Quote: Mugwump "You've listed six players. I could replace half of them with established players (Foster, Makinson & Gaskell). Two more I could swap for players who possess genuine form - Swift & Jones.
Hardly a torrent of wet-behind-the-ears newbies.
Let's be honest - you're making this up.'"
So.... Your backline for the rest of the season would, I assume, be something like:
Ashe
Makinson
Jones
Foster
Swift
Gaskell
Lomax
All you would achieve by playing that lot for the rest of the season would be:
a. Make a lot of senior players who (whether you like it or not) will feature strongly under Brown very unhappy and increase personal tensions in an already stuggling squad.
b. Kill the confidence and possibly entire future career of half a dozen young players as they were smashed into oblivion every other week.
c. Have the RLFans server melting with the number of rabid posts from Saints fans complaining over why we were losing most weeks, playing so many inexperienced kids together, giving away so many soft tries out wide as a result and doing nothing about it, and throwing away our otherwise nailed-on top 8 place.
