A coach must both coach for the win and have an eye on the future. When a team plays poorly, he must focus more on building. When it's winning, he sticks to the formula that's earning the victories. So, what's wrong with building in our situation?

Might add a year or so for talls, but yeah, seems about right.

Good players can have form slumps but those that tease and tease and tease really need to be screwed off.

Jordan Russellesque.

Mind you no one should be given a game, and thats where it all falls over.

These guys as much as everyone thinks they are holding up developement, are putting pressure on the youngsters to earn a game, and that cannot be a bad thing.

It's a bad thing when you consider we need to expedite the development of these youngsters by playing them collectively as many times as possible, which is what a rebuild is all about.
Ignorance is bliss.
