Schensch for me with Balls as 2nd choice if Luke dont stick around.

Both for the same reason of keeping them at the club long term.

A Captain needs to be able to lead by example, still want Holmes as your Captain

This

Cassisi
Goodwin
Holmes

should be this

C. Cornes
S. Thompson
L. Schenscher

The best player is not necessarily the captain. The Captain of a team is someone who leads on and off the court by providing direction and motivation.

The captain must also have the respect of the other players and must have a good knowledge of the game.

For the Sixers, the options are:

Jacob, Luke, Balls, Brucey

I lean towards Jacob.

I don't like Schensch or Balls as captain, would rather see Jacob or Davo get the captaincy.
Brucey, if he stays long term would be a good captain to replace the next captain.

I cant imagine that offering the captincy would be enough to keep Schensch or Balls, so no point.

Give it to the player who the team respects, the player who sets an example in all areas including, playing, training and publicly.

Im not sure who that is..but, im sure Scotty can work it out

I can't believe Davidson has hardly been mentioned in this thread. For me, he is the obvious choice. The only thing going against him is his age. But seeing as there doesn't appear to be any other obvious choice why not give it to him for a year or two until he retires and then see who has emerged.

Davo would be a good captain for a year with Jacob as #2

balls is to quiet to be captain

I agree Davidson as Captain and for confidence sake Jacob as #2

Coz Cooper shouldn't even be on the roster! I've got nothing against Davo, but think that he's too close to retirement to make it worthwhile him being captain for a season or two

This will prove a very difficult decision, the reason being is that its Brett who is being replaced and lets face it, no one is ever going to be good enough. Brett has made it too difficult.

Pick a player who will be at the club long term. I would pick Hill, with Ballanger as my 2nd choice.

Er, Scott Thompson as captain???

Because, you know, he's such a great leader with his fantastic decision making and complete lack of off-field indiscretions.

There is a poll on Adelaidenow.

Should Luke Schenscher be the Adelaide 36ers Captain.

Currently 'YES' has 80% of the vote.

Luke is too quiet and introverted.

I don't think Boti carrying on like a pork chop calling him a "Ranga" every day in his column is doing too much good either.

If he continues the "Ranga" theme, I wonder what curious term of endearment Boti would like us to start calling him?

BTW, what does Boti have against Jacob??

He appears to downplay his achievements and is quick to point out his shortcomings. Any compliment seems to be a backhand.

Jacob has done well this season in trying circumstances and should be congratulated on his award. Rather, it has been skimmed over and downplayed.

As an aside, well done to Jared as well. It is guys like Jared that put in the hard yards and make the club run smoothly.

[Pause] Rant and rave time over...

Luke is actually fairly outgoing and sociable IMO.

Boti, the moustachioed journalist.

Boti handlebars.

I have to agree with Boti - Holmes should not be captain. If he was playing for NZ, Tigers or South he'd be coming off the bench & probably only getting 15 mins a game, which Adelaide should be looking at next season if we are to advance any further.

IMO Luke should have got Defensive Player of the year award. His no's are far superior than Holmes in terms of defensive rebounds, blocks & how many other shots he changed throughout the course of the season. He shut down Anstey twice & will hopefully be the NBL 1st Team centre.

To be honest I cannot think of many players Holmes shut down this season..........but please correct me if I am wrong

I'd go Balls; Luke or Davo as captain. All three with do a good job IMO.

I agree with ME,
"Give it to the player who the team respects, the player who sets an example in all areas including, playing, training and publicly."

And it doesn't matter if the player is going to be around for one season or six. I like Balls, Davo, or Schensh, all have the experience, and temperament for the job. Not sure about Jacob, seems to be a bit moody on the court at times.

Big Luke for sure, if he is prepared to put his name to a long term contract.
