2012 Captaincy ?

Hoping Robbie comes back next week all bullets blazing and leads the team around the park like the champion he is…but
I am really impressed with the maturity Benji is showing on the field. Does he deserve a run at captain?
 
I've been thinking about this as well although I think I'd want to see the team list say…...

12\. Gareth Ellis (c)

He's been the players player 3 years in a row, and I think it would bring he's game to another level!
Also it would allow Robbie to concentrate on his game
 
Don't we want Gareth concentrating on his own game?
Robbie is a good leader with his talk and will do a great job again this year!

Robbies role as captain in the side works welll and takes that sort of pressure off benji. Which is exactlly why i think moltz slotting in to half is pivital..it releaves the pressure on benji to just relax and play his natural game. In one way or another benji will have his hand in leading the troops just in his own way.Cant wait to see robbie back in 2012
 
Robbie has done nothing to deserve having the captaincy taken off him. But i agree with Ink. Lawrence is the captain-in waiting. I just look at the way he conducted himself through the Moltzen drama last year. He said that it was up for the two clubs to work out, whereas Marshall was letting personal feelings take-over. Rowdy is a real preofessional and has captain written all over him IMO
 
Robbie will stay captain for sure but if it was any1 else I think Heighno deserves it, his work ethic and leadership beat any player in the game and if any1 deserves captaincy it's him

What short memories?
If you mean Benji needing to focus on his game…the stress of captaincy stuff (was that 2010)...he managed to captain the All Stars pretty well I thought.

Gosh…we really do have a team of champions :smiley: :sign:

Sounds like we have too many chiefs and not enough indians :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Robbie is a great captain.

Tigers in 2012 has the makings of a champion team if they all stay healthy and happy :smiley:

Bring on round 1
 
Robbie is a great captian and will continue to be , Benji Marshall and Gareth Ellis , could both take the reigns at any time and do a great job .

Possible Future captains in the squad
Chris Lawrence and Tim Moltzen , both are 4-5 years younger then Robbie and Benji .

Aside from them Adam Blair also has definite leadership qualities , I could see him running out first sometime in the future .

Robbie is the man!

Benji is the captain whenever Robbie doesn't play.

Chrissy Lawrence is the future!

It's all good! :sign:
 
I would prefer Ellis. He is such a good bloke and well respected that i think the refs might favour him a bit more than they do with robbie. Lets be honest, we have got rundown in 2 finals games, before that we fell over in a few games for the top 8\. if the captains job is to inspire and to add resolve to the team, i can't say that robbies track record is all that great.

If we fall over again by blowing a lead, i think robbie should stand aside.
