“It is truly an incredible honour to be given the opportunity to lead this team,” Moore said.
“The Collingwood captaincy is significant in its own right but it also holds another layer of significance for my family and I. To follow my father’s journey as captain of the Collingwood Football Club at almost the same stage in his football journey is very special.
“There’s no shortage of strong and up-and-coming leaders in our group, and I look forward to working closely with the individuals that surround me to ensure we all continue to develop as leaders. I am fortunate to be part of a team and wider club that features so many selfless and determined individuals.”
