Who is the next captain of Collingwood? By 2021-01-19T15:12+11:00 Collingwood has only had six captains since 1987, with their leaders often serving long and successful stints at the helm. Those six include Scott Burns, who only served in the role for a year in 2008 as the transitional leader between Nathan Buckley (1999-2007) and Nick Maxwell (2009-2013). Scott Pendlebury has skippered the club since 2014 and despite now being 33, hasn’t shown many signs of slowing down. Nick Dal Santo wants to see Pendlebury play for as long as he possibly can, but wonders when Collingwood begins to work out who their next captain is and is also curious as to who that person might be.
