i think they're much different to the old ones that you're talking about, i've only had a short kick around on the UNSW one, like you said the problems have been ironed out.
the bounce is comparable to grass, same as the roll, plus there's no bumps etc. i'd happily play on it, but i grew up playing hockey on astroturf so i'm used to it.
i watched a game of women's AA on it after, so I can't give you much information as to what a proper game of football is like on it, though.
I eavesdropped on a convo that one of the guys behind the soccer5's on the central coast had........ Even with conservative estimates these things, if run well, are money making machines.
Find the right spot so they are well used by the community..... Charge the right price.....rake in the money.

New episode is available - Fan Forum part 2 featuring our interview with Gary Van Egmond. Asked the questions that people had been posting on here for ages, as well as the questions that were actually submitted when I asked for them.
Great work mate.
Can see from GvE's response why we didn't sign Flores. He sort of rules it out there and then upon reflection!
Not overtly flustered on Flores. Bloke may have put some good goals in when at Adelaide to make some good YouTube vids but he isn't exactly a team player.
Very lazy defensively and would not fit into our team dynamic much like KFC Hernandez.
Pleasing aspect GVE was pretty honest with a few things. Claiming his man management skills etc need improving and it is an area that he is lacking in.
Always a great sign when you can admit your own faults and not be in denial.
Griffo comments show promise. Speaks to Joel regularly. Keen to have him back. Would fit into set up well etc.
Maybe it ain't the clubs fault Griff hasn't resigned maybe the pressure needs to be applied to Joel to man up, return home and lead the Newy Charge to the HAL title
5 aleague teams in preseason, overseas preseason trip still on the cards.
won't be surprised when we play sydney fc & wellington and that's about it.
gve didn't mention peppz once when talking about mids. also didn't mention regan (iirc) when talking about cbs.
OK
keeping the pressure of the young boys.
mind games have started.
was also defending himself against the "the squads too young" brigade, so he's hardly going to lst a few young players!
I don't recall him mentioning them either, but he didn't mention Goodwin, Bridges either I think. I'm not reading too much into it.Originally Posted by pv4
I agree - the man management comments were something pleasing to hear, as it was a widely spread rumour his man managemnet wasn't his greatest asset as a coach. It was interesting to listen about the type of football he wants us to play and the tactics as well.
he labelled his team as kids at one stage lol
OK
Interesting hear him say words about conflict being needed. I know what he means, church mouse types are boring to work with.
Good interview Furns.
Glad people are enjoying them
my favourite part of the last podcast was gve saying we need griff and saying he loves having rubez around. life complete basically.
OK
manly is also building a synth pitch and botany council rents out hensley park for friendlies and catch up games (hakoah and sydney uni use it as their homeground). they should defo get a couple around newy.

What don't you like about Newy???
Best loaded question ever!!! Need to think carefully before answering
First one to lay the boot in to Newy is in for it!!!!
lol that wasnt the intention but good to see the locals stick up for the place and the worst thing people said was coffee prices or the weather.
Also RyGriff dropping the truth bomb about a small minority laying the boot in.

As I posted on twitter earlier today, a big thanks to all the Jetstream listeners.
We averaged 150 listeners for each of the four latest podcast episodes posted in the last two weeks.
If people can share the episodes on FB and twitter to get the word out so we can grow it even more that would be great and much appreciated.
