Wigan Warriors • Re: Smith and Smithies
We’re asking too much of these young players for me. A top side carries a couple of really promising youngsters in their 17, whereas we’re including 6 or 7 every week. Yes they’re very good but they still need to be lead by the experience around them, especially in the front row.
Lammy really worries me when it comes to what he’s looking for in a young ‘middle’. He’s said again after the game today that Smithies is a middle player and now Manfredi is back, he can stop playing out of position. The last thing we need is another young grafter in the middle. He’s a great young player but he needs time in the second row whilst he builds up his physical attributes in the gym. We need a couple of brick s*it houses in the middle to give these brilliant kids the chance to make their way. We’re damaging not only our present but also our future at the minute by flogging these kids.
