Thats been Trinity's problem, they would rather play ineffective seniors players out of position or average to poor imports than give a young lad a chance. Their hand may be forced next year somewhat which may mean they all get a chance at the same time. This could be the making of them or go against them, especially as its relegation year too. The ideal time to develop was over the last 6 years of relative SL safety. Its probably too late now but Wildie, Cowling and Kay ought to be given new contracts. Lee Smith's salary probably pays for at least two of them, I would've let him go.

Different players and different development system.
Just playing them won't automatically make the great.

Not playing them isn't going to make them great either. Besides at this stage we don't need them to be great, just good enough to compete in SL, othet than a Tomkins or a Burgess they're unlikely to be great until their mid to late twenties.
