Brad Johnson and the Captaincy
I love Brad. The heart and soul of our club. This is not a pot shot!!!
But a question was asked in another thread which i think deserves a thread for itself. That is, should Johno play on without the captaincy next year. Not as punishment or knee jerk reaction, but to hand over to say a younger captain like Higgins and usher in a knee era of leadership and allow him to just concentrate on playing. From memory, our last few captains have handed over before they actually retired.
Or, if Johno is in the RW&B should he be captain.
For me, I think a new cpatain and era of leadership will be refreshing and Higgins is the man. Johno should keep on playing and he is a natural leader in any event. It would be good to just let him play and put more responsibility on the younger leaders to standup and improve. That may just be where we get the extra improvement from?
Thoughts.
