Although I'm sure all the players from 13's and up are used to criticism if they perform badly considering it's such a high level but I've got better things to do than bag out a bunch of 13 year olds for a 6-0 loss or whatever.

I mainly started the NPL Youth stuff as I thought the boys would take a keen interest in what I write each week and a lot of the time my results are up faster than Northern's with the New-FM lower grades. Will have to try and catch some games soon. Will definitely try and make grand final day at the very least. And yep, previewing Southy v Jaffas in all four grades was tough. Try to be nice but 10th v 11th is never an easier one to try and muster up some words on, even in the other comps.
Well I'm sure the youth players will appreciate the thought that someone is paying attention
And I think your comments are fair
Maybe fairer than mine as I seem to have offended again
But hey if it waddles and quacks it's a duck !!!!!!!
