    OK Fact was going a little bit too far.

    Crap. There wasn't a recruiter in the land that would have taken Wines over Toumpas at draft time. FACT

    Correct. There wasn't a recruiter in the land that would have taken Wines over Toumpas. I know of one club that was gobsmaked that GWS didn't take him at 2 or 3. They thought JT was 10 times the player of Jonathan O'Rourke who GWS took at 2. Who knows, GWS passing over JT might just have all been part of the minidraft/Viney deal???
  4. One person?? That is where you have it totally wrong. Its a team responsibility to pull the team together when things are starting to go awry. Do you think Lenny Hayes stands back and waits for Roo to do something or Mitchell or Hanneberry or pendles or bartel???? You dont need to be captain to show leadership or do things that can pull your team together when things are starting go one way. The only difference between Jones and the the two Jacks should be the jacks do a bit more off field media, promotions, sponsorship commitments etc
  5. Do you think putting a C next to Jones name will make him a better leader than he currently is. Can you not be a leader without having a C next to your name. Will Jones be a better leader being capt? Is Grimes and JT becoming better leader by having the captaincy?
