Captain courageous resigns

[coolumsharkie]

The idea of Barrett as (c) doesn't sit well with me either. It's the only choice we have though, I'd say Dougy desreves it but he's got enough on his plate already.

A smart club would simply remove the (c) from his name on the team sheets. Then business as usual.

just like last year....

Just let someone else toss the coin and speak to the pink poofs.

Judging by some comments Barrett and other players have made in the media I am pretty sure this is the case Frenz. Gallen is still captain in all bar the team sheet.

 

[blacktip-reefy]

So Gal is still club captain?

 

[Mr Angry]

His position as club captain was set to be the first item on the agenda for the new Sharks board's first meeting on Tuesday night, Gallen saving them the tough decision by quitting the post.

Barrett Captain:shock: Talk of the Blind leading the Blind, sorry guys i dont agree with Barrett as captian

why do you think we care what you think?

Bird for captain

I can't believe Frenzy hasn't hammered me for my ongoing love for Birdie and his future as the sharks captain.
He always said Birdie would never captain the Sharks.

Im proud of this bloke, f**k the media, f**k the other fans, for someone to put the club first is unheard of these days.good on him.

Put the club first? Are you kidding, you must not be talking about Gallen.

Lets look at the events

T=0 Gallen racially abuse Paea

T=0 Paea decided not to pursue the matter and not damage the Sharks club or Rugby League

T+2 Cronulla spoke to their other players, who confirm what Gallen said, they then leak that Gallen will be sacked

T+2 NRL after hearing the FACTS fines Gallen for the Bastard act

T+8, after getting pushed multiple time, being left without any option, knowing that he will be sacked in any caseGallen walk the prank and resign as captain

Yeah he really took one for the club

Good to see him sticking up for Matty.

 

[millersnose]

"I think the way that incident was portrayed was totally biased and I think the treatment of Matthew Johns was disgraceful," Gallen said.

given the circumstances that was a brave thing for gallen to say

his actions over the last 2 days make me proud to support the sharks

 

[blacktip-reefy]

He's a brave man. Full stop.

 

[carcharias]

he's a great man.
