That's my only negative too, to be honest. It'll be interesting to know who the vice is.

I can just about stomach Walker being used as a prop, but he should not be anywhere near the starting 17 as a 2nd rower, loose forward or - god forbid - a centre.

Every year Walker has been at the club I've expected him to only be used as a backup, and every year he's ended up playing almost every game. I suppose it was silly of me to think that this year would be any different.

I expect Walker to figure in the backrow most weeks then by the sound of it.

There's a lot of competition for places there. We need a few old heads on the field. I can see the rationale. I just wonder if he'll be good enough to warrant a place in the 13 every week on merit.

Well that's certainly out of left field. Wouldn't have thought walker was even guaranteed a spot every week tbh.

Not for me (see page 2), picking Chev seemed a fairly logical choice IMO. I think he'll represent the club well both on and off the pitch.

Chev is being judged by his performance in SL - different situation and league so I will trust Jimmy's judgement on this

Sensible decision. Allows the rest of the squad to concentrate on playing. Chevrolet is an experienced man and by all accounts a model professional.

Yeah, agree with that. I've said before that I fully expect the changes to be rung in the early qualifying games with a lot of rotations and not always the 'best' available 17 each week, though not necessarily against the likes of Leigh or London, of course.

Chev has played quite a lot of games, but hasn't often [if ever] put in a full 80 minute shift, he's also at the age where you do pick up the sort of 'niggles' which need a bit more rest than they do when you are younger, which is why I wonder who the vice is going to be. Still not announced, I notice.

Re: Captain TBA : Sun Nov 30, 2014 11:30 pm  
Strange one for me. Given our squad would expect Chev to spend more time off field than on even if a model professional. In SL never saw /heard encouragement from him as someone with captaincy potential.....

Re: Captain TBA : Mon Dec 01, 2014 10:20 am  
There's an interview with Chev in today's T&A as well as comments from Jimmy regarding his selection as captain. The reasoning given seem sound enough to me so I'm happy to have Chev as captain and bring on 2015
