l seen girls play harder so l shouldn't even be comparing the girls to them.

Correct. Most women I know who play footy would be insulted to be compared to that rabble
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

He was a much better player without all the weight of being a captain.

No our lack of leadership is a huge issue has been for a fair period of time.

Been saying it for a LONG TIME.

Rance for captain. Even Jack would do a better job, guaranteed.


Now wait for the apologists to come along and defend Cotchin. The kind of blokes who get stuck into me for saying I think Cotchin is a terrible captain...

Would agree Rance or Jack
Making Rance Captain might be a good reason he would go on
in 2016

Good to see you have been reading my posts.

 :lol


I'd also throw Rance out as an option but I don't think it is a position he covets so I am not sure he'd make a good captain

Might help keep Rance at the club.

Can someone make the suggestion to Cotch?

 :cheers
Yeah we're already going to vote for him mate, you don't need to keep selling it.....

He seemed like the right choice at the time but one has to wonder what's going on with him. Looks more of a soldier type than the superstar we were all told he would be.

He doesn't have the toughness for it. If you want to be a strong captain you need MONGREL. Look at Hodge. In fact look at Hawthorn. Hodge, Lewis or Mitchell could all captain that side comfortably. They're all mongrels and tough as nails.

Cotchin should not be captain. He clearly struggles under the weight of it and despite getting annoyed out on the field he doesn't have the killer instinct that makes him want to instigate the kind of behavior we often see him responding to.

Rance for me. He's starting to show a bit of mongrel lately. Probably because he's so over the club...
