Lestrange for me. Lynch isn't up to it which is pretty clear. Lestrange seems to have a lot of respect in the team since his arrival. Always Eager to get forward and getting in scrums, shouting orders out and celebrating with passion after every try. For me I think he be great. Thoughts?

If Langley can stay fit, I think he's pretty vocal and the team defends better (Wigan aside) . Big question on the fitness though.
As vocal as L'estrange is, he only plays 1/2 game and when Langley's fit, he on for most of the game.
If Lynch was captain in 2012, I wouldn't complain. I actually think he has been vocal at times when we have been losing.

Are those your criteria for captaincy?
To me, they are merely criteria for any aspiring successful sportsman. What criteria are you REALLY looking for in a captain? I lifted the following off a site* at random. There will be loads of other variations, but I thought a list like this might serve by way of example:
- the desire to lead by example
- a passionate belief in team spirit
- the ability to handle the conflicts that invariably arise when a team is under pressure
- the desire to put more input in planning the team’s strategies
- the ability to handle problems which may arise in a fair and expedient manner (eg. disqualifications)
- the ability to behave professionally and responsibility despite personal feelings of frustration and anger
- a thorough knowledge of the rules of the game
- a desire to build relationships with other members of the team, in good times and bad
- the ability to handle the burden of being captain while still playing in the team-
- the ability to inspire and motivate and raise team morale
How many of these criteria are we able to judge by what we see on the park on matchday? Hmm?

A fit Langley also gets my vote, but there is a big question mark over whether he can stay fit. Alot of bulls fans are crying out for a pack leader in the Glenn Morrison mould, but I think we already have this in Jamie Langley, when fit he leads from the front, he tightens up the defence no ends and puts them into place when they aren't bending their backs. I can't see any other candidates in the team other than heath and disko

We've already got the French international captian in our ranks, I cant understand why he's not the captain anyway. Can't see it being anybody but Lynch next season.

Interesting point re Olivier, Mike. Although I suppose you could say the same about Leeds and JP? Would Olivier be your man?

You could, but look at how excellently Sinfield has captained Leeds over the years though.
Most definatley Olivier for me. |

He has. And, from at least one person who has known him since before his teens, I gather he has always been a pretty exceptional - and very intelligent - player and individual. Can't deny I would have given a lot to see someone like him at Odsal.
I can see where you are coming from with Olivier. I guess the trouble is that we do not see anything other than what happens on the park on matchdays, so it is very hard to judge objectively? |

Yeah I agree. Damn fine Super League player and captain.
I guess so, but I dont see Lynch firing up a lot of players on match day.

Le'strange all the way for captain. Langley- not a chance as he is too injury prone and doesn't even justify his massive wags and so he wouldn't fulfill captains roll as he is never on the bleeding pitch! I think as time goes on his body will age even more and he will be more Suceptable to even more injuries. |
