[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 980524, member: 40658"] But preseason friendlies shouldn't be used at all as measuring basis. Most of those games have like 10-15 players on the bench, the referees don't blow every single infraction and teams don't play their normal game. It's just have the guys have a run out and test a few things and get the players more match fit. Plus, the NH teams didn't field their first choice teams for those friendlies either. So there is no comparison to make here. With that said, I think our teams will be competitive regardless of the opposition, I just don't like the idea of us abandoning the SH, just for the sake of geography. [/QUOTE]
