Maybe you should READ the post properly.
I didn't say it was his 'fault'.
I said he, as captain, didn't seem to help in manage it.
Every team has a captain whose job it is to lead them, and hold the team together - and he doesn't seem to be doing or saying much to hold us together.
If that's because his influence is lost when he's not on the field, or whatever reason, it's not good enough.
Not everyone is captain material.
We've been coughing up leads for the best part of ten years. No one dragged Farah over coals for it.

Maybe because Farah was at least seen to be involved as captain whether everyone approved that style or not. Whereas Woods is not seen by many to be involved at all. It is sort of getting a good pay increase while having a bludge on the job.

No worries Captain Overreaction.
Now Woods is bludging as well as a bad captain.
At least the board has moved on from Taylor as the whipping boy.

Not unusual apparently,according to the TAB mouth on BSB this morning they accepted a bet for $100,000+ on Manly last night just before kickoff.
Big game against Parra.,probaly will define our season.

Well obviously the captain has nothing to do it with it. If a hard nosed bloke like Farah couldn't turn our fortunes maybe it runs deeper than who has the "C" next to their name?

You are not suggesting another "C" next rung up the ladder? Being there done that
Reading some of these comments about Woods as captain seem unbelievable.
Im not sure what people expect.
Every side in the NRL is full of really good players (some more than others), at various stages the other side is going to have the better of it in a game. We are unlikely to control many games start to finish and not have the other side be on top at some point.
Brisbane had Penrith on toast and lost. Canberra had Newcastle (everyones tip for the spoon) on toast and drew. Souths couldnt get over Saints who have shown very little to date. Given we have no emotional attachment to those teams, we can look it more objectively. Do we all still think that Brisbane will be right up there, Souths are a good side and Canberra will threaten for the 8, despite their hiccups on the weekend. Im sure we do.
Why do we then panic so much when we lose.
I don think anyone thinks we can win the comp, but I think we have also shown we are not hopeless either.

Sideline eye…..think you better check my previous posts. Farah lost me when he got potter sacked but hopefully he can improve our team given we are paying him marque money....at least his experience is worth something.

I have read here previously that Potters contract expired and it was just not renewed, a bit different from sacking.

Robbie is not the type of person to turn his back on the team down no matter what, especially if it involves the captaincy. What surprises me is the seemingly lack of other potential candidates for captaincy. But maybe only because I am not familiar with all the players.
I think Robbie would love finishing his career at top of the team.
