How did the Bulldogs rugby league team get away with it?

Would you go into a police station and say, hey can you check, think I was speeding down south rd?

Does anyone actually apply to the be the res team assistant coach?

^^^

This would be interesting to find out.

Before we make any judgements about the "team" let's first see how many made the all star side!

Isnt this all about identifying the individuals??

Finally a topic with genuine responses all offering up a good debate. We must all respect the fact clubs want the best possible players but would it be fair to say that the "best" players don't change clubs anyway? Are their clubs out there that first look to promote from within EG JSL to ...

Some great responses. I particularly like the comment about how can parents pick which teams to trial for when they don't know who the coach is. Coach quality would at the top of my list of criteria. I also am of the opinion making your "own" players trial does not promote loyalty or it's ...

Thanks for the replies guys.

To the parents on here: what are the reasons why you would look to change clubs for your sons (and even daughters)

With lots of clubs posting about Jnr trials. I am wondering do clubs make their current jnrs go through the process also or are those players guaranteed a spot with in the team?

Also, as parents how do you decide on where to take your child to trial?

I think it goes by the year level the child is in. Year 6-7 comp is first year on full size pitch with all the standard Jnr rules. Well that's my understanding.

What rules are you after? Competition rules or LOTG?

Sounds a bit suspect to me.

And that costs 5k? That's some agent fee!

What is the 5k for?

It's taken adelaide 6 years just to get competitive.

So does an A-league pass get you into the w-league games here in Adelaide?

Official confirmation?

Ok thanks. $5 is no big deal!

Will the a league season pass get me into the w league games?

How do you forfeit an u17s game? There's no excuse in not being able to find enough players with in the club from higher or lower age groups.

I would see this as a development opportunity!!

Isnt our national curriculum saying the best should play against the best. Kids need to play in appropriate skill levels/groups??

I've heard if a few lop sided results in the u12s, not just this year but regularly over time. I'm still learning this info, so correct me if I'm wrong. The u12 comp is based on zones and not so much divisions right? But the u11s (& SSF) is not with teams playing against a wide variety of oppone...

Here's your chance to develop 9, 10 & 11 yo's.

There more I'm around jnr football the more I see that this happens. It makes sense, why wouldn't a club want to have the best players and coaches at their clubs.

What makes a good coach?? Well that's a whole new topic there.

What is the purpose of the tournament?

I think it would be a good idea to have a prestigious tournament when clubs field their strong possible side at u16 level from any player at the club. It would be a good talent id thing also.

$250 deposits??? is this the norm??

yeah, its called a back yard, a park and a street. its the best way young kids develop skills.

maybe i should have reworded that to, the PARENT does want their child playing for the "2nd" team.

Para Hills Soccer Club still has vacancies for players in the following age groups. U/12 JSL and U/14 JSL. Interested persons can contact club delegate on 0430781877 after 3:30pm any day. had a friend trial for the 12s, said there was 40 odd kids out, it could have been an exaggeration but how does...

Which clubs have a junior technical director and who are they? Who is it at Birkalla Enzo? I agree it is an important position, but will only work if all the coaches pulling in the same direction. +1 Quite a few clubs have a "TD" but very few have ones that do it properly. I think Metro a...

enzo, only 3 years? while i have to agree with on the TD appointment, the coaches working under him must also be open minded and willing to learn and not be only stuck in the "this is what i know mode"

i know for a fact that the AIS was concerned about his age and had the MRI scan done. Everything is legit!!
