The other truth is that Emo isn't that great and if he's Australia's standout they've got serious issues.


For me Nelsen is one of our greatest players. The fact that someone mentioned Emerton was their best player, was I'm sure in the last couple of games. He is playing well, but players have ups and downs.
I know that if he was an AW he would be 2nd pick behind RN. I'm sure that you think Oz football is no good, but you are wrong as there are many young players in sides overseas, just as there are heaps of Kiwis in Europe etc.


And how many of these young players are going to end up 25 and back in the A-League

Jedinak and Ognenovski have done well but they aren't youngsters. Burns and maybe Kilkenny are probably the only ones making a good fist of it

Oar, Sarota and Zullo could go either way but i'm sure Zullo will be back sooner than later

Leckie has the most potential

Really, Aussie football isn't in amazing shape at the moment. Their 'golden generation' are slowly fading away and the youngsters haven't totally stepped up yet.valeo2011-01-21 14:59:06
