[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 991686, member: 73144"] In all 2 of the midweek matches you mean? SA 21 will be a demi tour....bloody ridiculous scheduling. But that would be an excellent shout. He’d keep the non test players honest and that’s always important. AWJ is on the downward slope in pure playing terms, but he does seem able to galvanise those around him and you have to look at the complete package. But he’s not a shoe in for the test team now, so shouldn’t be tour captain. Of the other home nations captains only Hogg likely to be a nailed on starter. Sexton now unlikely, Faz probable but I don’t think the captaincy would sit well with him. Many prefer a forward as captain, maybe stars are aligning for Itoje? [/QUOTE]
