Would Cahill have made 'it' if he came through the current system?

Arguably one of our best players ever does not exactly fit the mould of the the new dutch system. He is not exactly technically astute nor is he a flair driven or creative type of player. He relies upon his off the ball skills , brilliant leap and ability to be in the right place at the right time.

This is one of the problems I see with the current system is that players like Cahill who is recognized on a world stage and at one point was easily this nations best player wouldn't exactly get a gig in Bergers set up.

Meanwhile, everyone else just gets the fuck on with the job at hand.



There is a chasm between what we had in Australia before and now European based methodology.

The way FFA implement it as it goes down through the ranks maybe a problem though. It seems too prescriptive and some stakeholders are using it as an exercise to wield power. This may be the way Frank Lowy operates Westfields.
