football club, but we believe it will be one of the most defining in our history. Only time will tell how important the year was for our growth, but we believe we have taken some significant steps forward and put the right measures in place for sustained success.โ
