Good points
The big question ?
Why are we not getting our young men in national World Cup squads?
The very few we have got in have had to go up north or apfa when it was here to get selected for training squads or final squad.
you just have to look at the Onehunga boys that get selected ( wynrs or well nix)
Western suburbs (ole) and obviously the lads from the Phoenix academy's.
I still believe that the clubs could invest in similar paths as these academy's ,I don't know the correct pathway or answer.
One thing that is for certain is we are not getting our kids recognised at national level.
All I here in Christchurch is we have a lot of developing clubs or coaches, developing for what?
