    There's more to being captain than merly being hard at the ball in any case.
    Cement head. Gah, they're just jealous. What a final game in 2010 he played. Made our senior list look like plodders in that game. Go Wardy

    I'd pick him before Cross and Boyd. Seriously

    Re: Our next captain?

    Did anyone hear what Doug Hawkins had to say on this topic on SEN yesterday? Heard he was coming on but I had to go out. Did I miss any pearls of wisdom?

    Re: Our next captain?

    Noticed on the bulldogs website - Boyd and Cross are the front men. Capt and Vice?

    Yep, they appear to be on everything - Boyd is the "Bulldoze the Debt Ambassador" and both are on the membership card.

    Re: Our next captain?

    Just had a look at the website. I'm willing to wait to see how it looks in a month or so before I look at it as a sign of who will captain the club, considering a decision is supposed to be at least two months away.

    Thinking about our coaching staff going to the marketing team in December, or maybe November (it takes a little bit of forward planning to determine website content) and telling them to put Boyd and Cross up front because they're going to be the one and two seems a bit strange to me.

    Just a thought, I could be full of BS .

    Thanks dfa4pm - interesting nickname? I wonder does it refer to his intellectual ability or the fact that he is hard at the ball on the footy field?

    He may be dumb but he leads well on the field. I know that Bob Murphy thinks very highly of him.
    But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

    Lack of intellectual prowess has never been a barrier to a long and successful football career...
