Gaz will wear the #6, but that doesn't mean he will be playing a traditional 5/8th's game. Hornby will, or should be captain. :)

If I had my way, Hornby to both questions.

Dean Young for vice captain.

5/8th Gaz unless he goes absolutely sh*t then ?, but I don't think he will fail, but as for captaincy - Dual role for Benny Hornby and Dean Young in my opinion.

If there are a few games next year where Ben Hornby is out injured, I believe Nathan Brown will name Simon Woolford as our captain. I cringe at the thought but it is a possibility and Woolford does have a lot of experience as captain.

I will be interested to see how Woolford plays against us this Sunday. If he doesn't play well I will be rather angry that we bought a crappy player. If he plays well and the raiders beat us then I will be even more angry at him.

Whatever the outcome, it looks like I'm just going to have to hate the bloke.

Truth be told, I like the idea of Woolford coming over to us next year.

I was against signing him (Woolford) from the start, unless we are paying him absolutely crap we would be better served getting Gorrell's name on a contract rather than telling him to test the market.
As far as Woolford filling in as captain, forget that. Dragons are captained by Dragons, not germs. Dean Young is a perfect stand in captain and a future full time capt.

Whatever you think of Woolford neither Young or Gorrell are a solution to starting hooker. Gorrell has been outstanding for us coming off the bench but he is not up to playing 60 mins +. Impact player yes but every game this year he has started has been pretty ineffectual. Gorrell would not be a starting hooker at any other club in the competition apart from Souths and possibly Manly.

If gaz comes close to either role its a bloody joke....he has nxt to no brains and isn't a ball player at all....i hope the forget about him at 5/8 i have absolutely no idea why it even comes into question when there is some1 clearly better than him allready doing the job most of the time....Hornby for both!
