@geo-2 Tamou Captaincy style is very similar to Mbye’s, speak well off field but struggle to lead by example on it.
Seems to be the case - my problem with both is I never really considered either of them to be “our players” ie they are outsiders to Wests Tigers.
Robbie Farah was one of ours, Mark O’Neill and Aaron Woods too, but guys like Prince, Mbye and Tamou aren’t/weren’t “Wests Tigers” and thus captaincy always felt a bit clunky/odd.
I can agree with Mbye and Tamou, but I view Prince as one of ours. He gave everything he had to the club while he was here and was a great representative of the club.

Shawn Blore will emerge as a leader in this Team..
I hope so. He looks likely but he was running poor lines and pushing passes last year. He comes across to me as an athlete but not a footy player. If he adds some skill to his game he will be good. He makes his tackles which is unusual for a Tigers player.
I think the timing between he and Brooks was really poor, I am hoping he starts to hit those holes this year. He has a lot of attributes needed to be really damaging.
