      I agree with most of you in that Morris, Cooney and Murphy are the 3 I'd be happy for it to come from.

      If I absolutely had to pick 1 - I'd be happy with Bob Murphy, I think he brings the full package. But would be rapt with Morris and Coons.

        I'd be disappointed with either and I think it would make a poor statement to the playing group.

          I think the playing group has a big say in who is made captain, don't they?

            No real surprise there. You'd imagine the next captain will come from the current leadership group - no offence to Gia, I don't mind him as a player but I would not want to see him as our next captain. Murph, Coons or Morris from the leadership group for mine.

              Cooney. Please.

                        Have a Sydney type leadership structure. Morris captain of defence, Boyd captain of the mids and Gia captain of the forwards (for example). I wouldn't say we've got one true leader (though Mossis would have a great case) so spread the load.

                          As a senior player, no man more typifies the Bulldog spirit than Daniel Cross. Would have to work on PR but he'd make a great leader on and off the field. Trains down the house, always got time for fans and an honest love of the club.

                            While I think that system has merit I am not all that excited by who you have chosen in the roles.

                              Neither was I. I think they're the most likely three though

                                How about Griffen as captain?
                                B&F under the belt.
                                Plays an inspiring and slashing brand of football.

                                Turned down a big offer from the bombers to stay.

                                Just a thought.
