People diss this sort of thing or pay no attention to it and them whinge when the club is unsuccessful.
Is it any coincidence this year that 3 of the top 4 teams have a similar development structure in place for their young players?
Is it any coincidence that the sides that finished 1st and 2nd have their own VFL or seconds team?
Is it any coincidence that the top 4 clubs teams this year were the top four clubs for football department $ spent? A large part of which goes into recruiting and development.
The Saints will only be a successful and sustainable force when we invest in these areas ...
It's a great move.

Old enough to repaint, but young enough to sell
That was plain mismanagement, plain & simple. We would hope that with a new list management team & staff - that the priority would be to not have some stupid issue like this rearing its head again.Bernard Shakey wrote:What's the point, when they can just go where the money is?savatage wrote:I wasn't aware we had an academy at all - thus I'm happy to see improvements will be made to all facets of junior development.

What stupid issue? Sydney offered him more money and his Irish mate talked him into it.savatage wrote:That was plain mismanagement, plain & simple.
