Our club is in the red. Lets hope we can balance the books and get rid of the duds.

Lets hope danny limps throught the year because casey has already said he will retain him all year.

So play the kids, that is what we hope and pray for

Cairo, play all the kids at the end of the season when and if the season is gone.

Can't burn out young ones like Hartigan, Raines, Roach etc too early. Nothing wrong with having a solid season in the 2s and maybe bring up a couple when they're in form.

To just play for the rest of the season is just totally stupid. These guys are just kids, who need to build up and develop their bodies, skills and confidence.

Hartigan looks really promising, but even he'll have bad weeks. Just because they're new and sound exciting, they've still got to do the hard yards.

the ids will be played when theyve damned well earnt a game ...what kind of benchmark is it to hand out free senior games to anyone.....a kid needs to be performing week in week out in the ressies ..then they pick themselves i dont see anyone has done that to date....

Putting up kids too ealry destroys careers refer banik et al
