[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 1221250, member: 73144"] What did people think of Itoje's first campaign as skipper? Like Borthwick it's 4 wins out of 5, but could easily have been 2. For the most part he managed the refs pretty well which is a big step forward (and definitely from the pre George era). Personal performances were good if not stellar, blighted as always by pens. Didn't understand why he / we were so passive in lineouts in the first couple of games or what on earth we were playing at v Sco. I guess my perennially mixed feelings are summed up quite well in that he's probably simultaneously won the Lions captaincy while losing his status as our premier lock to Chessum. [/QUOTE]
