I think considering what Nicks has to work with he is doing a good job.
He has the worst coaching department in the nation and the worst list going around at the very beginning of a long-term rebuild. It will be a while before we have enough talent to push through back to the 8 because of our lack of investment in the future.
During the past 5 years we have only allowed a very small trickle of young players into the team and usually they would serve a year or two apprenticeship in the seconds. This year we are playing them all in the firsts as we have no other choice but to see what we have got.
Yes I wish Nicks gave the youngsters more of a prominent role on the field at expense of proven mediocre players (Crouch x2) but on the whole he is playing the players we want to see. I hope to see more of Davis, Stengle & Schoenberg throughout the year and work out who we want to keep persisting with.
