Captain Cotchin
« on: August 03, 2011, 10:39:12 AM »
Young gun midfielder Trent Cotchin will captain Richmond in Sunday’s Round 20 clash with the West Coast Eagles at Subiaco in the absence of regular skipper, Chris Newman, who has been sidelined with a knee injury.

It will be the second time Cotchin has captained the Tigers.

I think Newman should step down next year and for the longivity of the club Cotchin needs to be appointed. We now need to appoint a 10+ year Captain of the club instead of 3-5 year Captains as has been our trend in the past. I can't remember our last Captain that served more than 5 years....I am sure the stats people on the forum will assist.. :thumbsup

When new players come into our club they need to look at our Captain and say, I want to be like hinm, I want to train like him, I want to lead like him. Look at what Judd has done since walking in the door at the Blues. Players like Murphy were in awe of the way he goes about his his business from the time he leaves his house for training until after a game. The Blues have lifted another 40-60% since Judd arrived.

good to see cotch lead the team out, hopefully this ushers in a NEW era, where disgraceful performances are no longer lauded & accepted amongst the playing group. id like to see the leadership group spilt over summer with a couple of suprises in store. EG

Cotch captain
Rance vice captain

That is all, no namby pamby leadership group to placate those poor darlings that couldnt get a gig. As MJ once said..THIS IS IT :gotigers

Agree with the Cotchin and Rance leadership going forward.
