Captain Next Year

Just had an idea. What If they made Mini ans Corner joint Captains? I know its not something we usually do, but heck, its not the worst result in the world. So having them both as captain is sort of a way so that Cords doesn't have all the pressure on him, and has Minis experience to draw from.

That?s actually not a bad idea.

I don?t think Cordner is ready to be the captain yet. He doesn?t have much experience with the media and it is hard to imagine at his young age that he commands respect from the rest of the side. Mini does command respect and he might just be the mentor Cordner needs and at least this way the club can give Mini his last year captaincy.

Great minds think alike.

See my post from a month or so ago in this very thread.

It would work.

I found the aubo to starting centre the best bit. Been such a shining light there for us this year as well. All because he runs good lines.

hey Jack you genius

anyone who rates Cordner as a starter or wants him as captain is a half-wit...go watch soccer.

if you've got him as player of the year...i suppose your runner-ups are Count & Pearce,right ? Go watch AFL....you're sure not watching JWH you simp.

i didnt nom Aubo for centre OR captain you poor silly fool...read the comment.I would reluctantly wear him (at long odds) if it means dopey BJ gets flicked...and i don't want him interfering with with the backrow we'll have with SBW,Guerra,Taka etc...given Aubo's work-rate was appalling all year.

You probably would not have noticed how disgraceful MOGA's LHS defence was either.

No doubt you & your mates have Count ahead of Roger at fullback as well.

Nah JWH was my runner up.
Don't want Mini in the side next year either.
Also don't want aubo in the back row set up.
Moga's attitude has been lazy as f**k all year in defence so you're not telling me anything i dont already know. Lost your shit over nothing champ.

Now the seasons done and dusted I gotta say the Cordner to captain call now seems a tad rash.

Robbo will make the right choice I'm sure.

Am not here to troll but to make a serious comment. Cordner is a superb idea. He's just what your club needs to make a break with the past and change the current culture. Young, vocal, a natural leader, and from what I've heard, well-spoken. It's exactly why I advocated Burgess as our captain last year.

Sam,you and your 40 years of failure got yourselves lost over here

f**k off & hang out with Rusty & all the other souffs tards & vermin

better still - go hop onto the LOL@5(c)uff$ thread...hours of fun lolling at 5ouff$

Sam is more then welcome to post here tbh. He had some nice input. Its always interesting to see our club through the eyes of another teams supporter.

Also, the lol@souffs thread has gotten stale. Its not even funny anymore.

Maloney lol, Very good running five eigth but the blokes just to unreliable regarding his on field behaviour. He'll be great for you guys next year but you will see what I mean in 2014.

Unless Aubs plays out of his skin in preseason, I really doubt he'll be the captain, mainly because of his sub-par form at the backend of last season and the competition for Back Row. He may not even get a starting spot.

Just had an idea. What If they made Mini ans Corner joint Captains? ... Minis experience to draw from.

keep the astute ideas coming Monk

now you've got a teenage benchie & a tactically clueless old bloke who will struggle to avoid Henson Park as co-captains...wow leadership !

No surprise you clowns voted The Count as Members' MVP this year...why didn't you vote the $450k dud Pearce as runner-up ?

oh & btw - unlike some...Roger actually knows how to tackle & how to stop a Try...ask Brett Morris

i also doubt that Roger would run the ball upright out of his in-goal & get smashed back in...a Count Duckula Art Form.

Coming from a guy who thinks our captain should be a bloke who hasn't played a single game for our club? Right.

Maloney is your Captain.

FTR - I don't see anyone bashing RTS in this thread. So I don't see why you're trying to defend him. Obviously he'll be taking Mini's spot at fullback, when that time comes TR will make that call. Stop being a whiney grub.

i'm saying RTS is a more valuable fullback - his time has come

duckula can start his golden handshake year on the wing

thanks scoop for letting us know no-one has trashed RTS - my "unlike some" comment referred to duckula's goal-line defence

and this mob have nothing remotely Captaincy on their roster right now

who cares if JM never played there - that may be an asset

i'll back him in for Pearce or Carney's Origin jumper this year

Definitely a leadership group situation rather than a single captain for next season

JWH, Friend, Maubs, Pearce, Mini, Cordner & Maloney will be the contenders
