Because not all young players will make the grade or are ready for week in week out 1st grade competition at any given point and that is why most teams go for a mix between experience and youth rather than all one or all the other.

Why does the current Leeds squad contain Buderus, Lauitiiti, Leuluai, Donald, Webb and Eastwood when all those positions could be filled with 18 year olds?

Im not saying NEVER sign an Aussie im saying there is no point in signing one for the sake of it! If there is a shortage of players in a certain position i personally don't think we should just look for an overseas player especially when there is no threat of relegation. the players you mentioned are quality players and not just a quick fix.

A quick fix can also be a quality player, better than what you have available.

Leeds do nothing... it's good, Leeds do something it's still good. It's all good.

Threat of relegation being removed is something of a red herring when discussing Leeds' recruitment, don't you think?

Well, that will have Eastwood desperate to get here ASAP then.

It certainly might explain the delay. What day is summer this year?

Sounds like the worst of all worlds to me.

Sounds like a truly horrific phone bill to me. I hope the club aren't picking that up it could take us over the salary cap!
