You do see some of that and I know what you are saying. Some of the club's that also grade at the lower levels foster that sort of thing and then you get the idiots out there coaching and then you see what happens out there on the field.

I've been a Australian rules football person all my life, it's only that my youngest is looking at soccer and we have some family friends who kids are playing U/9 that we come out and watch a bit.

Strange world soccer.

What do you notice are the biggest differences between junior soccer and aussie rules.

I hardly noticed any difference the one year I played Soccer in my teens.
(Basically I played goalie, because I couldn't dribble the thing.)

So, my strategy (worked out with the wingers) was to dash out as soon as the ball entered the scoring zone, grab it, then fall back a bit and drop kick it to whichever wingman had broken out into space. The backspin on a drop kick has an interesting effect on the round ball's trajectory lengthening your range. The English kids always claimed I was "charging" them to win possession but the referees never pinged me.

It came about because there were enough English kids at the school to form a team, the Greek and Italian kids combined, but the eastern Europeans were scratching to form a team for the school "internal league", and so I thought I'd have a go.

I came out of a side street to Goodwood rd next to westbourne park oval, and there was a lane closed. I indicate straight away to merge as you do, and the bitch behind be accelerated immediately to close the gap. Jokes on her, my car is shit so I merged anyway with a proud upright bird pointing in her direction in the rear view mirror. F..king cow.

It's an all over SA thing, in Queensland you can indicate with a car almost alongside you and they will pull back and let you in. SA drivers are wankers

Parents, your child being out of their comfort zone once in a blue moon is not a bad thing.
