I didn't see much playing out from the back the games I saw. Mostly hitting long diagonal balls is what I saw from him, often resulting in turnovers.

Is this the youth technical director? maitlands results as a club have been below standard surely the td wouldn't be given the coaching job. pretty sure the youth td was on personal holidays for the business end of the season. or is it a case of he's only one with the qualifications?
Have heard piggo strongly linked to the stags with the thorntons ( who I think have Awaba links ) and a former youth jet also from Toronto.
Piggo all about bringing Toronto juniors back to the club if he takes/gets the job
Azzurri old boys day

Reece Thompson had nothing to do with piggo's departure, apparently it's all to do with ex players having way to much to say whilst not lifting a finger in the running of the club, typical
magpies is like the waltons crossed with days of our lives . comment in the herald ' they are like the parra eels of the npl ' .
I agree with you on Reece. As far as I've heard he's been one of the only ones trying to keep the club together. I was just wondering what you'd heard because you're obviously hearing a different version of events to me and I'm assuming the truth is somewhere in the middle.
Back to football there is a huge game this weekend which should more or less decide the Minnor Premiership
So who's everyone's tip
Olympic or Edgy???
Where's Brett Fawkes coaching these days?
Know he stepped Away to Concentrate on cycling, but he was one of the best I've played under. Good ideas, coaching, really good with youth. Not sure that translates to senior coaching but he would be one of my picks. Greg Smith also not bad. Piggo polarises people, but he is very clear with what he wants.
Reece is very influencial at Maitland. (And rightly so as he puts his money where his mouth is as well as his time and efforts.)
Blake Thompson (his brother) gets dropped and the coach is sacked before their next game, even though they win. Its tough to believe Reece had nothing to do with it especially when you take into account he and Piggo have butt heads on a few occasions this year.
Olympic 2-1
not sure why zane is complaining in todays herald, jets can field any team they want in the fixture against nnsw select, I honestly understand millers remarks about not having room for a local player, its not a god given right that a local gets direct passage through to jets, it needs to be earn't, the local npl isn't that strong and I don't believe there is any one good enough, Virgilli came from the A league and is by far the best player in the comp, debatable, yes, but he didn't set the A league on fire, maybe next off season they can go and train with jets and get a better picture but I firmly believe miller was just being honest
I do have a problem with his remarks
By saying he is treating it as a training run is the wrong thing.
To completely publically rule out any NPL player is the wrong thing
I understand that this game is just a pre season kick about but Millertime is watering down what he can get from the game for his team as far as a good hit out goes.
Add in the fact he will hook everyone at HT and put the Yoof team on.
If the Jets are gonna treat the game as a joke why bother playing it??
What do you blokes who follow think of that Japsnese fellow ?.... Aleague material?
No, far from it, let's see him ply his trade in Sydney NPL
Great to see the jets taking this comp seriously. Absolute joke
I look at it the other way, when I mentioned there was 8/20 edgeworth players selected, YOUS were sticking up for zany, now he firmly States in today's paper that its a waste of Scott miller isn't looking at npl players in this trial, says to me , he has selected 8 of his own so they get their chance to show miller what they can do but it has backfired, niw threatening to pull players out ....
On a side note, have heard the super youth team are down 5-1 before Ht ?
It's a nothing game and a complete waste of time. NNSW should tell the jets to piss off.
What a disgrace for any npl side to have double figures scored on them, let alone the jets. They treat our comp like it's their own playground. Their coach rubbished our comp and the players in it, then they get belted by Magic. I am sorry but call off this farce of a midweek match, let Edgy, Magic and Olympic concentrate on fighting it out for the minor premiership . Let Miller have an inter club trial against his up and comers and then if they can't treat the npl comp with any respect, pack up and f##k off
All week we've heard about how 8 youth players have been training with the first team, any money none of them played even though the jets assured nnsw earlier in the year that no layers will be missing when the first team start pre season, what a joke, disrespectful, **** off and don't come back
Haynsey back to his best!
