le Captaincy.

[2026]

Were you satisfied with Pearce and Friend as our new co-captains? Did we lack leadership against the Broncos?

Was the added responsibility a burden and did this effect their performance?

Is there anyone else who you'd consider ?

[ROC181]

Nah! Should be someone that commands respect from teammates and opposition. Jarryd does and though as some say he doesn't play 80 well maybe a deputy should be appointed. Friend as much as he tries doesn't have that captaincy authority and as for Pearce, well he gets a lot of people bagging him here as well as heis supporters but out there he gets none.Hes an easy target for ridicule. should have always been Jatryd.

Sounds like a question for the team. Its pretty hard to judge from a distance. They seemed adequate although I guess they would seem better than adequate if we were playing this weekend.

I'd consider JWH and Cordner.
Jake seems a bit quite, and his form was better before he got the gig.
Pearce is Pearce.

[Johnny Tobin]

You have to trust the decision made by Robbo. He is with them every day on and off the field.

It's true we could have done with some old heads but that's the squad we have.

Im reserved..on the captaincy issue Im not sold yet .


As for the other rumour Jack Bird wants out of Cronulla unless he is 5/8th..Now I know Nick is an admirer and wanted to have a crack at him earlier this year but there is nowhere for him at our club ???

6- Jack Bird
7- Jackson Hastings

Johns would have some young talent to work with then,

Friend has no idea how to speak to refs. And Pearce always looks like a rabbit in the headlights.

I'd seriously give it to Hargreaves. He's the natural leader.

Pearce retired has he?

[Chook]

Friend also needs to balance how many times he speaks to the refs, it seems the more he does the less his is impact.

We still have a young squad and if we can keep the majority together I'm hoping it's long term we're going to be arguing over Prelim Finals involving us.

Chook.

Captaincy this year with Friend and Pearce infinitely better than last year with Minichiello the soft c*ck.

Just on that point, RTS infinitely better than Minichiello at fullback. Mini should have left a winner in 2013.

Jack Bird played a lot of his juniors at fullback.....that would be hilarious, we sell them Jimmy and end up with Jack Bird!

Pearce who ?

[novice chook]

Both Jake and Mitch will take a season or so to settle into the captaincy role. You cant expect them to have the leadership smarts like Cam Smith and Paul Gallen from the get go. It would be no different if JWH or Boyd had been made captain.

I'll trust Robbo's judgment on this one. He sees a lot more of them in different situations than we do. What they contribute off the the field is just important as on the field. And thats what most of us wouldnt have a clue about.

Also Birds best mate is Hastings... This could be interesting
