A team is never about individuals - that's why they call it a team sport.
If Reddy was anywhere near correct, why didn't he name the 12/13 players from our best available team to prove his point that these same players should not be playing first grade.
Over the years, there's always individual players who are scorned for whatever reason - but one thing remains: every individual player who laces up footy boots has courage and enough football smarts to satisfy the coaches who select teams.
Not every player is a potential rugby league immortal - but every player deserves the respect of being the footballer he is.
And back to your question to me: the numbers within our team who are 1st grade standard by Rocket's assessment is irrelevant - the game is to play competitively. As things stand, and just look at the competition table, Wests Tigers are one of all the teams from 6 down who are each a chance of beating anyone - so maybe a champion team will ALWAYS beat a team of champions!
