Since our NT plays approx 10 times a year and we all know that this is not enough time to make your team gel and to iron some mistakes out of the way they play, well an NT coach doesnt have as much time as a club coach to stamp his style of game onto the players is what it comes down to.
The first 11 doesnt get a chance to šplay together all that often.
This question has been bugging me for some time and i am in two minds about what the right thing to do is
(Well lets say that I am in two minds due to the fact that I can see the advantages of both options)
a) Should you play your strongest team as much as possible to give them the experience of playing together and get some things gelling?
b) Should you play with your reserves to give them match practise and to see what they can offer you as a team (a team that you wouldnt usually play as your strongest)
Could we please have a poll on this as it is a question that will come up before, during and after our game vs Scotland and in the friendlies just before the EC.
