Think it’s more to do with giving them game time against men rather than kicking heels in an occasional reserves match.'"
Generally when they're not ready. A big risk going into next season with an 2 hookers who have barely played a first grade game between them. A poor recruitment decision for me in a critical position. It may be OK but more likely not. We'd have been better paying those 2 salaries on one better quality player with balmforth as back up and young hodgson coming in occasionally if needed
