Beam me up Scotty

Scott Prince. He did beam us up.

It would be an utter disgrace to take it off Api. The effort he has put in to try and drag this mob up is 2nd to none.

You could say that, but in many ways he has overplayed his hand. So if we continue to reward his standard, our mediocracy will continue throughout the side

Things are different now. Yes he overplayed his hand but he spilt his guts for us.

How long do we continue to give him the captaincy. certainly he has stepped up and tried his best, but at what stage do we start to change things up after 2 or 3 spoons? He might not be that good at training compared to gameday. I'm personally giving it to Fonua Pole

To give the captaincy to a new player is absurd. Was Api captain when he signed on the dotted line? First game he played.

On what basis do you give it to Pole? I certainly haven't seen leadership from him (maybe I haven't been watching closely). Surely if you strip it from Api it goes to Luai; who has leadership jumping out of his skin.

Api is the guy the recruitment drive has been based off.

Sure they come to play for Benji but Api's the the link they trust.

Api captain at least for this year.

Pole can't even make the starting team or make his tackles. Terrible option

I think you are still running on the adrenaline of his contract extension.

I was saying this mid-year. Some players get better with captaincy. I think he could

What? No love for Seyfarth?

No doubt Seyfarth tops the list, but bias and favouritism will prevail.

I see Alex as being a future captain and PNG Hunters stalwart.
