Qualifying Final This arvo

Hey guys,

Just away from the mighty eels for a moment. Want to wish my son all the best in the qualifying final in soccer (yes soccer) this afternoon. As many of you may remember I coached him for over 10 years and made rep soccer after all people said park soccer players are not good enough. I never had the money to put him in expensive academies but hey. We got there. He is now in Premier League and his team finished undefeated minor prems.

"It's more than that with the ball I don't remember him ever having that fend and speed to back himself taking on defenders.His improvement has come from within  more so I think the surroundings you mention have helped also though."

"Also their short passing through the middle, as to why they bought de Belin to facilitate that, collapsing the ruck with quick movement causing the defence to fatigue and move with the momentum it's nice to see Brown and Wisemental's structure with…"
