Cripps on the couch

[Lods]

If Docherty gets it over Cripps it will only be a matter of time before its another Mitchell/Hodge situation especially if we are not doing well.......the media/supporters will see Cripps as the spiritual on field leader like Hodge was and want the change.....

See I don't get that....and it it just a matter of opinion

Cripps is there at the moment
Docherty is on the bench.
Hard to make a judgement.

I reckon Docherty is just the type of captain we need.
A grade player, but also a coach in waiting.
Let Cripps concentrate on being a superstar.

The reality is though, that this decision will be made a lot closer to the action, and the players and coaches who know better than we do will make that choice.
I'll be happy with that.
