I haven't felt the need to comment on this forum until now - I'm not taking sides but I agree with what Zeus is saying with the majority of stuff. I haven't got any senior NT experience but just by looking at the roster, what are you really expecting to achieve? In my opinion and this is no dig at anyone, but this is probably the worst senior team I've seen us have since I started playing this game again. I think we all have to realise that we, as a community, are in a transitional period at the moment until we can become a force again but the future is bright. Staples looks a great prospect, as do Ellis, Bryant and Singh and what's more is we've still got a few seasons left on Mac and Innes who are undoubtedly the forefront of this team.

Additionally, we've got a few players coming from the U21 squad who are excellent for their current age and could provide great service to the NT later in their career; for example Mark Halflife, Thomas Galloway, George Storie and Elliot Lamont who is the best U21 player I've EVER seen.

Me and Zeus work behind the scenes to get training plans in place and motivate managers to train but there's only so much we can do and I can guarantee, as with the rest of the community, that we are eager to succeed on both sides of the national stage.

Maybe you're right but I don't think losing every game to gain experience would do anything for the morale of the English community and their trust in the NT coach

Ellis and Kilgour have been below GS standards most of the season and are not ready to play just yet, they are in the squad as an incentive to continue training as they are close to playing. And Gasg even at 37 is one of the better players on the squad and is arguably the best player to pull on the NT jersey ever for England until Innes peaks. You are allowed 18 players on the squad for a reason, some won't play.

We're England, if by no chance i assume you mean to win a trophy, we never really have expect for Gully's tremendous consolation run. We're a micro nation in terms of BB, we do the best we can. And i can imagine people would not be happy if i lost them merch by not playing 'best available' in terms of talent!
