In a tension-filled meeting the Relics have delivered Waz the captain-coach mantle for 2012.
This was the surprise outcome after the Axe moved a no-confidence motion earlier in the meeting. The knives were out! Whilst the no-confidence vote was a secret affair it is believed that the "Empire Bay Tavern" voting block carried the clearly nervous Waz to victory.
With restored confidence Waz nominated himself for captain and after an impassioned plea to fellow Relics about what he would bring to the team he was duly elected.
Sources close to the team believe that "sweeteners" were offered to Sulo and the Axe by Waz as reward for them to stand down leaving him as the only nomination. Expect Sulo and Axe to get plenty of game time in season 2012!
Congratulations to Waz on his election.
In his acceptance speech Waz launched into a spirited tirade about his expectations. He eye-balled his team. Axe and Smokey were told to ditch the fags. Becks was told to lose 30kgs. Head, Blackbeard and Ball were instructed to get haircuts. Dallas was installed as GK and the team was warned to expect a back to basics approach to training!
Waz re-affirmed his commitment to a cutting edge, contemporary approach to coaching and also shared some thoughts on some key plays the Relics will be using in 2012.
