Boof Lehmann is captain of the Redbacks, but with a heavy International workload, there is a possibility he won't be available for Redbacks for most if not all the season.

So who's the vice captain .... the one to captain the Redbacks for 2004-05? Graham Manou.

I just heard Manou on the radio .... plenty of yeah-nahs, and nah-yeahs, sounded as though he doesn't have a thought in his head. I don't think I can take any more, the world's gone mad.

The problem was Cameron and cosgrove were either too young or not yet entrenched in the team

Adcock has been given a contract as well in light of Flower's departure.

but I agree with the Manou decision at least for this season until Cameron and Ferguson are permanent members of both teams

Good to see Bowser get another chance. I watched him make a 70-odd in the semi-finals and I've never seen him bat better.

It's a Joke that Manou will be Captain for the majority of the year!:mad:

He averages about 17 - 18 with the bat & his glove work isn't that special! Your can't just change captain for the sake of it there needs to be a capable replacement & Manou is not it!

What a kick in the teeth for Blewett. I dare say he would not be a happy man, had it been done earlier in the season i reckon he might have left!!

I'd just like to know how Manou can look players in the eye and demand better perfomances when it is usually him who has thrown away his wicket with a silly shot, or made a classic blunder with the gloves. He shouldn't be in the team, let alone captain it.
