The Nix reserve team really getting tested for depth. Out of the team that played central league U17 boys comp. At least 4 or 5 have been promoted to first team. And good question where is Duggan? 
So it's going to be tough for a young team. But I guess that is what its about for this team. Young players showing if they can step up and complete with some of the better teams in the country.
That NZ age group. Current NZ U19's. Has a lot of talent in midfield, but unusually for a NZ age group team are not so strong defensively I thought watching them at U17 level a few years ago. Some of those girls are in this Nix team. This is probably the type of game-time they need to lift the level they are playing at leading into next years U20 world cup. Shame this NL comp is so short.
