Cotchin's captaincy [merged]

[Stalin]

Your just emotional.

Cotchin stacks up well again Nathan jones. Phil Davis. David Mundy.

Cotchin isn't the issue.

[Diocletian]

Why is Cotch not fit to tie the laces of most other team captains?

Why doesn't Halfstep move him forward?

Did Deledio touch the ball in the first half or only come good after the horse had bolted just like the 2014 EF at the same venue? But hey yeah, let's give him the captaincy instead.

[Stalin]

The game was still alive when lids got 13 touches in one quarter.

Looking for answers in the wrong places ladies

[Diocletian]

Yeah daughter, those 13 possessions really impacted the scoreboard.

Point is the half the flogs who want Cotchin to give up the captaincy, reckon Deledio would do better. Bloke's a gun but he's gone MIA in more big matches over the years than anyone and also can't break a tag for shyte.

Ok, he needs more protection from his teammates but to get your pants pulled down by a second string SANFL player is still an embarrassment of the highest order.

We can try to give him all the excuses in the world but the facts still remains, he struggles with the tag and he let a fringe dweller beat him.

.....but he just had a baby!
Yes but he let a hack pull his pants down when his team needed him to lead them to victory.

Give the captaincy to Rance or Jack & let him just play footy. It's clearly not important enough for the bloke.

Deledio played off half back to stop the rot. I think the mistake is Dimma is too rigid with his structures (he went too tall tonight ffs). Lids is an awesome forward but the ball did not even enter the F50 at all in the 2nd quarter. Same with the EF. Lids played on ball after the 1st to stop the unanswered goals but in both instances it was too late. Dimman needs to get his poo together amd be way more responsive to the game.

Choco: is Cotch better off without captaincy?

FORMER Richmond assistant coach Mark Williams has backed Trent Cotchin to retain the Tigers’ captaincy ... sort of.

Williams was let go by Richmond this year after four years and said Cotchin was a “wonderful leader” but also used the analogy of Gavin Wanganeen giving up the captaincy at Port Adelaide to improve his game and help the team.

However, the Power premiership coach questioned whether there was a Tiger who would be better suited than Cotchin.

“Trent’s a wonderful leader. He really has the ear of all the players,” he said.

“The only analogy I have was when I was at Port, we had Gavin (Wanganeen).

“I’ve discussed this in match committee - I haven’t discussed this with Trent at all - but we decided that Gavin played well, played better and had more influence on results without the responsibility of captaincy.

“Matty Primus got the opportunity and it was a wonderful result.

“I suggested that, as to what happens and who might take over, who would know because there’s no one there who is absolutely perfect.

“You can’t say Jack Riewoldt or Alex Rance would be perfect because they’ve all got something about them that isn’t exactly the perfect captain but then again, who is.”

That was the problem too much Port Adelaide going through their heads instead of thinking the Richmond way

The same knock that has always been on them, it's just not what you see on TV FFS
