Ditto Ed Curnow who is pretty much an everywhere man.
The kids were in the 60's (kennedy, DOw, SPS). If you have 4 players playing less than 3/4 of football, you are effectively using one bench spot on them each quarter meaning everyone else is significantly impacted.
It wouldn’t surprise me if our younger blokes are playing more minutes/games than their peers at other clubs.
I think that we’ve rushed players back after injury - Kennedy for example - and have had to manage their workload/TOG.
The cupboard is pretty bare and it’s worse with Jones and Fisher out.
