3 years is a long time for any player and so much can change in that time - especially when they are getting close to their 30s.

I think stevo will be one player who will enjoy having more developed talent around him. I dont think stevo is a player who is a star in his own right- but could be a piece of a star midfield group.

He is one of those players whose usefulness increases exponentionally when surrounded by other good players, whereas some players remain the same whether or not this is so.

With the massive development of carrots, simpson, walker, murphy this year and jackson, blackwell and benctick to some extent - stevo may have the good players around him he needs to reach his heights.

In respect of making stevo captain, from purely my position, i dont think stevo is the guy. For one, he doesn't go near to putting his body on the line to the extent simmo does, he also can be quite critical of others on the field - ie. telling someone off for missing a goal when he is quite often doing the same.

Simmo still has my vote, but i accept only those in the inner sanctum would know.

He turns 28 in January.....so injury free he should be fine at 31; looking at Buckley and Kouta and Hird and Harvey etc who have gone way beyond that age.
