MELBOURNE coach Mark Neeld has all but confirmed the captaincy pairing of Jack Trengove and Jack Grimes will remain next season.
Although a voting system will again determine the leadership group and the captaincy, Neeld said major change at the top was not coming.
"The captains won't change. Neither of them even deserve to have that discussion," Neeld said.
"I couldn't speak more highly of them. They are on their way to being really good captains."

All spots in the leadership group will be thrown open after the club's nine-day Northern Territory training camp, starting on December 6.
In effect, the camp will be a final audition for key spots in the group, which underwent a massive transformation when Neeld arrived at the end of the 2011 season.
The now-retired Brad Green, Aaron Davey, Jared Rivers and Brent Moloney were all dumped after a vote.
Tellingly, both Rivers and Moloney walked out under free agency a year after their snub.
The group consists of Trengove, Grimes, James Frawley, Mitch Clark, Clint Bartram, Mark Jamar, Nathan Jones and Colin Garland and was formed based on "actions and behaviour".
"We will continue with the leadership group in its current form until the end of the pre-season camp. There will be nominations and then a voting system," Neeld said.

Neeld said the work of Trengove and Grimes on-field was "just the tip of the iceberg".
"They've had some pretty big issues off the field to work through for a couple of young kids," Neeld said.
