Too funny...yes there are holdbacks on Madlax. Funny thing is 7 of the Madlax starters in the NAL fall tourney were on age. And btw, all of those beat downs against the LI teams at NAL were without #19 and as you know by now, #24. And fyi, we didn’t even add 7 players this fall, much less 7 holdbacks.
So you it looks from the sidelines like you have about 35 players on the team and 30% of starters are not age eligible for the WSYL what does that say about the rest of the roster? Would you not want to prove that this is the best team at this age? As far as "Love how some people feel like they can identify holdbacks just by looking at them." You do know that the kids all know. They play on rec teams together, played at fall brawl, kids go to the same school, social media, ect....
Funny. I don't think even 7 of the super human Madlax kids could beat 10 kids on another WSYL roster but maybe I'm wrong. Also, Madlax has 30 kids on the A roster and another 18 kids on the B roster. Going off of last year's 23's, Madlax could not field one team of 20 between the the 2 rosters to compete and that was over 40 players. They struck an arrangement with NL to have their best on-age players switch over for the tournament.
