In light of this squad, can anyone tell me what was the point of the 49 man "train-on" squad. Was it just to let a few players know that they were not even on the radar or did the selectors seriously think that the provincial coaches would just turn their players out for a few months rest before the ARC?
I'm not just disappointed for a few of our players here. If Force players are not selected for national squads when they deserve to be it will have long term ramifications for recruitment.
