The ACT Brumbies have endorsed Stephen Moore's Wallabies captaincy potential. Coach Stephen Larkham said the 91-Test hooker is the ''ideal man'' to lead Australia to a successful World Cup campaign next year.

Outgoing Test skipper Ben Mowen says he will be ''insanely jealous'' when the Wallabies run out in the series opener in Brisbane on Saturday night, but insists he is ''content'' with his decision to quit the role to move his career to France at the end of the year.

Highly respected Moore will get his chance to lead the Wallabies almost a decade after starting his Test career. Larkham believes the 31-year-old is suited to a leadership role.
