Now that Geary is out...

Post: # 1796136Post outside66 »

Who should our captain be? I don't think Seb Ross has shown in his time that he's the right choice to lead in Geary's absence. So instead of Ross, I would prefer the mantle go to someone like Membrey instead as we need to freshen things up abit. Outside of that, I can't really think of anyone else who would deserve the right/has the capacity to skipper our team unfortunately.

Yes, although he should be doing so from an HF/HB flank

I'd get around Steele as our stand-in Captain. Certainly would lead by example.

Quite correct. That hate shown to Seb on this forum is unbelievable.

Yep. Could be a much better forum otherwise. It's a toxic environment that luckily doesn't get anywhere into ST KFC.

Seb till season's end. My guess - new coach will make Hannebury captain (assuming he's fit to play!) if that coach is an outsider.

I think Lenny or Harves would make a different choice.

Just give it to Hanners after the bye. Should be in the leadership group anyway.

Sebby is the Captain now until Gears gets back. That's why they call it "Vice".

Unfortunately our list is devoid of young leaders banging the door down.

Whether I agree or not, Seb Ross is our vice captain, and I'll expect he will be the acting captain in geary's absence.

My choice is Jack Billings, I believe he is an astute student of the game and he has good communication skills.

Luke Dunstan was earmarked as a future leader early in his career, and he demonstrates on field courage and leadership. Intuition tells me that Luke would thrive and mature into a strong leader under an alternate coach.

It could be argued that this is the perfect timing to reintroduce the rotating weekly captain route that we adopted years ago when either Lenny or Hamil missed a chunk of season..

Expose some of these guys to the position and some responsibility..
