I think Lids still has aspirations to become Captain but I think he is more introspective and less confident motivating those around him than Cotchin. I feel that Cotch sees he is reliant on thise around him to improve and perform himself, whereas Lids is a standout individual performer who inspires those around him. Lids would likely lead similarly to Judd, Cotch would lead similarly to a Cousins.
To me, we have had far too many 'distant leaders/star' at the club and we need a captain going forward whose first priority is finding the best methods to make those around him perform. Instilling the idea that the team needs to work for each other foremost.
I think Cotch had that mentality every early on but with the tutorage of Cousins he now had the methods, tools and direction to become the typr of leader we desperately need.
First he has to earn it though...
