2017 Brisbane Broncos Captain

[Astro]

So i guess now is as good a time as any.

Who do you think will lead the broncos out in 2017 and why?

And will they retire at the end of the season...

 

[Super Freak]

Darius Boyd. Because he was one of the candidates for the captaincy this year.

And no. He won't retire at the end of the 2017 season.

 

[mitch222]

Boyd seems to have taken on a much bigger leadership role this year and is actually giving a lot more better interviews these days. Also he is talking a lot more on the field too.

 

[Foordy]

I would have Boyd as the front runner at this stage.

with Ben Hunt as my second choice

 

[talanoa]

its the kiss of death.. maybe give it to thaiday.. haha

 

[austin71]

its the kiss of death.. maybe give it to thaiday.. haha

Bahaha I agree. Boyd makes sense though. His actions on the field make him the best choice IMO

 

[Kimlo]

Give it to Thaiday so he can retire next year.

 

[Alec]

Thaiday if the trend continues.
Boyd if being serious.

 

[coreyh88]

I like the sound of the thaiday reasoning but we would be no chance next year if we did. Refs hate him.

 

[Unbreakable]

Boyd or McCullough are the only logical options.

 

[Astro]

My favorite would be Boyd. I think he has matured so much in the last 2 years since returning home. He speaks well to the media these days and from what i can tell he is already a leader in the club.

One thing i like in a captain is that they are on the field for 80mins. So who ever gets it i hope they are an 80min player.

Also while we are on the subject of taking over from parker. I would assume kahu will take full time kicking duties?

 

[animal eater]

McCoullough for sure. I think he is a calm head, he presents well and we have seen the team struggles without him. I think Boyd doesn't need the extra stress.

 

[Nashy]

Has to be Boyd. So given that seems to be what everyone expects, I completely expect our smart ass coach to bring back Stu Kelly and make him captain or something.

My pick is...Josh McGuire. He is a leader, brilliant player and has a big media profile. But it will be Boyd.

 

[tommy]

Josh McGuire or McCullough would be good picks but I think Boyd will get it. I think it should go to someone who has been with the club the whole time not Boyd.

 

[mrslong]

Hodges wasn't with the club the whole time. Either was Tallis.

Boyd is the front runner for sure. He's a Locky style leader on the field, never one to blow up or back chat the refs, just goes about business. A solid choice.

Boyd or Hunt
