| Well I will own up to one of them!
Based on what we know (which may be a load of rubbish but it's all we've got just now), Steve seems to stand out as being extremely popular with team-mates; very professional in his attitude to the game (on and off the pitch) and a relentless worker in games.
Those appear to be the right ingredients for a captain, but I have not met many of the current squad and may be a million miles off the mark.
The other issue is what options we have?
Frankie Mariano - Too young and inexperienced,
Tim Smith - needs to concentrate on other issues
Isaac John - See FM above
Paul Johnson - See IJ above
Ali Lautiti - Not enough game time / needs to play a different role
Kyle Amor - See PJ above - but maybe less so
The other candidate to consider will be Andy Raleigh, but beyond that I can't think of one!  |

I think Steve is a leading candidate but Agar has to make his choice at training and getting to know the lads as a group then and only then he can decide the captain. Anyway more signings maybe coming so we will have to see.

I'd probably go for Amor but i wouldn't be shocked if Obst got it if and when he signs.

I would've thought Southern would be a strong contender just based on the fact that he has bags of experience and is known to be tough as nails.
It would however be nice to see lads like Mariano, Johnson and Amor given vice-captain type roles, to help them develop leadership skills and grow their confidence.
Even though I feel a bit weird about it, I agree with NGB4C - RA will need some time with the squad to see who really has the captain's qualities.

He's not, he's played for Ireland. So he must be Irish. |

Southern seems the obvious choice when you consider the other candidates on the poll, all of which don't really have what it takes to be a team captain imo. He seems the sort of character to lead by example (from what i saw in NRL a few years ago) has experience and more importantly is a ginger. Every teams needs a ginger.
Some of the other "candidates" clearly dont have the experience (Mariano, Amor, John etc) and others don't seem to be captain types, such as Lauitiiti and may not provide the gametime to be effective.
The other one i would consider would be Tim Smith, if it wasn't for the uncertainty surrounding the off-field issues he has had.

I've gone for bluey cos when the bricks are down he would be the one to take it up and smash em. If you have seen him play you will know you would rather have him with you then against you. A real leader
