[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 814644, member: 40658"] AC said when he was appointed as head coach that he'll get a temporary captain and will use the leaders in the team to see who will captain the team in the long run. Strauss was actually originally appointed as captain just for the Ireland series. But because of the amount of injuries of other experienced players, he kept Strauss on for the RC as well. My personal choice for captain is Handre Pollard when he is fit and ready to play. He's still young and shows all the leadership qualities I want in a captain. I have no problem with Whiteley to run the show temporarily, but for the long run I would consider Pollard. As for Strauss' retirement, I say good for him. He wants to stay in SA, with his family and not be away from home so long with his young kids. I wish him well. [/QUOTE]
