It won’t be one he’ll remember fondly, but his leadership is one of those things that doesn’t show up in the stats sheet, but is absolutely invaluable to our team.
Was about to post similar. ..... They used to say being capt of the Aust cricket team was the hardest leadership position in the country.
I think the burden of being our captain and having to be all things to all people must weigh you down eventually.
As far as I'm concerned he's got plenty of credits in the bank.

There was a bit of play when one of our blokes was stood up in a tackle at half-back, dangerous turnover territory. Might have been Houli, might have been Marlion, can't remember. Whoever it was rifled a bullet at Chimp's head a metre away and he gloved it like he was Jack Russell and we were away. I reckon Dusty would have fumbled it, along with 99.9% of players to ever play the game.

Good pick up Lee. Royalty alright but hard to see (believe) Duckwood as 2nd.

Great in close, but looks to be notably “not pushing” his body in outside sprint work... me thinks he is wising up to the old body limitations...

Captain Crunch will be there when it really matters ... Grand Final day
I'm already visualising him holding up the premiership cup with Dimma for the fourth time.

Unfortunately, he looks slow and the quintessential sign that the end is near is going to ground a lot. And he’s doing that quite a bit this year.

We’ve got a few that look like their time is near.
