Who said I was posting about you? I was posting general.
Quote: salford1970 "Sinfield is 33. If anyone thinks they should be playing rep footy in their mid thirties I would tell them to have a word with themselves, it is too fast for an aging body and whilst he has an excellent kicking game the rest of his game doesn't suit the role nor has he ever been a standout against the big two.'"
If 33 is too old, then 31 is too old. And in anycase Peacock before him was 34 before relinquishing the captaincy. As with any player ever in the game, you will not stand out often against top oppossition if your team mates don't either. Not seen Tomkins have even a half decent game yet against the so called big two, how does that fit into your reasoning?
Quote: salford1970 "SOL might get one or two years as captain. I can't see an alternative other than Graham and he isn't up here for the Exiles games so I would pick someone home based for the role.'"
Graham is a much better alternative than a guy that is 31 where you deem too old only two years later. Graham did fill in as captain previously.
Quote: salford1970 "And I actually do care that McNamara is removed from the role. I don't know how he landed it in the first place considering his tenure at Bradford.'"
Make no difference what you care. As most sensible posters can work out, the results and the position we are would be no different under a different coach. Infact Tony Smiths results and performances as coach were worse, and he is regarded as a top coach.
