[QUOTE="Hanley!, post: 917652, member: 77015"] O'Connell was 35 during the last World Cup, but more importantly he was still a nailed on starter in a way that Best doesn't seem to be anymore. I have no problem with Best starting because I think he's class, but if his form or fitness isn't quite right we have enough depth to start someone else. O'Mahony and Sexton make more sense to me as captains from the 2019 Six Nations onward, because I think they're going to be nailed on starters for the next year provided they don't pick up an injury.
