Do any of us know if Duncan was 100% fit today, how he trained on Thursday or any other reason why he may have chosen to start him on the bench? I would venture to suggest that the answer to that is a resounding NO!!
Another question - Who knows the players better, the Manager who works one to one with them, knows how they train, how they're feeling, their strengths and weaknesses OR some people on here who look at most everything through red and white striped shirts hoping that some nasty facts don't get in the way of their personal perceptions.
Oh and for my money (and incidentally that of quite a few folk around the ground) Ryan Brooke didn't have a bad game at all. Seldom looked like scoring in all honesty but worked hard, linked play well and helped to make chances for some others
