Not sure what input they (Jim and Matt) had over the 13-15's. But the 18's and 20's were coached by them over this season and last I think.

Fresh ideas
everyone who wants to coach gets "taught" how to coach from a manual and course thats outdated before it was printed,
juniors all have to play the same formation and predictible football
ever since all these coaching programs and licensing have come in Australianjuniors have fallen further behind (and we have more players to pick from than we did 10 or 20 years ago)
we produce athletes/robots not footballers
Ya right. I have watched kids in so called " select teams " have to play to this must play out from the back preached method and get smashed week after week and quite often by double figures. If they dared stray from this method of play they got hooked for a spell on the bench. The kids would come off shattered after having a cricket score put on them but the FFA's H Berger mantra was the way and the only way. As a result we do have too many players running around now who have had any natural instinct to play what they see in the moment well and truly coached out of them.
Hearing Maitland are charging $10 to get in to see the exhibition against the jets tonight ? Serious ?
What I can"t work out is they were due to play Hamilton but it got canned because lights weren't 200lux for live streaming, Azzurri ( Lisle Carr ) didn't have the 200 lux required, or it was going to be on up there, has Maitland really got 200 lux lighting or are they telling jets porkies
BTW - If Azzurri got a game, would have been gold coin going to a local charity.
Check Maitland's Facebook page... Says they are trying to recoup the "significant financial loss" from the early season wash outs...
I dream to play premier football please #gofundme
Edgy 5 nil over Valo
Maitland 2-1over Jaffas
Heard rumour of big changes on U18s points table. What has Magic been up to?
Have heard the Swan brothers are following Bolch too Maitland
I heard it was from their game in first round.
Seems an interesting rule....
Seems a little silly.
Can a 15yo play first grade?
All these age restrictions getting lower and lower with the aim of players developing for first grade at a younger age, but playing a 15 year old in 18s is not on...if you are good enough, you're old enough.
On the bright side... The Kid can still play first grade
See now this is where the Jets being included in the NPL is silly.
So are Northern going to deduct points from the Jets as well?
They play 15 year olds in the 18s on a regular basis given that the EJs players in the 18s can be no older than 16.
Can they have their cake and eat it too???
le bluer news
pre'sident.. GOoooooone........ Away
sources say resigned from post
maybe things to come another spark may push his weight in
Will DiNardo come back?
Will it be a McGrath 1-2?
Heard some unhappy campers from the newly announced coaching team since the arrival of Ned's Nemesis.
rather embarrassing
NPL : team plays a young kid in 18's- deemed cheating, breaking the rules
EJets: team plays 14/15 year olds in 18's, 20's and 1st grade- deemed development, fantastic opportunity
i say remove the problems (EJ), and the rules become the same for all
Considering that the FFA have put HAL Yoof teams into all the local NPL as a policy I don't even know why we having this let's get rid of the Jets discussion
It ain't happening
What though is a farce is this rule where Magic are getting punished
No issues that technically the rule is there Magic breached it punishment comes in
Issue is the rule needs removing particularly when the EJ program playing kids up age categories policy isn't being allowed at other clubs
If an NPL club can find a 15 year old good enough for first grade then he should be allowed to play
Anything else is bullshit
