This week we interview vice captain Michael Captain about his background.
Number: 8
Position: Centre Half Back
Nickname(s): Cocky
Occupation: Lawyer
AFL Team: The Mighty Pussy Cats
Current Supercoach Ranking:
65,838 out of 373,299 (down 20,000 with a shocker last round!)
Best value for money Supercoach player in your side?
Would have to be Dyson Heppell, unfortunately every other SC mastermind in Australia got on the same at the start of the season as well! Edward Curnow sneaks in for an honourable mention.
Memory of first Kew FC game?
I can’t remember it to be honest, so I suspect I probably had a pretty quiet one on that particular occasion.
When did you last kick a goal?
Do practice matches count? If not, it would certainly be a fair while between drinks, seeing I spend most of my days alternating between Full Back and Centre Half Back. The attacking 50 is usually pretty unfamiliar territory during the course of a game.
I have heard they use both needles and drills at ‘No needles No drills’ (A reference to Cocky’s Mum’s Dental Surgery across the road from Vic Park). Can you either confirm or deny this allegation?
I could neither confirm or deny to be totally honest (it has probably been too long between visits!) but seeing at least half of the team have got their mouth guards and other dental needs sorted there this year, they must be doing some right..
How much hair product do you use?
Enough to get the job done I’d say. Then, a little bit more for good measure.
Thoughts on the evolution on man? Do you really believe we evolved from apes?
Not too sure, but I’ve certainly matched up against a few forwards in previous years that did still seem to be a stage or two behind in the evolutionary process.
You now have a Personal Assistant at your office. Did your girlfriend have to sign off on this?
Haha, she normally has the final word on most things. This was no exception!
What did you do last Saturday night?
I had one or two beers (three at most, Beaser) in St Kilda for a mate’s Birthday, followed by a filthy and equally delicious souvlaki to finish off the night.
