So what are you saying we should leave all the under 22's in Cup until they are superstars there? These kids have already had a decent apprenticeship albeit a disrupted one since 15, they know their trade..
Averillo/BBO/Schoupp/Kiraz/Patolo/Wakeham/Topine and others will and have already been thrown into that difficult job by themselves and I can guarantee when they are a part of a better team they will be better players for it, the most part because they have had that NRL experience.
You just don’t get it .
these guys will not learn anything of value being put in first grade in this side until they cannot learn or develop anymore in lower grades .
This team is shit with bad habits and you don’t “learn “ or get better in that type environment whilst you are building and learning your game, building the body for first grade and requiring confidence in that environment .
These players need to develop their game in the level at NSW cup whilst they can .
What will kiraz learn being in first grade.. to hog the ball because the rest are useless or when there is a dropped ball to put his head down as it’s game over or if he next to a numbnut that can’t defend to race out of the line or not work with defensive structures.
Do you think Sam walker would be the player he is right now if he debut last year in the dogs side or roosters side . His confidence would have been shot and probably lost to the game or be the next flanno.
I have a 13 year old nephew , he can sidestep guess should put him in the side as he will get experience .
