JLT Game 2

[PaulP]

That's very much (part of) what Bolts said post-match.
The  PS gives exposure to the youngsters, who otherwise only guess at what it takes. It challenges players to realise the real work ahead. Gone are the days one rests on ones laurels or club reputation. (Actually i think those days were over years ago). The real work has just started. WL will be just one of many measures of progress.

With that all in mind, I think its time for a nice cold drink.
That'll make reading this site all the more entertaining. It's just a trial run for the kids. No more no less. Whilst the youngsters get exposure some of the seniors get exposed. This is gold for the development crew and selectors alike.

Yes - whilst the last fortnight has been lousy, we should really be holding fire until a few weeks into the real season.
