What's the point of within the next month? Why plan for something like that? Short and sharp. Do it. Don't talk about it. Reflects the problem of the team really. Why tackle now when you can plan for it next week?

Agree. On the MJ’s Show, Hindmarsh pointed out half the players were not listening to Jake, just staring off somewhere thinking, Mmmm....chicken.
It'd be nice if one journo or media hack would acknowledge they just got their rumour off ST.
I mean it's the right thing to do and it wont make your thingy shrivel (men only).
I don't know how much extra Captains in RL have to do so I'm not sure of the workload. If it helps dce get back into form, then pitter patter, let's get at 'er.
Agree with you other sausage roll eaters in that Jake is awesome but needs to tamp down on the emotional outbursts regarding refs. If he were to be captain, he should make sure in the first week that when he barks, the team listen.
On the plus side, it gives him a reason to get back at the refs.
Refs: Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake! Jake!
Jake (c): Refs! Refs! Refs! Refs!Refs! Refs!Refs! Refs!Refs! Refs!Refs! Refs!Refs! Refs!

Big weekend ??

I discriminate indiscriminately
I like it... Jake seems to be a natural leader and DCE needs to concentrate on his own game...
win/win... Well probably still loss/loss...
So many rumours come from here , we are the go to place for Journo’s.

I'm hoping DCE is sacked as captain and spits the dummy and leaves the club to free up the cap.
Oh it's nice to dream when will this dce,foran and hasler nightmare end.

100% you can see him spit the dummy if the captaincy is taken from him. Would be a great result for the club if he did and bailed to the Dogs.

I think if he took a pay cut there would be less pressure to perform..but then again there would be pressure from home. I could see him parting with captaincy but not the mighty $$$.
I've heard he's so tight that if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, in two weeks you'd have a diamond.
Who gets it doesn’t matter. The players who get picked each week aren’t good enough and are coached to play a different game to everyone else.
Until that changes it is just rearranging the deckchairs on the titanic and probably causes more issues in the playing group.And whether he has the C or not DCE knows our results are down to him because of his salary and position as playmaker.Pressure doesn’t go away.
Until the main issues are fixed we are locked in a four way battle for the spoon. That’s the reality. Changing a captain when it’s hard to even identify someone who deserves to get picked each week changes nothing.
One thing that actually may relieve some PLAYING pressure is picking him at 9.Nothing to lose , suits his game and if we remain a rabble we lose nothing and Shuster at least gets to play 6 for experience.

Well said Sparty
Hindy was a great player and now he has become a greater comedian
Jake inspires with his tackling full stop .
Jake does not inspire with big hard running carries gaining big meters
Jake has become very predictable under Des and so have all our other players
Under Des the Manly captain and the crew look all lost as sea
Des needs to start doing his job by lifting all his players as one so they can finally get the bloody job done and start winning !!!
