Don't discount some emerging talent coming out of the U17s. More exciting than the recycled hasbeens chasing farmers coin.

Where’s all that? Not much of a U17 comp here, maybe one full side this yr if we are lucky out of 7

Most A Grade teams could only accommodate 2 or 3 lads coming up per year, so the actual numbers in the U17's is not so important (other than development). There are some names to watch from the top ten vote getters last year. The rest probably need a bit more time or may not make it to A grade in any case.

Do you think that in a years time, young Charlie A is a worst player for coming through a weak U17 comp. I think not - he will be just as good. Hasn't seem to have impacted on Harry G's form.
I was simply saying to have a look at some of the younger talent. Take a relax tab mate..

He might not go backwards, so he may not be a worse player, but no way in the world world will he become the best player he possibly could be.
Kids that are given things on a platter, dont really have to work hard etc in juniors usually find out the hard way it gets you nowhere.
if anyone thinks cruising in a poor junior program is good for a talented player they are kidding themselves.
The best thing for the long term future of the comp is to make sure there is a strong junior program, that will, in the future, create a strong senior comp and teams wouldn't have to recruit half a side to be competitive. Clearly numbers are the current problem, so the question is, what is the league doing to make junior footy more enticing to young kids, they cant leave this purely up to the clubs!

firstly, *worse,
Secondly, yes I do some what. I am taking the side of Magpieeagle (for want of a better term). The APFL has built a "bigfish syndrome" - in SOME CASES. Not knowing Charlie I am not going to comment on how this will affect his development. As a generalisation what I have noticed is that Junior/younger players get told how they good they are to a point that builds false confidence even if they do "dominate" underage football (a pool of around 130 registered under 17s in 2013). Once it is time to enter the senior system (A grade and Reserve's football - a pool of about 350 players) the opportunities are less, the numbers are greater and due to low numbers in u/17s they do not have the knowledge, and at times the character to work for/earn what they want and often deserve. I will reiterate, I am not attacking past, present or future players or coaches but this is my observation and opinion.
In short players like Charlie Arbon & James Speissegger (BFC), Tyler Darwin & Dylan Collings (HBFC), Joshua Appleby (HWFC), Nik Seccafien and Doc heron (TWFC), Ryan Konzag & the Coe brothers (MFC) would benefit from playing in a stronger underage comp.
