If the NRL lost an incumbent captain to ARU" ?????
Lockyer is the stand-in captain. If Johns had been fit, Lockyer would have been Vice Captain. So he's standing in for the guy who is injured.
Understand?
You know Lockyer would be classified as the stand in captain if had to cover for one game or maybe two not two years of Tri Nations, believe it or not Krupa he has been captain for quite a substantial amount of time. The matter here isn't that if Johns had been fit cause he wasn't fit and Lockyer was, truth be it, the time of Johns captaincy has probably passed him by while he was injured those last couple of years.
I am not a Brisbane Fan nor a Knights Fan. I simply live near Newcastle and support the Panthers so I have no bias but listening to your comments kind of reminds me of almost every knights game I have been to. You complain about anything and everything if the slightest ball sway doesn't go your way. Hell I have seen a ref booed off after you guys were wining quite substantially.
I present to you the most moronic poster on LU!
I post in the Knights forum! What did you expect? I support the Knights and Joey's my favourite player. This isn't the NRL forum! It's the Knights!
How would you react if some troll came on and bagged out your favourate Panthers player? (I'm refering to $broncos$ here, not you.)
If this was the NRL forum, I'd take my licks with aplomb.
Just don't expect me to agree with you because you happen to think I should!
I don't think you should agree with me. I think you should value most other peoples opinions.
People bag Panther players all the time hell even I do it.
But I also listen to reason.
Like I said before Joey is probably the greatest ever to have played but I don't think he should take the captaincy away from Lockyer who has handled the captaincy whilst Johns has been on his 2 year injury run.
Don't think about who would do a better job and who plays for who think that he has held it for that long and has done a damn fine job, I don't care what deal was made or whatever I think it would be a great injustice for anyone but him captaining next season.
