What are you talking about. Lenny will be Captain as he is vice captain.saintlee wrote:In the past the captaincy has tended to go to others, I remember Kosi was acting skipper for the NAB cap a couple of years ago, so could possible be given to him when he returns....other contenders would have to be BJ or Sam Fisher
Think its pretty obvious what I was talking about. When Rooey has been injured or missed games in the past, Lenny hasn't necessarily been captain. I remember Kosi filled in at one point, as did Maxy.plugger66 wrote:What are you talking about.

I also believe BJ and Fisher could be good captains, hence why I added them.
Nothing against Lenny, but their are other candidates.
No there are not. Lenny is captain next week and will continue as Captain if he plays. If he doesnt then we look for other options.saintlee wrote:Think its pretty obvious what I was talking about.

I think Max captained us against Hawthorn last year, as Lenny and most of the leadership group we're sidelined.
I think Lenny will captain, but they may promote someone to be second in charge as it's a long period of time.
Yes, your probably right.SainterK wrote: Hi Saint Lee

If its okay with Plugger, I'll suggest Sam Fisher as a good VC

That has only applied if the Captain AND Vice-Captain were both out.saintlee wrote:In the past the captaincy has tended to go to others, I remember Kosi was acting skipper for the NAB cap a couple of years ago, so could possible be given to him when he returns....other contenders would have to be BJ or Sam Fisher
Lenny will get the gig as he is the Vice-Captain.

No doubt Lenny will be captain seeing that he is Vice-Captain.SainterK wrote:Hi Saint Leesaintlee wrote:Think its pretty obvious what I was talking about.

I agree they may decide to promote someone else from the leadership group to second him as it is a long period of time. If they choose to go down this path, the choice will be interesting. Agree with others that BJ and Sam Fisher would be good options.
Alternatively, they may just make Lenny acting captain and not name any other promotion, rather relying on the leadership group as a whole to step up.
Anyone know exactly who is in our leadership group this year???

Heard it discussed in a few places and most ended up agreeing he will probably just get a fine...not nearly as agressive as the Heath Shaw example, but all the same, you can't touch them ever. I think this probably got lost in all the other Saints news this weekend. MRP results should be out soon.St Chris wrote:Nobody's concerned about a umpire contact charge that may come up against Lenny??
I haven't seen the incident, but Triple M were discussing it on Saturday arvo, comparing it to Heath Shaw's charge which he copped a week for....

Not even mentioned in the discussions. It was pointed out in a couple of places so I'm surprised it he didn't get a fine. Two others were fined for making contact with an umpire this round.SainterK wrote:Not even fined as far as I can see?saintnick12 wrote:Heard it discussed in a few places and most ended up agreeing he will probably just get a fine...not nearly as agressive as the Heath Shaw example, but all the same, you can't touch them ever.

I think you will find in the past when different people filled in was when we had the rotating Captain system and no Vice. As someone said last year when Roo was out Lenny was also.
As Vice he will be Captain while Roo is out and watch him shine, he will be awesome our Lenny.

Stupid idea.Calais wrote:I know Lenny is our vice and we all know his leadership qualities but would anyone think it'd be a good idea to rotate the captaincy for a weeks between the likes of Joey, BJ, Fish, Gram , Dal and so on?
The rotating captains concept bollocks died when GT was sacked.
What we need is stability, and the same on field leader in Roo's absence.
