Crocherty?
Dripps?
Crippocherty?
Cripperty?
Dochepps?
Dopps?

Important step in our road back to AFL relevancy.
No more will the Carlton captain be intimidated.
The hunted becomes the hunter !!

great point - always felt murph was a bit cap in hand when it came to other leaders.......

I like it.

Is Simmo VC? Or do we have dual-VCs?

simmo is vc as long as the ball is on the left side of the ground.........

Success begins with leadership.

Sam and Pat could not be separated, a good problem to have. I applaud the choice to go with these two.

May they raise 17 high up in the air.

Choosing between Patrick Cripps and Sam Docherty would of been a nightmare, this is only time I can approve dual captains because they both demand and ooze captain material.

2018 was outstanding from Patty Cripps, just stoop up in Murph's absent throughout the year and the way he carried the team on his own back and is a perfect example of leading in front.

2016 to 2017 Sam Docherty was outstanding, his is our backline general and was sorely missed this year. I remember countless times in 2017 where he would go back into the flight of the ball and put his body on the line in close game.

Congrats to bother Sam Docherty and Patrick Cripps, can't wait to see them lead the young group next year.

I'm not a huge fan of two leaders in one organization, two bulls in a paddock and all that.
I mean is there such a thing as two Prime ministers at the same time? It just doesnt wo...


..oh wait

Signals movement into a new Carlton era. Loved watching Doc on the sidelines this year. Seems a natural. Crippa is just, well, Crippa. Bloody beast. Leadership is a collective in this era anyway and acknowledges the distinctly different styles of both lads. Might even help with recruitment this weekend!

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Yeah but who does the coin toss

Alternating.

2 guys that absolutely bleed for this mighty club now leading it into a new era, this is just fantastic and it shows they have both commited even more to obtaining success for this great club once again.

 

[BlueVision]

Congratulations guys.

Whilst it flies in the face of our clubs tradition, I also see this as a statement that this group is going to forge its own tradition.

 

[Blue Ratts]

Thought cripps would make a good captain back in 2014: https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/posts/32577233/, still think that's the case now. Doc is an awesome choice as well.

10 cents each way or just putting in your 2 bob. Anyways congrats to both Cripps and Doc both leading us to #17

 

[PrinceCharles]

Here here...it’s stupid.

Again, no logic put forward. Let me guess, you're a 'traditionalist'?

 

[Bearded Carpenter]

Has this been mentioned?

Cripps and Doc are captains 15 and 16 left living in chronological order.

Perfectly set up to get us number 17.

I like number mysteries.
