With stability and a pathway for our coaching situation for next 5 years - we now need the same for the leaders within our playing group.

 

Interested in your thoughts on who will/should be our captain for the next 3 years

I doubt that next year's captain will be captain in 25.

And that there is one of our biggest issues we need to fix. 

We need senior leaders to build around

I think the captaincy is a bit of an overblown issue to be honest - unless it's given to someone to specifically bring out their latent leadership skills. 

Leaders will lead regardless of whether they have the (c) next to their name in the program.

I like Joffa - really stood up as a leader this year

But I don't see him in the starting 13 (high impact front rower pending)

Api is an elite player in a key spine position, and signed for the next 3 years.

He led Fiji to a great WC tournament.

Only issue is he's a newbie.

I'm hoping we will be bringing in a player that will take that role in future years as no one on the books at this point would be my choice long term.

I think we should have 17 captains 

 

I would have said Hastings but I’m starting to get the feeling he is not as committed as he’d like us all to believe 

 

Joffa for 23

So your vote is for Aaron Woods?

Funny how the narrative is changing on Hastings. 

I'm still a big fan. 

Would be my vote if sheens sees him at 13 or 7 for the next 3/4 years

I don't know if he is the right personality type for the captaincy.
