Who are the likely top 5 players to watch at the U18 National Championships, boys and girls?
Are these championships in April likely to be live streamed?
Thanks

At U18, these players are still 15,16, 17yo - still too young to refer to them by name in a public forum.

Will the games be livestreamed? I hope so given many family members won't make the trip, many will be fearful of being stuck in Vic - or subject to quarantine back in their home states should a covid outbreak reoccur in Vic during April.
Given these circumstances the organisers should make a bigger effort than usual and get ALL of the games livestreamed, not just the SF and GF.
As regards to the competitive form of the teams, in the girls, VicM has a super strong list this year (but not so much in 2022), particularly the bigs. VicM always play with superior systems and are better drilled than other states. There is an outside chance that training disruptions might dull their usual edge. They might be vulnerable in early pool games vs inspired opposition. Let's see. The next tier sees closer competition between Vic Country, Qld Sth, SA Metro and - possibly - NSW Met. NSW Country has a good list this year and will be more competitive. I don't know WA Met.
