    ccmfans.net is the Central Coast Mariners fan community, and was formed in 2004, so basically the beginning of time for the Mariners. Things have changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained constant and that is our love of the Mariners. People come and go, some like to post a lot and others just like to read. It's up to you how you participate in the community!

It only takes a few minutes, and joining will let you post your thoughts and opinions on all things Mariners, Football, and whatever else pops into your mind. If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.

    ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

Edmo knows where the net is. Not all strikers do. All we have to do is get the team on his wavelength or him on the team's wavelength.
I want to see more of Brandtman. Future #10. I cannot remember the team ever having as many forwards on the books as we do now.
Ronald looks like he could claim the RW spot.
Lots of quality youth giving depth.

Not convinced by Ronald yet. Big Ed and Brandtman though. Those two are quality.

Edmondson made so many quality runs tonight and the team ignored almost all of them. His off the ball movement is above Cummings level, if we can train the team to see/predict the runs and make the pass he will bang goals for fun.

There are 3 players that are the top candidates for playing him in, Niz, Ballard and Torres, yet I think it'll be Faz that finds him the most. The development in Faz this season is incredible and it feels like there's more to come.

I'm seriously impressed with Edmo, he's levels above the Aleague, but someone needs to step up and find his runs. He's even pointing exactly where he wants it.

In other news, sadly I don't think Ronald is gonna make the cut. Reminds me of Paul Ayongo, lots of effort not much product. Let's hope I'm wrong.

is it me or is he very unbalanced? Not enough grit or strength on the ball?
I know what you mean, gets pushed off the ball a bit.

He looks a bit lost and holds the ball too long. There's quality there and moments of brilliance but I'm doubtful we can develop him sufficiently in a few months.

Definitely not a basket case, but I'm not holding my breath.

Brandtman is class and crucially has the character to succeed. I’ve been extremely impressed with how quickly he’s gone up absolute levels over the last 12 months. More plz.
He was very good tonight, I think we'll be seeing more of that, I hope so.
