In reply to: aboutmyarea.co.uk 's message, "Vital local derby for Moseley Rugby heads packed day at Billesley" on "Tue, Mar 15 2011, 17:26:41 GMT"

I haven't been for a while as frankly I`ve been fed up watching the lack of spirit from many Mose players. I watch the juniors regularly and they give their all and at least they attempt the tackle. I think Moseleys mistake is signing players in the twighlight of their careers who just want to cruise into retirement.

I would be more inclined to turn up for the first team games if I knew Smithy had ever been to a Colts game and was remotely interested in the future of Moseley.
The only time I`ve seen him there is for the first team games but not sure where we go from here as if we stay up its going to be the same again next year...

The one thing that is always recorded about the 1st XV, even when suffering heavy losses is that the players never give up and do show a lot of spirit! Also if you'd been bothering to watch you'd have noticed that there were a lot of newer younger players in the squad this season so don't know how you see "signing players comig to the end of their careers". Who are these people? Looks like abother excuse to bash the coaches. Trouble is this time youve not even bothered to check your facts before doing so!

Anyone like to list the current first teamers who came up through the colts? Let's start with Ollie Thomas, Neil Mason, Ben Pons, Jack Pons, Callum MacBurnie, Adam Caves, Mark Evans ... not a bad roll call, I think.

A number of younger players who have recently been signed with an eye to the future including

Ed Styles
Ben Maidment
Joe Munro
Mike Gillick
George Warner
Mike Maltmann
Mike Ellery

For me where we have signed "older" players it has been to bring much needed experience in key places such as the signings of Anthony Carter and Bevon Armitage. And on the whole this season they have worked.

One thing that the club cannot be accused of is not looking to develop youth in the team.

Despite the frustrations of this season that is why I am confident we have the nucleus of a good squad for the future. We just need to get through the next 5 weeks
