    The System in Australia. High JR fees to support Snr NPL teams and no investment into the miniroos programs.

    Because you don’t advance to the top levels in Australian football on ability.
    It’s a mixture of embarrassingly poor tactical and technical knowledge and blatant nepotism by coaches and clubs.

    why do we completely ignore that the socceroos had arguably their best World Cup run in history in 2022? 2 clean sheets, goals in every game, made it out of a group with France and Denmark, only lost to the eventual winners 2-1.

    Next season we might have 3 players playing in the EPL if they are all promoted. Souttar (Leicester City) Burgess & Luongo (Ipswich Town)
    2 players in the Bundesliga. Irvine & Metcalfe (St.Pauli)
    And 1 player in Serie A. Circati (Parma)
    Things are not as bad as everyone is making out. Also Tilio & Irankunda were both left out of the olyroo squad who are the 2 best young attacking players we have so it's no surprise we struggled going forward.

    Football in this country constantly shoots itself in the foot..junior levels require financial support to help with costs to families..Australia can no longer rely on a crop of young superstar just appearing..it takes support from the governing body to encourage kids to play..some sports are footing the bills to kids on board..

All our good young home grown players leave. Television coverage is pathetic. Salary cap means we can't attract world class players. No second division with promorion and relegation. Nothing happens or changes. What's not to like?

    It's football in general that's heading down hill , its all posession ,touch pass ,touch pass ,touch pass ,that's easy ,you literally need nothing special about you to play professionally, compare today's football say in the premierleague to the past with players like Romario,Ronaldo,ginola,gascoine,
    ronaldinho, to say Phil foden , grelish, rice, the current stars are good players but they do nothing special compared to a proper skillful past footballer , we will never get better while the game is in this current state of posession.

      Also if it’s because of the branding and naming of the men’s and women’s leagues, well the AFL and NRL do the same kind of thing and it’s not an issue.
