but does Josh offer more than McCowatt or Waine? id like to see Waine offered the same chances tbh as he is clearly more skillfull and arguably just as quick.
My biggest fear is that we have another Rojas/Boyd situation developing.
El Grap has already answered in detail; so I will only add one more point without repeating. You would be taking a big risk by staking your season's chances on a pair of youngsters as starters. Sotirio is a regular starter now and has the stamina to get through a full game. Overusing McCowatt and Waine would risks an injury to either or both (think Fenton).
Also, starting a young player requires them reading a game early on (expect a lot of shouting from Talay on the sidelines in such case). Instead it is much easier for Talay or rather for Greenie to sit through first half with a youngster like Waine and say "if this happens, then that's what you would need to do" etc.
