Mariners Squad 2022/2023

[Big Al]

Still got a pretty potent attack with good sub options. Have to say the attack looks stronger now

Moreshe Theo DWH in

Ayongo Rhus out

 

[Big Al]

An experienced mid would be a good addition

and I wonder if we could get Smith back from MV to cover Farrell

and I wonder if we could get Smith back from MV to cover Farrell

We really need to be recruiting with the expectation Farrell will get a move in 6-12 months. For me it means we should be looking at the academy or other academies if we dont have someone ready.

Smith would be a good get back. He covered LB and LM nicely and had some real onfield chemistry till he got hurt.

As for Ruhs, we need forwards who look likely to score. Great worker but thats about it. A runner in football boots. And we know a thing or 2 about them.

Don't have a stand out left back in the Academy yet so hopefully is made a recruitment priority in the off-season.

Bang on to sign with Perth

And to have as much impact as hatchy has had over there.
if you’re 19-20 and get shitty when better players are signed in your area because you yourself haven’t performed, that’s an awful attitude and won’t take you far. Ruhs is a rough gem and this was the best place for him to develop, big mistake from the young man.
monty and staff clearly take attitude and personality first and foremost. There’s plenty of evidence supporting this.
I certainly don’t mind the ruthlessness.

I’d be keeping an eye on the LB in yesterdays academy game, George something (last name escapes me right now)
Yes, he did have a tough time defensively against his winger but I saw some positives with his technique and go forward and even a few good defensive moments. Will watch very closely going forward.

January

Fairly sure our deadline is tomorrow. I'll try and find something.

Would love Smitty back.

 

[VonBowellski]

As a professional athlete, a certain level of skill and return on investment and performance is expected. If the player can't do that with the multiple opportunities they have been given, then for me it is so long and good luck.

Cheers mate, I thought from last year it was some time in Feb.

I don't recall saying good luck ?

 

[ConsKrypt]

Of course the appeal was denied...

 

[Corsair]

Would love Smitty back.

Second this, he was on an upward trajectory with us and has since festered in obscurity in Mexico

 

[Corsair]

Cheats. Determined to get a Sydney team in the final.

 

[turbo]

OToole mutually terminated with Sydney. Wonder if we’ve been looking at him for depth? Don’t love the idea but it would make sense

 

[Big Dog]

Interesting that is was by mutual agreement. Seems to me on the first glance he may have asked for the move or at least voiced his displeasure at the opportunities and told to either work hard or look elsewhere. Purely conjecture though.
On a positive note I spoke to Moresche yesterday and he is very hopeful of getting game time against Brisbane. Obviously a long way back for him but would love to see a fit front third of Cummings, Túlio, DWH, Moresche, Silvera / Benny

Behave, faz is good he's strong on the ball and good on the defence but nowhere nere leaving the team for greater things. One of the worst crossing of the ball in the a league

Believe his recent performances sealed his fate.
