I said this last week, we other players to kick the goals such as Fitzgibbon and Tickle. We also have Fitzgibbon who can lead the side. Let Sean Long concentrate on laying no.7 and nothing else.

Why will we only get 50% out of him next season?

I'd be happy for Fitzgibbon or Long to do it. Depends if they need the added pressure of moving to a new club and the need to impress the new clubs fans etc added to with the captaincy.
