Are people on here kidding

And the kids that have come from another club have performed exceptionally better than their previous club. I think devlopment is long term and continuing, there is always room for improvement.
Yes, clubs should be grateful where kids got their grass roots from, but the talent lies within themselves, not their club.
I know one certain junior, who was a club in the southern area, played div 3's and is a big player, came to Forestville, has been worked with and is one standout junior.
Maybe also, smithy and others, clubs thrive and kids thrive if they are happy, hence why Forestville and Sturt are proud to have them.

Anon,

I was actually praising Fville for the players they have produced.
I think their coaches do a great job with developing talent.

Your completely right Smithy.

Sturt has done horribly to ONLY win Champion Junior Club twice in the last 3 -4 years.

And Forrestville should have a real good hard look at themselves after producing maybe the greatest State League player of the modern era in Jason Dix, and the best rookie player in the NBL this year (both Forrestville juniors).

I am sure your informative and completely factual post will jolt both clubs into getting off their collective behinds and doing better because clearly the results aren't good enough!

Until then here is a link for you to learn how to cross stitch in five minutes to cue your boredom from all the Sturt/Forrestville talk:
