There is a limit of how many young bodies you can play but I have the feeling the coach is reluctant to play players who in his mind have had their cards marked for the future. Only with a lot of injuries do I expect the likes of Armfield, Boekhorst, Graham, Jones, Jakcsh to get games...and then as we saw with Kerridge and Palmer they wont be in the team long if its keeping in form youth out...

Overall I think you are dead right EB. The non strategics will only be used sparingly as cover for youth rotations where necessary. Having said that I think we may see one or two this week.
Reality always wins in the end.
