Murphy to lead again in 2017

[ElwoodBlues1]

My comments about Docherty's size was in relation to Elwood's comments about him being a smaller type ala Murphy, but in his  next post was lauding Hodge as a great Captain (which he is). I was merely pointing out that they are exactly the same height, therefore saying Docherty can't be a good Captain because of his height when he is the same as arguably the best Captain in the game is somewhat contradictory.

You're right though, the best Captain's are the tough ones, but I don't see Docherty being in any ways soft. He's got some chutzpah.

Docherty may be the same height but he isnt street tough enough like Hodge or able to give the cover that skillful smaller players need.....Voss was 183cm and even smaller but was like a Pit Bull out on the ground.
Hard not to be inspired when you see how Voss played the game....I like Docherty as a leader but his skillset as a leader is different to the Hodge/Voss skillset and we need some of the latter IMO....
