My initial post was tongue in cheek. I guess my big gripe about the whole JHS thing is that he's been passed on for years and I really believe he could have been a solid A league player and we missed out.
I'm all for giving Academy kids a chance. But I don't think targeting kids and the best performing players from the domestic league are mutually exclusive, especially when you're not bringing in Marquees from overseas. There's something to be said about domestic players who may be a bit older, but also more mature and have been part of winning teams that could really benefit us.
