Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3103135, member: 9853"] The Courier Mail's [B]Chris Honnery[/B] asks [B]Ben Ikin [/B]why [B]Alex Glenn[/B], and not say, [B]Matt Lodge[/B]? “He’s a terrific player. He consistently delivers. He’s highly respected by all his teammates. He speaks well, leads well, plays well. He’s a good human being. It’s a really clever choice. I’m a huge Darius Boyd fan. If they were going to shift away from him, Alex Glenn was the best choice. The fascinating thing in this, I don’t think you can talk about the leadership succession at the Broncos as seamless. It’s been a really lumpy journey. It looked like he was entertaining deals elsewhere including the Penrith Panthers but if a week is a long time in rugby league, then what happens in 12 months is incredible. However they got there, I think they’ve made the right decision in the end. Sometimes it’s not about how you get there, but about making the right decision in the end.” “Darius did a terrific job as captain over the last 12 months in challenging times. But one thing I saw throughout the year was that for whatever reason there was a lot of external noise and pressure around Darius. Darius is a legend of our club and a legend of our game … and I just wanted to take some of those commitments away. He doesn’t need to do all the external things that a club captain has to do.” McHunt [/QUOTE]
