| just an alternative thought but maybe fitz has had a say in the captaincy issue. perhaps he has said he dosnt want the role, leaving radford as club captain to do corporate events, photocalls etc, whilst on the field he (fitz) will emerge a a natural leader. other than this issue, i can see no other possible candidate for the job than fitz

You mean like we have done for the last 2 seasons but everyone still gets on Radders back?
FWIW i agree, but Radders will remain an easy target for some if we do, i think he can do without the stick tbf.

| Guy clearly understands the psychology behind the game at this level and is a legend in the NRL. I hope and I'm sure it can translate to Hull FC.

I reckon Fitz or Long will get the captaincy and Fitz must be the favourite out of the 2.

Yer know what you mean, i think i'll fawn over the likes of Kingy and Tickle who set such a good example with their been there, done that, earned respect, and won every honour in the game attitude - oh wait a minute........ Think i'll be fawning over Fitzy thanks Cindy. What else you got to moan about??

I would be very surprised if either of those players would accept the captaincy in their first season at a new club. It will be hard enough for both players as it is, for differing reasons, without the added pressure of captaincy.

I reckon to Fitz the leadership thing comes naturally anyway especially on the field.

Fitzgibbon will be like Galea. He might not have the captains armband but everybody will know he runs the team anyway.

| doesnt matter who is named captain, I have absolutely no doubt what so ever that the likes of Fitz and co will be a force in the dressing room, I would also hazzard a guess that who ever is captain will be rocketed if they dont produce it as well!!

I would expect he does, lets be honest non of these players comeover for the love of the club they are going to. Hull will have offered him a deal that was good enough to bring him to the country.
He seems like a very respected, professional player who has been very loyal to his club. He will no doubt be a great influence on the younger lads in your squad and barring any injuries a good addition to your squad.
I'd be shocked if Long wasn't your captain next year, he has the ego and presence for this role and think it will be a statement by Agar that this is his team this year and this is the man to lead it..
It is true what cindy says tho', many a big name has gone into a team and flopped, will be an interesting year next year.

| This guy is a natural leader, and will be shoe-in for the captains armband.
Watching the roosters vid, he comes across as a intelligent, humble, down to earth person. Fitzy has a legacy behind him through hardwork and dedication.Like others have said lets see how he goes but maybe a extension will be in order, cant wait to see him in the shirt.
Think i've decided who im gonna get on the back of my shirt.
Come on u ulllaaaaaaa

| I feel very privileged that a player of his experience, stature and authority will be wearing the black and white shortly. If he wants the captaincy he should get it.
