    Players not progressing to the rabble that is the Jets HAL side.
    Going backwards in the last 2-3 years at a rate of knots

    It be interesting to see if the new Technical Director can turn this around and the last TD was just searching for some footballing utopian fantasy he had dreamt up after watching one too many Barca games and swallowing the KNVB Dutch mango suckers methodology at the FFA hook line and sinker and just couldn't deliver on the fantasy

    ok so I've only seen the above video so please dont take this as any sort of expert breakdown.



    but.



    O'Donovans first goal was something i havent seen from the Jets for what feels like an eternity.
    a bloke just confident in getting his spot and hitting the target. Nobby had a bit of that a couple of years back but this bloke actually looked like a striker.

    not to mention the chances created by wingers whipping in early ball to a fast striker attacking his centreback.

    i know it looked like classic Merrick football but if its how hes building his team and the players are buying in (and capable of executing) then ill be more than happy to go watch.

    I felt the same, Adam Taggart was the last striker I felt who really had that feeling of a genuine striker who was happy to just have a crack at goals when he got into a decent position insteading of ****in about with it

    In all fairness to GVE I don't think he's sobered up yet from the Grand Final celebrations. Science still can't explain how he made it onto the stage at Adamstown Oval on Grand Final night all those years ago.

    Yeah, funny stuff, guys.

    All I'll say is that Cooper is not the answer for the Emerging Jets, because GVE is not the problem. There are institutional issues that are out of his control. I'll be back here in this thread after the season collapses to remind you.

    Watch the young Matildas benefit now.

    Ljubo is playing the any publicity is good publicity card at the moment which suggests he's looking to get a book out into the market. Based on the reaction to his volley of musings recently it's probably going to sell a few copies. Good on him if he does - it should be an amusing read.

    Did you get that from the constant "my book is going to be amazing when I write it" bits that he puts in almost every instagram post?
