In January, the club announced Brad Green as captain, taking over the reins from the recently retired James McDonald. Aaron Davey, Brent Moloney and Jared Rivers were named vice captains while youngsters Nathan Jones and Jack Grimes were promoted to the leadership group.[1] Dean Bailey was re-appointed coach, but was sacked after a near-record 186-point loss to Geelong in Round 19.[2]
