    if that was TLR

    It was a training run, they were rotating players through different positions.
    The U15/16s jets were given instructions by the Matilda's coached in regards to tactics and how they would play, in order to replicate the NZ teams formation and tactics for the next game the Matilda's play.
    There were many senior players missing.
    It was also a meet and greet with fans as well as a training exercise
    Many of the girls were the same age as the boys
    Mark Bosnich is still a massive fecking twat who really needs someone to double check the idiotic things that come out of his coke-addled mind.


    But for all the sexist crap and what-not... We may get towelled up by NZ if we don't get it together quickly.

    Mr Fish longing for the days of the rational debate and measured opinions on the Bk v Biraz thread.

    So GVE was surprised?

    The Matildas assistant coach and former mens youth coach?

    But no-one else should be surprised that the Jets U/15s flogged the shit out of a Matildas team featuring DeVanna Heyman and other stars?

    Blind lefty faux rage

    So these kids got rolled yesterday by Magic to the tune of 10-2

    Now no disrespect to Magic who have some fine players and can rack up a score
    particularly the bloke who bagged 4 of them

    But what exactly is being taught to these kids??

    Obviously nothing about fighting scrapping and playing as a team with pride and passion

    Today's Herald there is some comment that they tired. Well **** me they ain't played in two weeks FFS

    Another failure for Northern and GVE and his failing program


    Dis grace

    Apparently they had 3 out and one kid who has been out for most of the season anyway.

    It isn't even close to an excuse as the blokes stepping in are more than capable of playing at this level

    i think we need to call the program a different name because I just can't see any players "Emerging" from it ha ha.....maybe the "Dead-end Jets" program!

    Ive been hearing kids that are locals and come all the way through the jets youth system are now starting to filter in to the NPL, couple to azzurri, couple to Adamstown, one to edgeworth, begs the question, looks like they have all hit the brick wall at 18 and were never going to be a-league footballers, with only brymora making it to the seniors, and he will be given very limited game time this year id imagine.

    If a kids parents having to pay for their development in these so called elite squads isn't a signal, that the kids are not good enough to ever make it - then I don't know what is.
    Then there is the pure numbers game where we probably should only expect one player from the youth teams every five years at the most, to make the step up into the A-league side.

    Normal situation.

    Look at the youth NTs in the past and see how many made it as pros.

    Happens at every academy in every country. Only a handful of kids come all the way through. If you get 1 a year from each age group make it as an a league player you a doing really well
