Indeed. So if they are wanting to build up his fitness, they introduce him for longer spells in the first team not have him playing 80 minutes against lesser opposition. How does playing against lads smaller than him build up his ability to play against bigger blokes exactly?
I have played a lot of sport, thanks for asking.

We aren't discussing his ability to play against size, we're discussing his fitness. You simply can't put him in the first team for close to 80 minutes, you can in the U19's. In terms of FITNESS, which is pretty much an obsession in my life, 80 minutes in the U19's is far, far more beneficial than 20-30 in the first team.
Also, I didn't ask how much sport you played, I'm sure you have participated in a number of sports as have I. My question was, what is your first hand experience of having a long term injury and than working back to full match fitness in a game of Rugby League. That is the point we are discussing here.
Feel free to completely avoid the exact question again though, it'll confirm to me you have no experience of it and are talking out of your backside.
