Quote: bren2k "You can't win anything with kids - look at Cas' recent form; they were lauded for the young local lads in their team and it doesn't seem to be paying dividends for them.
Unless they're an exceptional and freakish talent, like Sam Tomkins, young lads need to be brought through in a planned and structured way, not chucked into the grind of weekly SL while the coach crosses his fingers and hopes for the best; that's the best way to ruin a promising talent.
As it stands, I'd take Sykes - experienced, pretty reliable, a good boot and no need to do too much reorganising to accomodate him.'"
I agree. Cas have some great kids but you can't do it with too many. Need to bring in slowly not as an emergency.
Goal kicker is valuable to us. Sakes will fit the bill. I feel a bit for whomever would be dropped but that's how it goes.
