TASMANIA will deliberately risk a thrashing against the powerful VFL at Blundstone Arena on May 26 to blood its young guns for future years of representative football.

After the state squad's first training session at Aurora Stadium last night, coach Adam Sanders said his youth policy was designed for the long haul, with the state set to play representative football every year until at least 2017.

Selectors have gone with a youth policy based on attributes in line with the AFL draft rather than simply picking the best TSL team possible ahead of the May 26 clash with the VFL at Blundstone Arena.

THE already inexperienced TSL team has a huge hole to fill after the withdrawal of arguably the state's most skilled player, Clarence captain Cameron Thurley.

Thurley, a former Geelong and North Melbourne utility as well as a Devils veteran, underwent groin surgery in the off-season and has to manage the injury to get through the year and avoid the doctor's knife again.
