I guess it doesn't matter if he's not a bolt on starter as anyone can be a captain.
Though he was already captain at the end of the last game no?

Not sure about this. I assume AAA won't be starting? I'd have given it to Valetini as the other captains are injured. This is a temp situation and forced on us I guess.
Yes and No. Joe, Jeff, Laurie etc have a pretty good idea who their preferred 'leadership' group is. Being skipper is a lot more than just being the best player. Clearly they see Harry as having leadership potential.Not sure about this. I assume AAA won't be starting? I'd have given it to Valetini as the other captains are injured.

Great to see Harry take over the captaincy, he has always a really positive effect on the guys around him.
I agree with the first sentence. Cale isn't in the running since he had a IV of antibiotics in a bum bag on the weekend due to an infection the poor bloke. Can't imagine he'll be good to go for a couple of weeks after getting better.Not even the best number eight in my books. Valetini and Charlie Cale would be my picks for #8
I wonder if that was planned or if he was just the only guy confident enough to say ‘yep, I’m him’.Yeah, finished the game as captain after losing all the props...
Also he needs to gain some kilos to be a real threat at international level. Valetini is the best 8 but he's also consistenly the best #6. He's the best backrower by farI agree with the first sentence. Cale isn't in the running since he had a IV of antibiotics in a bum bag on the weekend due to an infection the poor bloke.

It's really showing our depth is really poor at the moment.
I disagree, never seen any leadership ability in him at all, looks like a classic follower and not a leader.Yes and No. Joe, Jeff, Laurie etc have a pretty good idea who their preferred 'leadership' group is.

I love the use of language in that grab - "rocket" to the top of the leadership race. Nothing about the Wallabies lately is analogous to rockets.

Feels like we've been saying for everI hope this is a period that we see some pain but we are building a wider group of players for the future. Or at least cut away the ones not up to it.
