Antonis in their line up, shows you where a coach like Rudan takes your career

 

[FFC Mariner]

I saw rhe name.
Which one is this one?

 

[Melange]

I'm assuming Terry, hard to tell in the video highlights

 

[priorpeter]

It’s George Antonis. Terry is a bit too old to be in an academy side!

Thanks Pete. Wasn't sure of the rules, I thought they were able to play up to three over age players but that may be a rule from the past

You’re onto something, it definitely used to be. Though now gone are the days of watching Michael Baird and Adriano Pellegrino strutting around Pluim!

I think 3 over-age was the NYL rule rather than NPL.

I think you have to be no older than 22 at the start of the calendar year (and to be eligible to play for Australian NTs) to qualify for the NPL academy teams with no exceptions

The NPL are due to play Sutherland at the same time as the GF. Anybody know if we have spoke to Sutherland or applied to NPL NSW to have this re-arranged so that the whole club can be part of the GF?

 

[Ironbark]

Yeah that's harsh on the young players who really should be there

Tonights game against manly. Is it 90 minutes or a resumption ?

I dare say we’ve asked the question, but Sutherland could easily refuse… much the same as a certain WSW academy director did last week after we requested an earlier kick off time

Notwithstanding that their head coach (don't know if he is also the academy director you refer to) having justifiable personal reasons to be unsympathetic, there is also the matter of their precarious position on the table. It makes sense that they would be ruthless and hope we sent a weakened team down (in the end I think James Bayliss was the only one held back).

Hopefully Sutherland are less inclined to be cynical. Maybe we can sweeten things with the offer to go down there for a friendly later in the year or something.
