| Guy clearly understands the psychology behind the game at this level and is a legend in the NRL. I hope and I'm sure it can translate to Hull FC.

I reckon Fitz or Long will get the captaincy and Fitz must be the favourite out of the 2.

| Quote: mrs cindy russell "I wish him well whilst he's wearing my team shirt, but for goodness sake I hate to see all this fawning over the bloke before he's even arrived in the City. Remember folks, Rugby League is a TEAM sport.....and if this season they play as a team and back each other up for the whole of the 80mins, then maybe at the end of 2010 we can all then join in with what the fans of Fitz,z ex club thought. As usual with me, the proof of the pudding is in the eating!! I'm not counting my chicks again like Crocker....I'll wait till I test the pudding this year.........grannyfan Cindy'"
Yer know what you mean, i think i'll fawn over the likes of Kingy and Tickle who set such a good example with their been there, done that, earned respect, and won every honour in the game attitude - oh wait a minute........ Think i'll be fawning over Fitzy thanks Cindy. What else you got to moan about??

I would be very surprised if either of those players would accept the captaincy in their first season at a new club. It will be hard enough for both players as it is, for differing reasons, without the added pressure of captaincy.

I reckon to Fitz the leadership thing comes naturally anyway especially on the field.

Quality playera shouldn't have a problem, take hodgson at huddersfield as an example.

Fitzgibbon will be like Galea. He might not have the captains armband but everybody will know he runs the team anyway.

| doesnt matter who is named captain, I have absolutely no doubt what so ever that the likes of Fitz and co will be a force in the dressing room, I would also hazzard a guess that who ever is captain will be rocketed if they dont produce it as well!!

I would expect he does, lets be honest non of these players comeover for the love of the club they are going to. Hull will have offered him a deal that was good enough to bring him to the country.
He seems like a very respected, professional player who has been very loyal to his club. He will no doubt be a great influence on the younger lads in your squad and barring any injuries a good addition to your squad.
I'd be shocked if Long wasn't your captain next year, he has the ego and presence for this role and think it will be a statement by Agar that this is his team this year and this is the man to lead it..
It is true what cindy says tho', many a big name has gone into a team and flopped, will be an interesting year next year.

Be prepared to be shocked then.
