    Think he trialled or trained with the Mariners towards the back on last season but things didn't work out. Agree he's a good talent. Wish him well.

    The idea of the Jets building a boutique stadium is crazy. The ends won't justify the means. We get crowds of less than 5000, so a No. 2 would be perfect. Jets could easily work with NC Council to...

    Sadly, you don't remember well - there was only 7k in attendance for the Perth game, which when you consider kids went free and it was the first match of the season is very low. The Jets would...

    What does the A League require in regard to stadium standard? Didn't Magic and Olympic recently hold FFA Cup games at No. 2 versus A League competition? Surely if its good enough for those games it...

    Largely agree with you Jesse but the boy at Roma needed one of those private academies to get him opportunities after WSW cut him, so there is a place for them in the wider context. The major issue...

    I think we are largely in agreement on a lot of things. I’m all for the second division and think it is desperately needed for a competitive professional league and more opportunities for young...

    Do you genuinely believe that having a second division will change things in Newy? That the threat of relegation will mean that fans start flocking to games? That the current 6k attendances treble to...

    Absolutely this.

    Soccer in Australia has fallen so badly into paying to play that parents willingly accept that $300 to trial is okay. It isn’t. You can’t put a bow on the Jets using parents...

    I wasn't making any assumptions at all. My eyes show me this town can't sustain an A League team so I can't see why adding another semi/professional team would make things any better.

    Don't we have to look at it as a trial? It's advertised as for coaches to ID players for the Jets pre academy. So the price to trial is $300 however you want to dress it up.

    Excessive is one word...

    Understand DZ doesn’t work outside of football as looks after his kids, so would likely have capacity for both roles.

    Great appointment for the Jets. Who else develops youth and gives them a go...

    The very idea that Newy will have a team in the B League is laughable. We can barely sustain an A-League team let alone add another pro club to the region.

    B League will be teams from Sydney and...

    The Jets have announced the establishment of a “Foundation” which now appears to decouple their Youth teams from the senior team. Anyone else concerned with this? Recent reports that the academy...

    The Brisbane Roar decision to fold their Youth from 13's-16's tells us exactly where Youth is on the list of priorities for A League clubs. The Jets are no different. My boy's experience left him/me...

    I'm not sure they do. My eldest was involved a few years ago and 15 picked with one GK so to maximise minutes on the pitch. Two GK's? How will that work? Guess they will alternate matches, so...

    Agree. Good to see all the top clubs represented. 17 players? Playing minutes an issue?

    I am supportive of all the changes coming but do fear what the extra games might do to rego fees across the board. More coaching, ground use etc probably equals higher fees. Let's hope clubs surprise...
