I agree with this.
I know it is important to rest players at the right time and it is good that a lot of the youngsters have had good experience this year so if they are needed in a big game at the back end of the season they should be ready.
Having said that, we do seem to swap the team so much this season that it does worry me in terms of consistency. There have been times in the last few games when we have looked a little flat in attack and void of ideas, unlike last season when we unlocked defences with ease.
I do wonder if this is because the team has been messed with a little too much.
....but these are just the concerns of a fan. Tony Smith has proved time and time again that he knows best so we just have to leave it to him and I'm sure the grand final success will eventually come.
