Friday people, FRIDAY!
All will be revealed, and we can construct our best XXIIIs.
On an alternative train of thought, what do we want out of a Captain? In the leadership group for the Rebs, Pyle is gone, Higgers is in the Wallaby squad, Laurie is playing for the stars and Engo is a winger. Beyond that, Fugs is unlikely to play, and Burgess may end up playing in Sydney.
I don't want a front rower or back 3 player as captain (front rowers always get replaced, and the back 3 are often too far away to make a significant contribution as captain).
Then the question is, do we want a captain from the Rebels, or do we want one of the more experienced Club boys to take it, and give something to them.
For mine, I wouldn't mind Colby captaining the side, assuming he stays. He's in a good age bracket, no real injury worries and unlikely to be called up to the Canary Jersey unless Hooper, Hodgeson and Gill all go down with injury.
