Yeah I know, I was just voicing what you were implying.
Yeah I haven't heard many (any) positive things about STIC regarding selection criteria. We really haven't learned anything, the way things are progressing we are heading for a heap of young adults with very little talent.

The AC u16 JPL coach wasnt sacked. He is returning to Italy to continue his studies.
Now. Back to the thread. Where were we?
An email from the club to parents suggests you're wearing rose coloured glasses.
Would you like me to paste that email here?
Or would that complicate things?
Kro seems to have disappeared off the earth.
Next time either don't mislead or STFU.
Wondering how Cornflakes Ricky is travelling out there?
Word is that the club has already decided that Cornflakes isn't part of next year's plans after the events of the past year.
I guess he will " be resigning to pursue other interests" or is he going to Italy to study too?
