i agree on that point,
you could really see his leadership during saturdays game and after the game when he gave them a chat in the huddle

Lenny Hayes I think should have been made captain in the first place. But Rooey has shown he deserves to be in the captains position so I think he should be kept there for a few more years.

Probably Luke Ball or Kosi. Rooy and Lenny have been disappointing.

why have lenny and rooey been disappointing ??? Didn't you see Riewoldt pull the team together and get us over the line on Saturday. & Lenny give his absolute everything and inspire the team against Freo in the first quater. They both give 100% each week thats what a leader is

If Lenny was any good he would not have got injured against Freo and Rooy would have not fumbled that ball against North if he was any good. Lets replace them I say.

That is just a very stupid thing to say do you think Lenny could help getting injured he didn't do it to himself. & yes Riewoldt had a bad quater on Saturday but he lifed himself and the rest of the team. Do you know what you are talking about at all?

I'm pretty sure we've ditched the rotational policy.

I'd put money on Roo as long-term captain.

2 weeks is a long time in footy. Half the people on here wanted Rooy sacked now he is everyones love child again. He was made Captain and will be Captain until he leaves or doesnt want it anymore. Win lose or draw that is what will happen.

Weren't many of us for a while there, but as most often happens when you hold to your heart-felt convictions (rather than panicking and changing horses midstream) you are proven right.

I reckon a large reason we made Roo captain is so he stays captain, so when the GC team comes in we can be like 'but u cant take our capn away!!11'

I was Lenny all the way, and still think he'd be an awesome captain. But Roo has shown why he should be captain in the last 2 weeks. He can dominate a game, unlike Lenny (although 16 touches in a quarter aint bad).

Who has more of a physical presence? Roo or Lenny? Roo's massive, but he doesn't push people around, Lenny's fkn tough as nails and some of those bumps are massive. If Roo could push his weight around a little more he'd go a long way to being a great capn.

Reiwoldt as captain until there is a reason for him not to be.

Richter · Post: # 597939Post **Richter** » Wed 02 Jul 2008 10:17pm

Yep. Roo is the man. Can't believe how unloved he is by Saints fans. Has as many B and F's as Robert Harvey and he is only half way through his career.

(Although I expect Harvey has another 20 years in him.......

)

Yep I agree. IMHO his leadership has been really good this year and (sadly to say) a captain must have a high media profile and be media savvy and Rooey fits the bill there

BANG BANG

Would anyone consider Goddard? I reckon he would be awesome. But Rooey is definately the man atm. Super star

who should be captain next year? any nominations
