    Linford Christie was reigning 100m World, Olympic and Commonwealth Champ at age 32. If Kennelly is 28 and Shaw is 26 I'm not too concerned.
    My opinion is objective truth in its purest form

      I am sorry, but I can't see any reference to the age of our backline compared to others in the competition in that article.

      Mattner, Shaw, Kennelly, Malceski -> average age 27.5 (doesn't look to old to me)

      add in B2, LRT, Smith, richards and grundy age it drops to 26.5. I realise they can't all play at once, but I think you would agree they are the pool of defenders to choose from .

        To slow? we will have one of the fastest rebounding backlines in the comp, particularly when you have Shaw, Malceski and Kenelly playing at the same time (although in reality, they will be rotated, so we have fresh legs and drive..)
        season 2012- top 4 here we come
