[QUOTE="racer0bv, post: 607547, member: 63863"] Very true, we had a game once when both the captain and the vice-captain were unavailable so we had one of the older(experienced) players (a prop) appointed as captain. Even if the scrum listened to him (as they did in every game, since he was the leader of the pack) he had limited influence to the 3/4 line, they did not see him as their leader on the pitch and struggled a bit. SO besides the respect of the team, the captain has to have the knowledge of all the areas of the game and he should be an example regarding discipline. [/QUOTE]
