Formidable +3 (4.5wk talent)

Jobe Grella, age: 19
value: 100 000 AU$, wage: 1 520 AU$
club: Snappa Serpents, country: Australia
very good form, tragic tactical discipline

average stamina, tragic keeper
adequate pace, solid defender
average technique, average playmaker
average passing, tragic striker

My best junior pull so far and I'm training defenders in pace atm so he fits right in.

wow he sucks for an outstanding naph. Unlucky mate. Would be gun if he was 17 though I suppose.

Total levels add up to 35 which is pretty good for an outstanding. The distribution does make him fairly unplayable at the moment though. I imagine he'd most benefit from being picked up by a PM/defending trainer and being turned into a defender.

Edit: I take that back... 35 would be decent for an excellent, its definitely low for an outstanding... should be closer to 40

poor stamina, very good keeper
hopeless pace, tragic defender
tragic technique, hopeless playmaker
average passing, tragic striker

Solid (3.5w talent)

What do you think of him?

Probably the nicest distribution of talent you can get for a keeper (as so few coaches are actually keeper trainers) Should bump every other week in pace for his first 4 levels and not much slower for the next 5. If you can convince a keeper trainer that his talent is indeed 3.5w then he should get you some nice $$$

Elias Aloisi formidable 16 Reject

That was his 6th pop, so you can imagine how talented he is.

Looks like a near-unearthly youth...

I'm jealous :P

That's huge, potential NT player I would think - not that I would know.

I thought I was going well with this one, his 7th pop today.

Kevin Rudnicki formidable 9 Reject

I thought he may get to brilliant but I think he'll be a week short.

Two youths.

Both Transfer Listed.

Pulled as solid +3

For Sale

Talent?

4 or 5 i think?

I've got a predicted magical due soon:

Clint Rayner outstanding 10 Reject

Works out as exactly magical, but we'll see what happens. I could live with a brilliant :P

Vince Hill formidable 2 Reject
Sal Foxe very good 2 Reject
Andrew McPharlin excellent 3 Reject
Lucas Lane outstanding 3 Reject

Not too much on the horizon after those, so hopefully at least one of them (Lane in particular) turns out significantly better than Harrop did

Mate, if that's what you call a dry spell... I have NO juniors coming out in the next 3 weeks.
