Message: [QUOTE="heartly87, post: 3354032, member: 8651"] Unless Kev knew what we know now all along and that is his son is probably the best option. That comes with a stick of TnT attached. We just have to read the post in our own forum to get a hint of what even the idea of nepotism does to a side. The jersey has to be fought over so the dross can expose itself. The worst thing Kev could do would be to just put Billy in a spot right of the bat. The second worst thing Kev could do would be replace a player early in the season with Billy right of the bat. Either would look like Kev has just weaseled his son into the position. By giving Billy a utility role in game one he let the kid show his versatility and he stood out in both positions. Game two he showed enough at 5/8 to want me to see him next to Reynolds. The only other viable candidate is Mam now and anyone could understand giving him more time in cup. If Kev didn't make the jersey Gamble and Kelly's to lose than the media would of had a field day. The players may have not accepted it and the fan base would have let their displeasure known. I think these trials have been used very wisely, this is exactly what the trials are for. While the media talks about us not knowing our halfs, most teams have just used these games to play second tier players and to blood rookies. [/QUOTE]
