Re: Harry Grant named as Storm captain

Welch not being part of it at all says potentially two things to me:

1 - He thinks he plays better without it

2 - He thinks not having that burden will help him get back into origin

I would think those are reasonable goals for him to have so I wonder if either is correct

Re: Leadership group

I just can't see him getting demoted from the captaincy though, much as I agree that Welch hasn't worked on field. I do think he's a good public face of the club though which I don't think the others necessarily do as well. Can you have an on field captain that's separate from the off field captain ...

Re: Leadership group

I wonder if we go with co captains again

Welch and Hughes or Welch and Munster

Grant and the leftover half as vice captains again

And then 2 or 3 others to round out the group, Papenhuyzen, Tui and King perhaps?

Leadership group

Does anyone know if we'll have the same leadership group this year?

What changes should be made?

I'd love to see Kane Bradley train the house down and get first crack at one of those centre positions, he's got a ton of upside

Re: 2024 Season

Hopefully Sua is thereabouts and gets a good run in the side this year.

The prop situation is concerning. I do think however, that MacDonald is the future of our front row and needs a spot in the side for the full year and he's not the biggest, he is a real goer though.
