BRISBANE midfielder Daniel Rich says it would be a "huge honour" to be appointed Lions co-captain.
Rich, along with Tom Rockliff, Daniel Merrett, Jed Adcock and Joel Patfull, is a leading contender for the post created by Jonathan Brown stepping down from the sole captaincy to help usher in a new generation of leadership.
The 22-year-old said he would relish the opportunity to work alongside Brown if given the chance.
"To be able to learn from Brownie would be huge because it is not like you are being thrown in the deep end," Rich said.
"It is a massive responsibility for whoever gets the job but also a huge honour." Adcock, who has filled in for Brown when the skipper has been unavailable in recent years, says he still has plenty to offer.
"If the position came up for me, I'd love to do it but in saying that there is a really good crop of players that could take that role," he said. "I'm only 27, I hope I'm not too old."
The Lions are expected to name the co-captain before their first NAB Cup fixture on February 23.
Meanwhile utility Brent Staker has had a hiccup with his comeback from a knee reconstruction. He will undergo a precautionary arthriscope procedure tomorrow on the knee that was not reconstructed.
