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

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.
A WT captain personality type or a winning captain personality type?
He's:
- competitive,
- holds everyone to a high standard
- supports team mates (see Brooks comment all year)
- great talker on the field and off
- directly manages the team on the field
That's what you want.
Or do you want the WT captain personality type - quiet, nice guys:
- Tamou
- Brooks
- Mybe

I would like someone that is able to have difficult conversations with other players without getting them offside.
In memory of Geoff Chisholm (1965-2022)
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.
Kevin N was Fiji captain.
I reckon it’s a lot of pressure throwing someone the captain responsibilities when they just arrive at a club - especially when guys like Api and Isaiah won’t even get a full off-season in with us first.

I think it's more a case of the club not being as committed to Hastings as we had all previously believed.
