Next Captain

[Thryleon]

I get the idea that the contest is between Cripps (on field) and Docherty (Off field) and that both of them have the ascendency in both scenarios.

Now we might not all think much of Docherty as a captain, but he plays football in Simpson fashion, is very level headed and has had his fair share of off field trauma that will mean that he will be much more "stable" as a leader.

If Cripps is demanding the captaincy though, his leadership wont diminsh Docherty's and provided they complement each other it will be fine.
