I see, essentially we're asking boys to do a man's job. There's fitness and then battle hardened fitness, our lot are just fit, how many late goals do we score...maybe 2 or 3 all season. |

I imagine the league of Ireland is probably a good place to send our players to learn how to be a bit more physical/learn the 'dark arts' |
