No Simmo, Doc, Murph, Gibbs, Krooz. Today is a good reason why you don't play too many kids at once. Bolts stated in the after match comments :
"There's some young kids who couldn't hold on for more than a quarter and a half today, but we'll challenge them to do that.
"For them to get better, we need to expose them to develop them. Within that, we will challenge (the things) they need to improve on."
The Aints were missing just as many of their starting 22, so who's out is no excuse.
In any case, who is who and who is in or out doesn't stop players making an effort even if it's just for their own self-respect. But I didn't see any self-respect, pride or professionalism, which is a massive worry!
