Quote: Hasbag "Don't want to be too negative about young lads but at present I agree with the above poster about Gardiner. Need to hope a proper strength and conditioning coach can add just a few KGs onto him.
I also just don't see it with Jebson. He's a solid defender but with the ball he just offers nothing and looks far too lightweight to make any impact running the ball in. Only seems to get 10 minutes at the end of a game so I suppose it's not exactly enough time for him to make any type of mark.'"
you can add Laidlaw to those two
all destined for lower divisions
The strategy of relying on youth to take over in two years is a fallacy
The only two who look like making it are Barron and Martin
Moy is too small and lightweight to make a full back.Be better to give him a try at halfback or nine.
Lots of hype for Charles but given his run of games i didnt see any progression in his play which was disappointing.Think next season will determine whether he kicks on.
