Re: how do clubs assist coaches

At club level, coaches come and go. How many current coaches can say they have coached at one club only for more than 5 years? I think the FFSA should provide a coaches forum to support coaches - at junior and senior level. The FFSA support referees; coaches need to interact with each other in a sim...

Re: ZONE TRAILS

If you or your son is in the best 8-9 he will get in after that it gets very even and is very subjective with many influences. Being a talent identification program, if you are not in the best 8-9 from your zone you are a long way from the best 20 in the State anyway at this point. The best encoura...

Disappointing to hear - STIC is about identifying the next generation of State and National players.

Ability alone won't be enough if the player i...

Point of clarification. The way the trials are run is not a girls vs boys issue. It depends on the coach and their met...

Re: Italia v Romania

Re: Group C: Netherlands v France

Fantastic Match! The difference in Holland seems to be unity I think. So often in-fighting in the past, they self destructed during a tournament with arguably better players than they have now. But teams win tournaments (Maradona the exception). MVB I think has instilled an Italian defensive and mid...

Re: Italia v Romania

Just how many chances just Toni need to put one away? That's two games now and he has produced nothing. Vieri still more effective. Put Panucci up front even. How did Luca Toni score 29goals (or was it 39) in the Bundesliga Italy's persistent long ball tactic became rather predictable very quickly. ...

Same can apply to both Switzerland and Austria really. Who is their reliable goal scorer and keep Panucci away from the defence. Referee was a fruitcake...

Re: Euro 2008 - Croatia set for Hungary test

Hungary 1 - 1 Croatia
N Kovac scored for both teams.

Croatia looked the better team overall I thought but without Eduardo they need to find a reliable goal scorer.

I define a poor season when a team performs below what they are capable of.

Obviously he can finish, but whether he fires in Euro 2008 will depend on the Dutch team dynamics, something that has hampered them in the past.
