No one. O'L is blatantly the best option

I named 4 on the other age who are [iarguabley[/i better.

He's the best loose forward so including second rowers is slightly pointless.

Rangi Chase

Sinfield is Super League's finest captain. If McBanana has resolved that he is going to pick him over the next two years then he is the only choice for this role.

ellis
sam burgess
westwood
hock


to name just a few

Graham for me

Plenty of VC options that can covered the mid-season Exiles games by Graham for the World Cup

Ellis would naturally attract some votes as he has been a top player in both SL and NRL but I don't see him as a Captain.

I'd go with O'Loughlin for the next Exiles game and then Ellis to get it at the end of the season when he comes back.

He was captain at Wakey once upon a time

Lockers.

O'Loughlin for me

Roby,leads by example and does play the full 80 minutes.

I'd say Graham.

Ellis/Roby.

Graham for me, like tohers have said O'loughlin sin't GURANTEED to be in the starting line up. For me Roby is too quiet and i don't think Tomkins is quite mature enough yet, let him carry on what he's doing. Maybe give him VC.

But Mcnamara will go against eveyrbody and choose Sinfield as he is hell bent on seeing him in an England shirt.

Some bizarre stuff on here about Lockers. Whether or not he'd make the best captain is a matter for debate but as far as LFs go he is easily the best in Britain at the moment and is therefore as guaranteed as anyone to get a starting spot.

Would he be as good in the second row as Hock or Ellis, probably not. But he is a LF, not a second rower! If we had two second rowers better than Hock at Wigan (or for England) I still wouldn't want him playing 13 ahead of Lockers.

If Sinfield is playing he should be captain - he's clearly the best captain in Super League - the best candidates if he's not playing are all playing down under which brings its own problems. I've never particularly rated O'Loughlin, I don't think Tomkins is captaincy material and I'd rather leave Roby to do what he does best without thinking about anything else, so long term you'd have to say Graham and possibly Burgess are the stand out candidates.

Unless Sinfield's on the pitch.

Personally i would have Roby as captain with ellis and o'loughlin as vice! However I think Sinfield is the best captain we could chose but imo he shouldnt be in the team, on current form at least. But for some strange reason he is continually picked at 6 ahead of better options such as lomax, mcguire, ratchford and widdop he should be captain.

Graham.

You can't have a captain who's based in the NRL.

Spot on. That is why Lockers is the favourite. He is the only British based captain of a club who will be certain to play 80mins for England if he is fit.

I'm sorry but Sinfield is not certain to be in the England team, he shouldn't even be in now! Not as good as Lockers at 13 and not good enough to play 6 against Aus and NZ.

is lockers certain to be in the england side though?......mcnamara likes playing burgess at 13 when he's fit.

How do work that one out? I don't dispute that he's a good captain but to say he's clearly the best when he's captaining an underperforming side to mid-table obscurity is just daft.

Because he's the single most important reason why the Rhino's have been the best team in the competition for eight years. Not daft really, just obvious. Name me a current captain who's had anything even remotely approaching the impact Sinfield's had.

O’loughlin is 29 and has fewer caps than Tomkins, Where has this ‘guaranteed to start and play 80mins’ myth come from?

There are 6 guaranteed players in an England squad, 2 in Burgess and Graham are in the NRL, 1 is but wont be, but is a little ‘old guard’ in Ellis, one in Ryan Hall is a winger.

Which leaves two, one has undoubted quality but has alienated a large proportion of the fanbase and doesn’t have a particularly positive reputation with some other players, which should discount Tomkins,

Lastly we have a top class, 80minute hooker, who is at the coal face constantly, who has been massively committed to England, has led by example, has a conducted himself with great professionalism throughout his career and is about to come into his peak, Roby is the obvious answer
