The other double captains include at least one back who will always be on the field.

And the premier teams include a spine player as the spine should be running the team.
 
The Storm had J-Brom and Welch as co captains only a few years ago, I don’t think it will be too too big of deal

I personally think its pretty clear that Barnett will “actually” be the captain- He will be the one the refs will speak to on the field, he will be the one in the post game presser, he will be the one with the authority to challenge calls. Same as Yeo is at the Panthers despite being “co-captain”

Thats not to take away from Fish, but in practice he is a vice captain with the prestige and command of the team of a captain proper
 
Terrible decision by Andrew Webster he can't make a decision on captain.

We have two head coaches every weekend in the coaching box in Webster and Agar.

We have Another head coach running our development pathway in Andrew McFadden.

We have been doing things differently under the new owner.

We need the experience of both men, we need the Aussie spirit in this side, and we need the Mana Maori.

It is the best move this club has made in decades. Rather than place one great man above another great man they have made them both generals. Nothing to see here.
