Once again 'The Mole' telling porkies in his latest hatchet job on the club. Must be getting fed info by a certain player manager.
Do tell?
So bringing in a couple of recruits from QLD apparently is bad for the club's local juniors. Why no mention of the recruits from NZ or is QLD only bad?. Plenty of opportunity to make the final squads with the Tigers naming 46 and the Magpies naming 113 in their SG Ball Summer Squads. Just another whinge and a nothing article from 'The Mole'.
Yeah I was going to post something similar mate.
Nothing wrong with cherry picking some talent from interstate and keeping the best local juniors. Yes some will miss out, but that's the way it is.
Most juniors don't make it. Some parents can't cop it. Some kids get cut then work twice as hard and still make it and prove doubters wrong
True. Well the club has set up alternative pathways for local juniors that haven’t been able to do it via the elite pathways.
Mind you a lot throw their toys out of the cot and demand better and move on if their not considered good enough for the elite teams for their age group. Isn’t Josh Rizk leaving because of this?
But there is still an option to progress through via the Shield, RM and eventually KOE. If they soo desperately wanted to play for the tigers they would stick at it until they are good enough to warrant selection over some of the elite juniors recruited through other means. And if they don’t get their well I’m sure there’s reasons.
We wouldn’t be the first or last club to underestimate a junior in our own system but you can be sure we’ll be the first club to be reminded o such.
