Not sure captaincy should be given to a player to bring them out of their shell. IMO, Burton is a future captain but nowhere near ready in 23 and it would hamper his development as a playmaker. We need him to focus on his development as a 6 and not worry about captaining the sideShould be burto. Bring him out of his shell let him run the team hopefully gives him a lot more confidence aswell
Ha! Funny, as I just mentioned Burton coming out of his shell in response to his Insta shout out to the fans video. He seems to have matured a bit, and got more relaxed with being a rising star. Probably still too early to be captain though, but I have faith that Ciro Et al will make the right call.Not sure captaincy should be given to a player to bring them out of their shell.

Confidence will bring him out of his shell. Being a captain and leader will give him confidence.Not sure captaincy should be given to a player to bring them out of their shell.

I think Burton has a huge year. If he had a half to share the attacking load with, he would go even better. Having a player like Kiks outside him will give him time, space and a target. Will be good for JAC and who ever is lucky enough to play centre on that side. As the Bulldogs are building IMO captaincy would put unnecessary pressure on him. Fox for me is the clear leader of the squad.Confidence will bring him out of his shell. Being a captain and leader will give him confidence.
I’m pretty sure one of the boys said burto has been talking up a lot more at training and showing leadership. Good signs for him. Hopefully a big year
Yeah but I’ve always thought captain should be a spine player.I think Burton has a huge year. If he had a half to share the attacking load with, he would go even better.

Very good point! I didn’t think of this but I’d actually wanna watch them if he was involved.Fox as captain would be worth it just for the hilarious post game press conferences alone.
Yeh braaaaFox as captain would be worth it just for the hilarious post game press conferences alone.
add RFM to that list.Whilst Kiks has experience, im not sure i want him to be the spokesman for our teamFox
Mahoney
Burton
Kiks
Can't complain out of those four, they'll lead well.
He's a great club ambassador, however I'm not sure about captain. Need someone who toes the line and a bit cheeky.Rfm has to be a big contender surely
