Brisbane makes 2023 captaincy announcement

2023-03-01T14:05+11:00

Harris Andrews and Lachie Neale have been announced as Brisbane’s co-captains for the 2023 season.

The duo takeover from Dayne Zorko who recently stepped away after holding the role for five years.

After serving as Zorko’s deputy for five seasons, Andrews was excited to ascend to a higher position.

“To be identified as the co-captain of this football club is really exciting and something that probably hasn’t sunk in yet, I am extremely proud of it when I look down at the names of those that have gone before me,” Andrews said via a statement.

“To feel that I’ve got the trust of the playing group alongside Lachie and the coaching staff, just having that support there is really important.

“To me it gives me confidence to go out and play my game and also instruct the group and make sure we are going really well as a football club.”

Serving as the pair’s deputy is star midfielder Hugh McCluggage who has officially been appointed as a sole vice-captain.

Brisbane kick off their 2023 season with a Round 1 clash against Port Adelaide at the Adelaide Oval on March 18.
