the juniors myth.

Posted by The Offside Eel on August 3, 2015 at 8:50pm
I look at players over the years with all the hype in world who simply don't devolp into anything special when there time came.In recent past i think of players like tim smith, Daniel mortimor, Broderick wright, inu. Tailima touatiNow players like vai touati, morgan, tanganoia,It makes me think who was the last junior besides hayne. To kick really kick on.Is it a issue within our club in terms of identifying and nuturing talent.Is the next crop of next big things morea, jr paulo, french, doomed to same fate?

    Unfortunately they only look at kids that are big and not necessarily footballers. Too many Polynesian players in the parra comp. I have a few mates who have taken their kids to cronulla and made a grand final winning Harold matts team but couldn't crack parra. Work that out?

    Right there is the problem we develop battering rams without the skills.
