I am really convinced that you are right about this.Hope we can give the best ones a minimum of a year in reserve grade before using them in firsts
I am really convinced that you are right about this.
From time to time however you do see a player like Lehi Hopoate who makes me eat my words. Maybe outside backs are different? Dunno.
There can definitely be an initial boom from a young player but I think over a course of a career it's better to have more games in cup than in Flegg.
It's only 2 examples (extremely small sample size) but the careers of Tepai Moeroa and Marata Niukore. I'm sure someone will come along and tell me how wrong I am with numerous other examples but right now those are the 2 I'm thinking of.
The clubs test their players throughout the season so they have a good grasp of where the players are physically. I'd say that determines the opportunities they get.which is the reason why im So baffled as to why the club has chosen not to give Tuivaiti a run in reserves when he’ll be part of our T30 next year…
oh and Twidle is another that should of played Reggie’s this year.
