Well Rhys Evans is now in the tier 1 category of 25, along with GOB, so we need to view these players as first team pool now. That's a bit tough on Evans because he has not played a lot of games, but if either underperform, they can be expected to be 'rested' I suspect.
Outside of this we have seen Currie and Dwyer. I think both have actually done very well. Currie is only just 18 and slotted in well in the second row, whist Dwyer has had a longer run due to Monas knee injury. Unless these players are tested at this level we will never know if they can make it. So TS is going to have to pick his games, ignore the criticism and get on with it. I think we already have 8 ? Contracts up at the end of the year and an 'ageing population' of players. If I were a betting man I might think that TS is deferring the problem of player replacement because he is likely to be gone himself at the end of 2013. He only really needs a grand final for his CV to finish it off.

Mike Cooper, i was expecting more from him this year now that he has a fair bit of experience under his belt, ive been disappointed with what ive seen of him this year. Paul Wood, sometimes he can be decent but he can also be frustrating as well especially with his ball handling.

Hill was a bit off the pace (unusually for him), Ratch didn't do much of note, Hodge went off although I would say it was between him and Tyke for MOM.
Congratulations on calling someone a moron for disagreeing with you btw.

At the moment, we have better/more experienced players in those postions.
To "throw" these youngsters in at such a crucial time in the season, will (more than likely) be folly.
One bad game, does not a bad team, make.'"
That's the thing. Most of the time young players get into teams because a first team player in their position has got an injury. It's the same for most youngsters. But if nobody has an injury in that position or there is someone else higher up in the pecking order, the youngster wont get in.
With time and patience, if they're good enough, they'll cement their place in the side at some point.

Agree with this totally, only downside is the younger is always compared to he previous player in their position, for instance Gaz Obrian will always be compared to Briers, Ratchford to Hodgeson etc and woe be tide if they make an error whilst they are learning/gaining experience

Did you watch the match or have you just named those 3 players because they are usually mentioned for MOM. Hill wasn't at his best. Hodgson went off Injured and Ratchford didn't see much ball. McCarthy was the best of a bad bunch but ignoring that game he has been in great form for a number of months anyway.
