Out of the loop...

In the company I fly for the captain is always the PF on ground. I agree with that.
Some Cop`s have enough experience to do that but the less experienced ones are sometimes out of the loop till line up.

Words (almost) fail me.
If you are talking about a public-transport operation, and particularly one flying passengers on a $60m aeroplane; please could you explain why any copilot would be so inexperienced or poorly trained that he/she is "out of the loop"?
At what stage does the copilot come back into the loop; during the take-off, or later?
