I am more worried about how Cronk will handle playing without his #9 refereeing the games

Yes.... The big unknown variable in the equation. Will be very interesting to watch. Can't wait !

I wish Cronk was the captain.. as much as I like him,it’s painful listening to Boyd speak.

You can already see the improvement with having Cronk around, which is a significant step up from the mumbling of JuJu in the past.

It’s tough to predict because he’s a stabilising player rather than a Carney/Johns/Thurston...etc.

My prediction is that this will lead to less penalties because he is gonna tell everybody to calm the fark down.

However, I am worried that he wont be so calm when things don’t go his way. Cam Smith is known for being professional but he is one of the worst losers out there... if he wasn’t Cam Smith then he woulda been penalised several times last year (at key moments) for giving the refs lip. Also, he woulda been sent off multiple times for touching the refs. My point? It is easy to look calm when things are going your way. I worry that Cronk will be a bit of a princess when he starts realising that we don’t get away with anything, and often get harsh calls going against us for no reason.
