Up front we don’t need to worry - just get rid of Watson, and focus on Rogerson. Yeah he hasn’t been impressive this season for the Weenix, but he can play anywhere on the front three, he’s young, and very promising and he won’t get anywhere rotting in the reserves. Singh can do a job on the wings as well, and imo he’s one of the most promising youngsters in Nix history (not a difficult list to be on to be frank). Also, we’re the third highest scorers in the league - something’s obviously clicking. 

We are the only professional pathway for kids in NZ after all - we should be making the most of that

So he's been poor at a lower level - but you think he's very promising and should be given 1st team football now? On what basis do you think he will step up?

Having him training with the first team might improve him, it might not. For me, definitely offers more than a certain someone with a touch akin to throwing a tennis ball in a nuclear blast.

He showed potential in his youth, now he's almost 20. It's now or never, and obviously Watson isn't working right now - why not chuck in Logan? Maybe it's just because I'm a huge opposer of target men. Let Watson kick it in the Handy and see how he does there

I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure the first team and WeeNix train together anyway.

Heaps of players show potential as teenagers but if Rogerson's not a decent Handy player by 20 he's not good enough to go into the first team, potential or not. Watson has proven himself at Handy level already too https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/hamish-watson/leis...
