Was going to suggest Aumua as a smokey, but bloody hell I didn't realise how old he is!
Darry looking very promising.
EdG prolly worth a look.
Fuck it, just announce Barnes as Ardie's successor after tomorrow's game.
It can't be a back. Our best captains, in my lifetime, are mostly found in the backrow. Not sure we have anyone who is a nailed on starter other than Ardie who is obvious captain material right now

As in I prefer the future captain not to be a back based on the current crop.

pfffft......Semantics.
@canefan said in Who should be AB captain?:
That was intense, for a minute or two…
.....anyway, back on topic. Looking forward to Cam Roigard being named skipper. Failing that Jordie, would be good to have three AB captains in the family.
@antipodean said in Who should be AB captain?:
@taniwharugby whoever is captain post 2027, I can guarantee it won't be the bloke headbutting the coach
I'm picking Lakai. Bets in here folks.

Oh I thought @canefan was automatically blacklisting Canes players...
Nailed on starters (and ideally playing more than 40-50 minutes) are...

Cam Roigard.
Sorry, it can't be a back
In his defence Cam cheats like a forward...
@sparky said in Who should be AB captain?:
@MN5 1987 and 1991 Rugby World Cups were won by teams captained by half backs.
George Gregan, Agustin Pinchot and Gareth Edwards all captained their countries with distinction in the Number 9 jersey.
Doesn't matter. If you'd read the thread you'd know that @canefan said it can't be a back.

Well, a back who has played for the Canes...

Happy with Ardie til WC27 then perhaps Roigard thereafter.
Don't be coy now, Roigard is even better than our (by far) best halfback ever. He should also be vice captain.
