[QUOTE="ranger, post: 370650, member: 40555"] Its not a matter of whether he is [I]good enough[/I]. He is simply far too young to start, why wont people realise that if you just throw young first fives into the fire they burn.. If Jospeh does decide to start the season with Lima at 10 it just confirms to me why he shouldn't have got the job. Also, yes Lima played first five last year like Robinson, but unlike Robinson Lima is only 19! He hasn't even been to the U20 WC before. Everyones talking up Bleyendaal (who is a year and a half older and a hell of a lot more experienced) and look how he is being managed. Hes the 3rd string first five, in the squad to learn from the other players and will only be given opportunities very late in the piece. Thats how it should be done. The Highlanders also have Ben Smith and George Pisi to cover fullback. [/QUOTE]
