Doc on RSN Breakfast Club last Thursday

[Lods]

It may also explain why some draftees come in and average 20ods touches from game one but then fizzle out (Daniel rich, Rhys Palmer etc) - if their coaches are just saying - do what you did at tac level and just hunt the footy. Whereas it sounds like bolts has our kids trying to run the right “patterns” and ensure they are always in the right position for the team.  Less glamorous in the stat sheet, but hopefully will benefit them long term???

Yep
...and the point Docherty was making was that it takes a little while to learn those patterns.

Doc is a gun and it's great to have 2 quality candidates.... but you'd have to be high to go past Cripps.

Just my opinion.

Maybe we have 3......
There's been much said about Weiters as future captain material.
Lots of it was on here in fact. Remember ?

Noticed Weiters doing a lot of directing in the NBs game but I would think he'd be a tidy distance beind Cripps and the Doc for the gig atm.

On game day Fisher is quite impressive, in another year or two he could be the real deal.

I think this is also the problem with the Cripps captaincy option, for me it's a year or two too early, he is still learning and developing his own game.

Docherty on the other hand has his game nailed down.

If it's not going to be Doc next season, I wouldn't at all be surprised to see Murphy get one more year! Because to me the other younger options are still another year or two away from being ready!

Interesting LP. I used to think that about Cripps but after seeing him this year in action as stand in Captain, think he is ready to go.
