after being at the kc last night i feel its time for a change regarding the captain.i am not having a go at holdsworth but he just doesnt seem the type of person who can scream and shout at people.every time we was under r post after a try he was very quiet. maybe if he didnt have the captaincy he may perform better.

Matty Smith should be captain as he is always the one shouting on the pitch and also regularly unfortunately when under the sticks.

Maybe we should leave the Captain debate to the people who really know. He was obviously chosen for a reason. Of all the things fans can debate, the choice of Captain is the one they have the least idea about. Being able to shout out on the paddock is not the only thing a Captain does, yet this is the only aspect fans actually see.

Pointless thread for me, as these threads only come up when we get beat. They never appear when we are winning.

Don't you dare make a common sense post, you need to call for the new coaches. captains, Queens, Boutros Boutros-Ghali and Willy Wonks head.

Think we need to understand that Salford at present are always likely to go out and pull utter tripe out of the hat and then next week run rings round a very good team.

The biggest problem on here is that there are too many people commenting on subjects they know very little about.

Cue dispositional assault seasoned with sarcasm.

so in that respect rlfans should only be for players who have played at super league level because they r the ones that really know.we all come on comment about the rights and wrongs but what do we know.

Not at all.

I was just making the point that of all the things fans have the right to question, Captaincy is the one they know the least about. It's fine to question the ability of a coach, or the performance of a player because you can clearly see with your own eyes when those things go wrong or right. The only aspect of Captaincy that fans see is the guy who leads the team out on matchday. Fans clearly don't know how good or rubbish a Captain is because the only people who can say that are the players and coaches around them.

The role of Captain is predominantly played-out away from matchdays. Someone who works with coaches to fine tune game plans, have a rapport with his team mates, be able to bond a team together aswell as point out flaws and encourage when required. There's so many aspects that for fans to question a Captains ability is like forming an opinion on a movie you've never seen.

Wild would be my captain! No disrespect to Holdsworth, but he should be relieved of the burden and allowed to concentrate on guiding the team around the park.

I've never been happy with Holdsworth being named as Captain because in my eyes it has effected his game.

Luke Patten is in my mind the ideal person for the job and I'm pretty sure our new head-coach will sort things out in time.
