I hope we don't leave the captaincy with Murphy or go with Docherty next year. They seem like good players and nice blokes but no offense they don't seem like natural leaders to me. This guy is just that.

How does Cripps compare to the Murphy Mic'd Up?
Re: Next Captain - PaulP - 05-04-2018
I've watched that twice, and whilst he seems like a nice kid, that schtick is borderline irritating.
Maybe I'm just not cut out for team sports.

WTF was that...
)Sounds like me at Dapto Leagues Club on a Friday night. ;D
That was a bit of fun but it doesn't tell us a lot other than he seems a friendly bloke and does seem to be controlling events at times.
I'd like to hear him in the serious rough and tumble of a game... but that's not likely.
Re: Next Captain - LP - 05-04-2018
If the club want fans to make the judgment they post Murphy Mic'd p and Docherty Mic'd Up!
If they don't want to be inclusive of us they won't!

Neil Finn would have been the #2 choice

Watch the video of Docherty.
He's such an impressive bloke.
Re: Next Captain - deags - 07-10-2018
Cripps' defensive efforts of late have worried me in terms of him being next captain.
He gives the appearance, and i deliberately put it that way as I have no idea what is going on in his mind, of someone who watches his opponent run past while he jogs into the backline. Seen it quite a few times. He is much better defensively when in close quarters.

Yep, I still have Doch as my favorite to replace Murphy.
Cripps is impressive, for his age, but he's got some glaring issues that might make him too easily negated.
I really like Fisher, in another year or two I can see Docherty ©, Fisher (VC), it's not about influence and results but about Fisher's effort and commitment.

Is he just resigned to not being able to keep up?
Even so, that is probably a negative in the captaincy stakes whether it is deliberate or not!
