In an unexpected turn of events that has sent shockwaves through the Australian Football League (AFL) community, Collingwood Football Club captain Darcy Moore has officially tendered his resignation from the leadership role. The announcement came earlier today at Marvel Stadium, leaving fans and teammates alike stunned by the sudden development.
Moore, who has been a cornerstone of the Magpies’ defense and leadership for years, expressed gratitude to the club and supporters for their unwavering support throughout his tenure. While he confirmed he will continue to play for the club, the decision to step down from the captaincy marks the end of an era for Collingwood’s on-field leadership.
Club officials praised Moore’s contributions, describing him as “an exemplary leader whose commitment to the team and the game will be remembered for years to come.” Fans across social media have reacted with a mix of shock, disappointment, and support, reflecting the deep respect Moore commands across the AFL community.
Collingwood is expected to announce a new captain in the coming weeks as the club prepares for the next AFL season. The transition in leadership comes at a pivotal moment, with the Magpies aiming to build on their recent performances and secure a strong campaign ahead.
