I had a discussion the other day about who could become our next captain, would be interesting to see others thoughts.

I think it'll be either Zaharakis or Heppell.
I was thinking because of the way Heppel acts in front of the camera, that he probably isn't the captain type. But he is still very young and could grow into the captain type.Said this elsewhere, but Zaka doesn't strike me as a future captain. Hurley maybe, Heppell's demeanour in front of a camera actually reminds me of a young Jobe.
For some reason I actually agreeHurley.
For some reason I can't see it being Zaka.
I think Heppell is the most likely.
Elaborate.
It's honestly just a gut feeling, really.
Perhaps more accurately, if it came down to a choice between Heppell and Zaka, I'd see Heppell as being more likely, as IMO he speaks better and in general, has that intangible quality that just screams 'leader'. I'm not sure if Zaka has that to the same degree.
I could also see any of Carlisle, Hurley or even (and this is probably a little left-field) Myers being considered.
