I went to the game and he played pretty well. His supporting cast let him down (including Menzies of all people).

I flicked on the game yesterday arvo and it surprised me that Monas was captain, considering he hasn't seen too much action this season. Congrats, but he's no Todd Carney 8)

 

[innsaneink]

Hes as good as Monty as captain. :lol:

 

[raiders_lover_18]

He had a blinder. HOW FAST IS BRETT STEWART

 

[Poida_Raider]

you'd think they'd go with a club man of all people to be a captain, or atleast someone with a bit more experience. but i spose the only club men they have is menzies, and hoppa... kinda.
and then they dont have that many experienced guys either, williamsn woulda be better i reckon, but hes not in the starting side. good luck to mick though.

how shit are manly though!! haha

 

[raiders_lover_18]

they are ok in attack just SHITE in defence

It was done as a sweetender for Joel, who was a guest of the Sea Eagles yesterday. A bit of emotional blackmail to try and get him to sign on the dotted line.

The Roosters will probably make Finch captain next week. :lol:

I wonder if Joel was impressed with the Manly defensive line.....

Thats a bit silly, Monas deserved to be the one and will hold it for the rest of the year, I believe Ben Kennedy will replace him next year.

I thought the same thing when I heard the news.

 

[BAY72]

It's only temporary. Apparently Kennedy will take over next season.

 

[thuganomics]

I would of thought Walker would of taken the captaincy role.

No No No .... its "I would have thought Walker would have taken the captaincy role. ;-) ;-)

 

[GreenGuy]

Good work, grammar check ;-)

 

[Disco]

I believe had Randall been fit he would have been Captain

But either way Mona's will do a fine job, and he had an absolute blinder on sunday

To me it seems a little transparent that a player returning from an extended injury layoff is given the captaincy the same day his brother is in the stands being wooed by management to sign a deal with the club.

Call me a cynic but to me it paints quite an obvious picture.

your theory must have worked Legend - WOOHOO!
