I think Jake is the obvious choice. Sure, his game has regressed but he did captain NSW last year to a series win. He didn’t get a heap of game time but by all accounts he was inspirational.

Teams with halfbacks as captains kinda kill two birds with one stone, because the 7 is largely responsible for the set-by-set organisation of the team. So once the players are on the field, they’re getting a fair bit of direction from the 7, whether that’s the captain or not. So, whoever plays 7 next year will providing guidance. If Jake is captain, we just need him to set high standards at training, pump everyone up in the sheds before the games, and rip in physically when he happens to be on the field (which we know he will do).

He’s been a captain for NSW, no one bleeds the colours more than Jake

Jakes Manly Pump Up Perspective ...
Teams have a Captain or Co Captains and Team Leaders to pump up the players

Jake may not have the C next to his name
But he is a predominant leader in the playing squad and in the pack
I do not see much pumping up from jake when we are under the pump and behind our goal post.
Besides . Jakes Best year are over and we need to plan for the future .

Jake was the captain of our NSW team but seldom was he on the field as the coach preferred other players for the on field battle . Other more dominant match winning players
No coach has their dominant match winning players on the side line

I would have our most Inspirational player as our Inspirational Leader Tom
But will he be on the field long enough to lead the way as team captains are required to do

A Great coach can turn Haumole into a Great captain
and Bring the Best out of the Premium Back Rower

 

[eaglezap]

Tom & Jake as Co-Captains !

 

[KNUCKLES]

Give jake the captaincy for one year before he hangs up the boots.... hopefully

 

[47MVEagle]

Jake & Tom co-captains.

Haumole needs another year or 2 before I’d consider him captain material.
