CHRIS Newman's tough captaincy initiation in a crisis-ridden 2009 has made him the exceptional skipper that he is today, according to the man he replaced, Kane Johnson.
LMAO @ Getting a quote from the worst,most insipid leader the club has ever had.
Ok.let's discuss this,fellow posters.
What are your opinions on Chris as a captain?
IMO,He's a good ordinary footballer.
Whether he is a natural backman or not,it's where he's landed.
I can't recall many inspirational moments as a player but i guess of the group,he's the most level headed.
i'm not sure he has fully taken to the roll of Captain,it's like he took the job because word around "the club" was he would make a good one.
Would like to see him hand the reigns over to Cotch at the end of the year and concentrate on his game,ie
Offering some direction and confidence in the backline,not turning the ball over which he does ALL the time - it makes it hard to respect the guy as a footballer captaining the rfc
and finally CONSISTENTLY leading by example.
He's been playing footy long enough to be able to.
If I can feel his negative vibe coming off the field when he silently broods
I'm sure the players do...
