Is Lewis Wing the wrong captain?

This is not a rant about Lewis being poor or at fault for anything. He’s a great player with brilliant moments and key contributions and some stunning goals.

My point is that, since Lewis became club captain, we have shaped the team around him and he has played deeper. This coincides with us having a weak underbelly and an inconsistent midfield where the partnerships aren’t gelling. The Wing / Savage pairing has had issues and Wing / Rino or Wing / Fraser also not gelling.
And the worst thing is the continued saga of conceding injury time goals from which we either lose 2 or 3 points. I think that’s an on-the-pitch-leadership issue. It wouldn’t have happened with someone like Parky on the pitch.
Also noteworthy is that Pereira is the one doing the team talks in the pre-match huddle.
Is that captain material?

Perhaps we need to relieve Wing of the pressure of being captain and put him further up the pitch and sit Rino or Fraser in a more defensive role. Or try playing Rino and Savage in the middle and resting Lewis for a game.

Thoughts?
