Not too dis similar to most years depth wise I reckon.
Hopefully the later numbers come into the team and surprise us and become reliable.
Guys like Hanley, Halsall and McDonnell going strips out some depth and also means the Reserves team won’t be as experienced but if they’re not playing and it’s holding their careers back, you can’t blame them for wanting new opportunities or us for deciding to save the money and push younger players up the pecking order.
The worry this season is that we pick up 5 or 6 early injuries and then need to over burden guys like Hill, Nsemba, Eckersley etc but if we do have a bit of luck on the injury front and we can just dip kids like those on, it’ll be interesting to see how they go. It feels like they’ve really picked out 6 or 7 young players and pinned their colours to them. I’m excited to see how they go but the circumstances of how they’re used needs fixing be correct and we’ll need some luck for that to happen.
