How do they look, cometer? Will they get a game against Croatia?

That's a nice pull. Pity about age/timing. Still a nice junior with a season of pace in him + whatever else you're training.

How do they look, cometer? Will they get a game against Croatia?

Depends what I'm getting in terms of cash settlements from Croatia ;).

They're not particularly great pulls. Ng is trainable I suppose but whether it's worth it for a club your size I'm not so sure, you probably could do a lot better ;).

Nah, they're hopeless and will end up on the scrapheap. If Ng was a 16yo then maybe he'd be trainable.


So who's got the next magical youth?

My youth squad is dry now, although I'm getting a excellent/formidable 3.5 week talent early next season could quite easily be 17 so I can safely say I won't be pulling the next magical, I'm yet to get higher than incredible. Had a few of those this season though.

I've got an incredible 4wk out in a fortnight (week before age update) after 33 weeks. Then possibly a brilliant in March 2009.

nothing really has lived up to my unearthly as of yet, and it seems unlikely to be for some time, at least for me, even with a full YS, my highest expected level junior is incredible...

need to be reeaaalllyy lucky to get the next big thing, and i feel that i've already used up my pool of luck for the next few seasons....

oh well, one cant stop hoping, can they? ;)

I've got a Brilliant (14.25) and two incredibles (13.5 and 13.09) in the pipeline... all of them with talent below 4.6wks
plus a few of outstandings and formidables with talent below 5wks...
the next two seasons should be interesting as I havent pulled many juniors this season since I've gone a bit tight on the criteria to keep juniors in my school...

wow, patterson can bring you a nice sum

yeah, almost listed but as I'm training def/pace at the mo' I'll keep training him & "Py boy"...may add passing to that later.

"Stergi what's his name" is on the market as he'd be far better off with someone training strikers....16yo should appeal.

Are Australian youth names getting more inventive / multicultural?

some of the more european names i can find in my YS

those names have been around for a long time. Don't think any new names have been added in a while, at least I haven't added any for quite a while.
