To me it doesn't seem like a lot of your young lads haven't come on as expected, the only one making real strides is Sam gray.
Its a fair call. Issue compounded by the fact we have traded away our first pick in the last 2 drafts (we still got a first rounder in the Polec deal).
Sam is starting to get on my nerves too. Can win a truckload of the footy (last weekend the exception), but is a culprit of the "kick and hope", which is a killer when you are structuring a press around maintaining possession.
We didn't have a Maggies game last weekend, but against the roosters we had Snelling pick up 24 touches and 2 goals, Howard collect 11 touches and 2 goals, O'Shea with 20 touches, Mitchell with 26 touches and Colquhoun with 30.
There is a little bit of pressure from down below but as you said, not much youth development.
