It's a good group. Main thing is they are players who are unlikely to be pushed out. More will come along. You would think Curnow, Weitering, Walsh etc may come into it. Hard to say without seeing training.

I go early, in 2 years time Willo will be in that group

Be very surprised if Arr0w isn't pushing for a place by 2020.

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Be very surprised if Arr0w isn't pushing for a place by 2020.

Why so long?

 

[LanceRomance]

Unfortunately, I think this needs to be assessed again in response to Docherty knee.

Plowman goes back in methinks

 

[Arr0w]

Leave it as is, he will still lead and drive the group

 

[LanceRomance]

Leave it as is, he will still lead and drive the group

I think the intention was to have him as an on field leader.

Who steps up in the backline?

 

[thylacine60]

wonder if we will still be going with co-skippers?

 

[ESKIE]

He hasn’t carked it

 

[thylacine60]

he can't be co-captain without playing

 

[ESKIE]

he can't be co-captain without playing

Why not .. Can’t demote him either...

He can still make a leadership contribution from the sidelines like this year

 

[thylacine60]

no - not as co-captain - makes no sense - need to give it to someone else - simmo ...........

 

[Mr_Plow]

no - not as co-captain - makes no sense - need to give it to someone else - simmo ...........

Would not be right to just take it off him now.

 

[thylacine60]

he'll step back - you watch - nothing surer........

 

[Mr_Plow]

he'll step back - you watch - nothing surer........

If he does so of his own accord, no worries.

 

[ferrisb]

Cripps is the perfect on-field leader.

Doc is the perfect off-field leader.

Simples.

 

[thylacine60]

that won't fly, mcfly......

 

[ferrisb]

that won't fly, mcfly......

A well-liked, intelligent captain of a young team does his knee and spends the whole year on the sidelines. That'll never fly.

Nek minnut Dogs win their first flag in 108 billion years.

 

[thylacine60]

hey fair point - did he captain from off-field? footscray had no captain on the ground? boyd?

 

[thylacine60]

I think the intention was to have him as an on field leader.

yep

 

[thylacine60]

Who steps up in the backline?

willo, newman, macreadie, schumacher........
