How we simultaneously have the best youth team in the league yet not have any youth players who are ready to step up. Other franchises with less impressive youth teams seem to have several youth players ready to step up

Could be more to do with the seniors than the youth. IMO our senior squad is being carried by no more than 7 players. Whereas the clubs you are talking about can introduce a young player for all or part of a game and still have 10 decent A-League players around him, we cannot and therefore in our case any mistakes he makes are likely to be magnified.

Youth team success should be measured in the players that are ready for senior football. trophies are meaningless at this level

I also heard our team has the oldest average age

We may have the oldest squad but we arguably have the two best young players who have emerged this season and have become critical to our starting 11
