    I haven't been on the foz in years and I return to hear the same old dribble...BK is a state league keeper at best. If BK went to Maitland NPL he would struggle to get the #1 spot ahead of Ben Kelly and Trott. Why do people continually defend the bloke? I get it that he is a local lad but come on champs, open your eyes. The fact that we have been having this conversation for years says something.

    He's been employed by the Jets for a long time?

    funny that the coaches, and the staff have continued to sign him though.

    I still think peoples views of BK are still blinded by 2008-2010 BK as compared to him as a keeper now.

    I think in the last 12 months he has more then proven his worth

    his performance against MV a couple of weeks ago was outstanding.

    yes he has weaknesses, but all keepers do.

    Lol.

    If content on the internet proved anything I'd give up my day job and become a pool boy, pizza delivery guy or a masseuse that wears white singlet and no underpants.

    Funny you should say that.

    I am currently sitting in a white singlet. When my Thai friend gets back on the phone with me I am hoping she is in her underpants.

    She got a massage yesterday after going for a swim in a pool.

    I seen a pizza delivery bloke at the weekend (��hello SD)and I daily wonder how I can make a living in Thailand so I can quit my day job.

    Absolutely amazing your insight ***

    Why do schools have to win a competition to get a visit, it should be the f'ing norm and the players should f'ing enjoy doing it.

    How else do they choose the schools? I'd rather the players go to the schools that want them i.e. those that go to the effort of showing their support. And who says the players don't enjoy it? They can't go to every ****ing school in the Hunter, there'd be no time to actually train and work on winning games.

    agree 100%

    I didn't rate him back then at all, but he has improved out of sight imo

    Okay mate you've said your dribble now don't come back for another few years!
    How a keeper like BK can have an outstanding game like the one he did when called upon against Victory, plus being voted as the keeper of the round and still some loser on a keyboard say that he is not good enough for this level!? Disgraceful!

    Cheers furngully, someone had to come on here and educate these peanuts. Things seem to have gotten out of hand since I've been away. For starters, there seems to be way too much positivity and support for the boys. Absolutely disgraceful and un-newy.

    Anyway, bot, bodynovo, the reason he has been around for so long is because our club is literally piss poor and BK has been willing to play for peanuts for years. Seriously, you blokes need to have a good hard look at yourselves. You think he has been around all these years based on his exceptional goalkeeping talents? Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahah ahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahaha! That'll do me mate! That'll do me!

    This 2-3 players per school 20+ players in the squad, 5-6 schools a day, 2-3 days a week. You can soon tick a few off the list, as hawk said its a spreading the game and the Jets brand. All kids they visit in the fortnight get free entry to the next game, who has to take the kids? Oh thats right paying parents.

    I like this. 5-6 schools in a day could be a bit tough though!

    That might have worked last year when we trained 2 hours a day and the other mountains of daytime were spent sipping lattes down near the beach.

    How different is our training this season for anyone that has gone?
