Buds Youth on fire against Edgy
What about CCB in 17's
What's going on blue man ?
3 games no points 11goals against, only conceded about that in whole season last year
Core if team from gf winning 14's & 15's
Must say I expected better
Gordo, great coach, great bloke even better physio 😉😉😄😄
Good to see a group of kids stay together but I think the club has let them down a little, couple of these 17's could play 19's one midfielder would play 19's at any club, so why hasn't club promoted them instead of importing two 15/16yo's into 19's one of which has played at three clubs in three years the other has now been at four clubs in three years
Bit of a slap to the existing kids
Mate I don't know, not there anymore, from what I have seen and been told two things.......
Defence, just not what it was, big centre back that looks hopelessly out of place and plays way to high for some one with his lack of pace and left back ( a managers son ) who is somehow starting in front of others ???? Best he had yesterday against jets was wanting to "drop " a 14yo who just skinned him, just farking stupid when down 4-0
Maybe also keeper had enjoyed two years without being really tested now showing his real ability ???
Coach, the core of this team has had same coach and methodology for two years from what I hear new coach is like going back to U/9
There is hope but as a very capable coach is now involved and could be a big help
Club has done wrong by these boys very successful, very well coached, club should have left Greg Smith at 17's to continue developing these boys
Why Blue, I agree that Adamstown are looking good with Gordo doing an excellent job. But criticising other kids for changing clubs and playing up in the 19s is a bit rich.
My criticism ( if that's what you call it ) would be of the club, for overlooking some talented existing kids and not promoting them to 19's
My point about the new recruits emphasises that they overlooked talented loyal kids for a couple of kids that change clubs as often as undies
I actually agree with you on this one. Only 3 of the Boys in 17's last year were kept (out of 5 that could stay) and only 2 of the 17's have been retained for 19's (17's team finished mid table, drew 0-0 with EJets two weeks before final series that they won). I think it could have been done better, but a new coach for 19's and head coach wanting to do things their way.
I have heard from a few different people that the pies were very lucky to get a 2-1 win over Weston on sunday in 17s at cooks square, any truth to this?
Ohhhhh my goodness.
This thread outlines one major issue in Youth development in our region.
Ps I keep getting confused between the "experts, experts everywhere" and the "NPL Youth" thread.
