I watch frank train at 96 training grounds and he goes quite well,always in goal for a practice game with the squad.however with robert enke (german 3rd keeper) he wont get a start.made some bench appearances the last weeks.maybe this weekend he could start.last game,96 have nothing to play for.perth would be great for him, he will be successful.like covic has.

There is no better club for him. Under Jurgen Klopp, Dortmund have the youngest side in the league with many players born in 1988, Subotic,Schmelzer and Hummels provide a young,rock solid defence. Grosskreutz and Sahin are also 88 born, who are regular midfielders. Klopp is the master of young talent.

Langerak will probably be second choice after Weidenfeller. Ziegler has gone to Stuttgart and Höttecke has moved to Union Berlin. Klopp is known for throwing rookies into the thick, and they have become great players. Langerak to do the same!

The question is were you right or wrong?

back then I bought the narrative that the reason we weren't good at football was it wasn't popular. Football was getting popular so it stood to reason we would get better

How I evolved
1) learning from "bitters" (hate that term) about some of the initiatives we did for youth that got canned in the a league era (h&a nyl, having more aussie players, ais, p&r for 20 years, underage teams which were missing from a league). I played football in cairns, so never had the pleasure of watching an nsl game since it wasn't on tv. Even socceroos games I would miss because I had trouble finding out when they were on and how to watch in the pre google era. I learnt about the nsl purely during the a league era and watched some old nsl matches on youtube
2) learning from decentric and the ntc as well as some euro coaching courses about youth coaching and why we struggled with producing technical players. Yes the ntc is controversial, but it is best practice and similar to continental europe (even england aren't too different these days) and we are seeing an uptick in young talent at roughly the time you would expect from the ntc. A centralized system can never replace the innovation that comes from a real competitive environment fostered by p&r though
3) analysing the data in the nsl in a more nuanced way and realizing the decline was plausibly a delayed reaction to scrapping p and r. All the academic research I read on p&r had predictions of what would happen which could be seen by analysing nsl data. One prediction is an improvement in quality
4) listening to how scouts talk about good players who hit a certain age. If you aren't starting regularly by u24 in a 2nd tier euro league it is almost always too late, even if you are good enough (sorry nisbet and ballard). Cahill had an extra year because he was born late december. Also for every 1 young promising player starting in a second tier that makes it to a higher level, there are 3 that never do. So you need a large pipeline since development is fundamentally unpredictable
