Hearing kids are already leaving back to local NPL clubs
Elsewhere edgy have been picking up some of their rivals best players for 11s and 12s next year. The A team 10s from this year were unbeatable and that won’t change next season with the extra fire power they got.
Good luck everyone else, you will need it
Wrong about the 10s being unbeatable.
Magic spanked both of the edgy teams
An unbeatable team that got spanked?
Surely the only way to settle this is for you guys to post a link to the table or some photos of the kiddies holding grand final trophies or even better how about the parents show us the sheep stations they obviously procured as part of their dominant season.
Seriously, Santa hasn't even turned up yet and we are already on this bullshit.
Gonna be a long season.
Here he is! Casper who can’t help but comment on everything, but he don’t care about it. No really, he doesn’t.
People talk about scores and best teams on every forum. You yourself chat plenty on these topics. Just check your previous self and know we know.
It’s all good though. We just having fun. Keep it interesting and respectful. Onya.
Correct, how else would I know if my u/10 SAP bets got up unless we dissect each game on here. To be fair a few pre match injury reports going into each round would be greatly appreciated too.
Anyway, Merry Christmas Mr Wall and may the big man bless your kiddies with many dominant victories and dish out humiliating defeats for all those who dare to wear a different coloured shirt to you.
Cheers,
Casper.
The competition between most clubs grows closer each year. 9s was a farce 12s much better.
Not sure about overall technical ability though. If the Jets cant get it right what chance the clubs.
You are either Captain_Carl who's been permabanned or shamed into making a new account, or just really new here and didn't bother to read The MILLION pages where this has been covered to death.
NO ONE CARES. Winning in JDL / SAP means NOTHING. The people that know don't care and thats not what JDL is for. If they are just flogging the ball past midfield all the time then those kids in the back and midfield are literally learning NO SKILLS. Their goalkeeper won't make NPL doing that either.
Do you know why? Because kids that don't do anything don't learn anything. Those that have been working hard against that team end up better skilled and edgy will be wanting them for NPL. Its no different to NPL Youth to Seniors. those top clubs start looking at the kids that have been putting in and working their asses off not walking into wins for seniors. Why? Because they are more resilient against things not always going their way and they know they have to work hard to get the results.
Point in case - Kids leaving the jets after bad trial games. They are likely the new kids selected who are used to having wins handed to them on a plate, Once it gets hard, they bail back to easy wins (If the clubs will take them back).
your comments are like cancer to kids and youth sport.
Great, everyone has come out to play!
the point is that Edgy who were already one of the strongest in SAP just got stronger. Youth sport is ALL about competition and if you don’t know that you are in for a hard few years ahead. The players will win and lose but the ones that make it furthest are the ones who mostly win. From they way you talk I guess your kids club mostly loses and I hate to tell you most of the players there have already found their limit.
discuss the strongest clubs out there picking up the best kids from other clubs and then ask those parents why they move. Stop calling people cancer when you don’t like hearing a few home truths.
Theres no NPL youth thread but its been interesting being on the trial circuit over the last few months transitioning from JDL to NPL youth.Its going to be interesting to see how some of the better JDL programs go with losing their best kids to the Jets.Ive also seen a lot of kids coming from community and making NPL teams which is good as it means a lot of clubs dont have any preconceived bias towards the JDL program.Clubs are also forming a real identity in the way they recruit and plan on playing which looks like a good short term idea but I worry if the kids will continue to develop through to 16's.Seeing this first generation of JDL kids jump up to the next level should hopefully give clubs some good ideas on how to tweak their JDL programs for the next generation of kids.It will be interesting to see where everyone ends up at the end of the next cycle after 16's.Hopefully a large percentage of them stick with it but to think theres probably 4 teams that will consistently win in that time means theres a fair few hard times ahead for the majority.
#agree.
Lol. It’s no home truths for me. So many guesses and they are all wrong.
Neither of my kids current clubs (note the “s”) “mostly” lose. But I also educate them to never forget where they come from and how they worked to get where they are now.
One moved to be closer to home and the other is also closer to home but also playing in an older age group. Lol.
ive been around football a long time and are friends with just about everyone from SAP/JDL to even the jets first grade .. so go back and read your EDGY TELEGRAPH
All grades are strong at magic , there 11s and 12s are better
but i agree , Edgy will be a little bit stronger picking up a few from Olympic
Edgy will be strong but Olympic will have strong 12s next year. Magic a little depleted but still very competitive. Jaffas strong. Adamstown had a very handy team too. Maitland pretty good. didnt see all elevens this year though. And depends if clubs have A & B teams as well.
Not to mention bigger kids on a smallish pitch things get interesting.
Be good to see competition again but I wouldn't pay attention to results. look at technique. Are we getting that right?
What a stupid comment. How many kids has your club produced from the JDL into the Jets recently? I can’t remember reading anywhere you have tbh. I’ve seen Magic, Olympic, Maitland, valentine produce kids but none from Edgeworth. That’s how you judge success and not a score line in under 10 you imbecile.
Only reason Edgy might have gotten a tad better now is because Jobe sending kids there.
Stay in your lane over competitive dad. Seems like your 10s might have won a few battles but like ze Germans they lost the war.
Listen to these Tragic turds having a cry. It's fantastic.
Yaa Yaa wants to call others imbeciles when he is the cancer. lol.
Cobra, you had one whole team leave because your club are grubs. fact. enjoy your custard. lolol
It's amazing I have managed to bring everyone out of the wood on this forum. It is like a Xmas family gettogether. Everyone arguing and losing their sh*t over nothing. Merry Xmas!
Thanks for trying with the 'Seems like your 10s might have won a few battles but like ze Germans they lost the war' line. It made zero sense but worth a go. What war did these 9 year olds lose? Never mind.
Here is what I think - in 2022 Edgy will have more kids selected for the Jets than Magic. In 2023 Edgy will have more kids selected for the Jets than Magic. I also think, quietly, you know that is going to be the case as well.
Edgy will be the first to say they didn't get things right with SAP when it first started but they are making up for it now.
On this point, you may be right in 2022, who knows?
Last year Edgy had maybe 5 kids who would be in consideration and has picked up one of the best kids from Jaffa's. Maybe picked up some other kids from elsewhere?
To be fair though I think Magic, Edgy, Jaffa's, Magic & Olympic in next years 12's all have roughly the same amount of kids who stand out. Azzurri and Rosebud also have a couple as well and there may be 1 or 2 from other clubs.
The competition and game quality in last years under 11 boys was great. All the clubs above are capable of coming out on top in any particular game against each other. There is no super team/club which I think helps a lot of these young players in their development.
Hopefully next year is more of the same.
I want to give a big shout out to all my mates at Valo. Your JDL program is second to none and the amount of talent you produce is amazing. Your new facility will be a game changer and help you to retain more of your talent. When the facility opens I will do a special promotion and sell my horns for half price. Go Valo! Jeepers creepers yeah!
LOL this won’t happen. You do know Magic have about 6 kids under age playing up in the 11s and they still dominate. Imagine if they played their own age. Trust me I know some of these kids and if they played their own age it would be like the 13s competition this year. Magic 13s was like 20 wins from 20 and I don’t think a team even come within 2 goals of them.
Not sure why you would get excited about JDL results but. Wait till points are up for grabs then you tell your friends little Billy’s team is the best 🤦
I think Doopche spent so long editing his post that he missed my earlier comment about kids ‘playing up’. I love to hear parents talk about their 9 year old playing with the big 10 year olds. Those months, sometimes weeks, age gaps is certainly worth screaming about. Don’t forget to tell everyone your boy is playing up. Oh too late, you already did.
I saw those Magic 13s this year and they were fantastic. Remind me how many U12s ‘played up’ in that squad? The answer is actually none, but the question was rhetorical so, yeah, you know.
No I don’t think you understand what I’m telling you dummy. I didn’t say my son plays up, I’m telling you they have a lot of kids that play up. What’s going to happen if some of those decide to stay in same age and do 12s again and not go NPL yet? Your star team might not look so good then. I couldn’t care less who wins a game of JDL but you have jumped on here to either to stir the pot or you’re a loser dad that lives through his son and come on here to gloat because they won a few games of kick and giggle at 10yrs old. We don’t care if edgy is better than magic under 10s. Next time I see the Jets selectors I’ll tell them a dad on forum said edgy is full of superstars at 10. Can someone let me know when these 2 teams play next season so I can come watch and listen to “Berlin wall” I reckon it would be very amusing if they were to lose and watch him crying in the stands yelling at the poor kids. Grow up.
Now get back into the cave you crawled out of.
I really don't understand the logic of someone coming on and ranting about a club like this person has with edgy. They either don't realise that it doesn't really do anything positive for the clubs image, or they are actually from another club trying to make them look bad. If they have an awesome training program then tell us all about what they are doing in that space, because thats interesting and relevant.
The "Club or Die" mantra that some people have is great when you are a supporter, but a bit tough for kids who aren't always likely to stay at one club their whole development and probably the worst part of the new system. What happens when all of a sudden your kid isn't part of the clubs plans anymore, quit football? I think it pays to be a bit more pragmatic than that.
Agree. He’s a new member so he’s trying to get a bite it seems. He’s only putting pressure on them now, I just hope he’s not a coach. I hope they are talented and go far in football but it’s a bit early to be crowing about how good a team is at JDL level. I’m not going to say how good or bad a team is. I’m just saying what I know and seen over the last few years being around it. Not sure why there would be any hate towards any club at this level? Keep that chest beating crap for the NPL and let these kids play.
Oh, Kitz. Me pulling you up on silly statements is going to become a bit of a reoccurring theme I can see.
I haven't "ranted" about Edgy at all. I made informed observations and predictions. But your back was up because it probably dawned on you that the reason most of your conversations with people about soccer go nowhere is because you drop in the "my kid plays up" line every chance you get. No one cares. Honestly. I hope that helps.
Fantastic advice from Mr Doopche! Now, let me scroll back a few pages on this forum and see how consistent this statement is with his previous posts. Oh...
Congratulations on getting the post up first time though. You clearly spent a while with spell check. Onya. :brrr:
