Sunday night is the best time to pick a captain for the following week
In all seriousness, I'm seriously looking at going the risky play and putting the armband on Munster against the Titans. Logic would dictate to go for CS9 instead for his goal kicking but I reckon he'll get an early shower. After getting pantsed by the Raiders, I reckon the Storm boys will absolutely carve up the poor Titans, and I reckon Munster goes 80+ in that. Considering that I could very well only have 16 men playing (or 15 in the worst case scenario), I might just have to swing for the fences and hope that my captaincy pick compensates for losing players.
Other captaincy options of note in my squad are:
CS9 - mentioned previously
McInnes - Super safe and is carrying that Dragons team, will get a lot of tackles against the Chooks
Cook - Loves the fast track at Suncorp, but the Broncos are no slouches either, and I doubt he'll go massive, but will be a safe pick.
Haas - Not 100% on how he'll go vs Souths but considering what he just did to Penrith I'll have to consider it
SJ - Warriors are dead in the water and he might have a point to prove against them.
Moses - The dogs aren't easy by any means but at Bankwest and kicking goals means his floor is pretty good.
Tedesco - Dragons suck and Teddy is just carving up teams, but it could be a crappy game if the weather's bad on Saturday night
Papalii - It would be the POD captain to end all POD captains but could be an absolute genius play if he gets another pie against Manly.
