Even when he was in his blistering POTY winning form in 2018 he still wasnt a captain.

At an old job we had a bloke called blister. He’d show up after the work was done.

I'd play Milford at 8 or 10 for 80 minutes a match. It's weird isn't it? On the captaincy issue there's no strong case for anyone and strong cases against many in the team. I like Oates and if, after talking to him I was convinced he could follow a basic plan I'd ask him to stand up and lead them. I know I know many have said he's not too bright but he might be bright enough. It might even inspire him and surprise many.
I'm not saying he's an ideal choice or a good choicd but he does have a couple things in his favour. He's onfield for the match duration, he's a very senior player and he's fought back from adversity. When someone believes in a person strange things happen sometimes. If KW asked him and told him he thinks he can do the job you never know how Oates might react.

Yep, that's true. He even set up 12 tries that year. The same amount as a Fullback in Corey Norman managed and 1 more than an absolute gun like Kodi Nikorima.

Not bad for a bloke playing half the season with one shoulder

25 games played? Must have been a hell of a long season if that was half of it?

You're right, we should definitely play that better Dummy Half that we absolutely have.
