Greene, 29, is a foundation member of the club and one of its most decorated players.
The two-time All Australian and Club Champion winner was appointed co-captain ahead of the 2022 AFL season – alongside Stephen Coniglio and Josh Kelly – and will take the reins as sole captain in 2023.
Coniglio and Kelly have been appointed vice-captains.
Greene said he was humbled to be appointed captain of the club he joined as an 18-year-old.
“It’s a huge honour,” Greene said.
“I’ve come a long way and it took a long time, but I’ve done a lot of work on my leadership skills.
“As a young kid I was probably nowhere near it and was trying to find my way in AFL footy but I’m in my 12th season now and I’ve been here since the start.
“It’s a massive honour and I’ll be certainly putting all my time and effort into doing the best job I can.”
Greene paid tribute to close friends Coniglio and Kelly, who will support him across the season.
“We’ve got a super strong relationship … we have a really strong bond and I’ll be relying heavily on those two throughout the year,” Greene said.
“I’m looking forward to getting to work with them, alongside the four new players who have been named in the leadership group as well.
“It’s an exciting mix with the four new guys and the three of us who have been here for a while.”
The Giants open their 2023 AFL campaign on Sunday, March 19, against the Adelaide Crows at Giants Stadium.
