By now i recon that they have sorted out the captain at least in the clubs mind and i would not be surprised to see dobson who else may be lovegrove vice

For me Dobson should be the organiser on the field adjusting the plays as he see's the game at the time, the captain should be the person to sort out discipline on & off the field dealing with the ref, the coach & the board. To give Dobson both rolls would (in my opinion) put to much on his shoulders. I think most clubs have a senior group to represent the team, our trouble is the number of changes that are happening. A stand out candidate may emerge in pre season.

I agree with Obergruppenführer Mild Rover, a shouting and clapping contest should be held and whoever wins to be made El Capitano and forced to wear a beret and grow a big beard.

Well in that case lets sign up the guide for the blind chinese triple jumper, he knows how to quiet a crowd and get the attention of his man. And I dont mean that in a condescending way, that guy was scary!

i wouldnt say this was a bad idea he leads from the fron all the players look up to him for his comitment to the cause .......that remindes me of how David Watkison captained with a follow me attitude ...

With Galea going we have no natural skipper in the squad. We should do what FC did with Lynch, bring someone in to be the skipper.

Gingerspice, your very naughty! Wait till AS reads your comment lol!

I was talking to a trusted source who (whilst not committing himself) alluded to a ruling by the RFL on this matter. We won't know if the RFL will ratify the NRLs punishment until Travis is officially registered as a SL player (the usual vias clearance etc).
