As I said, I have no axe to grind as such regarding this as if we had an Andy Farrell or a Dean Bell at the club I seriously doubt Lockers would be captain. However, the fact that the 'next best' candidate at the club presided over this debacle shows that there is no-one else at the club capable of taking the armband and the amount of criticism he receives is totally unjustified. The team is at fault for most of the 'attitude' problems, not one player....even if that player is captain!
Well I have only just found out the result as I am in Milan on business (it's a hard life!) but how you can conclude because TL was not a good captain (assuming he wasn't) no one else could do the job besides Lockers is beyond me. No logic in it at all.
Anyway what went wrong with TL's captaincy? Was TL leading by example?

Its no suprise we missed Locky & Hock, easily our best two players.
More of a question is Mossop - playin SL for Hudds yet cant get a game ahead of Hansen or Flanagan?
Hansen since he has came back has been playing a lot better and at times has been playing as a prop. We could of done with Mossop yesterday, pointless sending him on loan to the Giants if he isn't going to be played.
Also I think Bailey or Richards should of been made captain ahead of Tommy.

Mossop played today against Leeds. At loose forward.
