Exactly. A lot of chest beating and not a lot do with npl clubs. I recall a few decent kids being overlooked at NL SAP and they found spots at NPL clubs. Some cliques were formed and teams chosen before trials. Many have fallen apart now. AT one point the youth were lead to believe they would be sharing Edden oval this year. Rumours hey.

I do feel for Alan and the others that are still there doing their best to rebuild. With solid management it will come good again.
