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.

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.
Don’t be so sure that’s the same agency that Maxi was with when we negotiated his contract extension in 2022.I don't think this was the clubs fault. He wanted to move. I would definitely be barring Balard's agent from ever doing business with the club again though.

Yep it’s swings and roundabouts, you can’t always sell every good player. You try as much as you can and take what you can get.
There’s definitely something to be said for spending more short term to reap the rewards. If we can offer max an extra 100k per season for an extension then pocket a modest fee we are in front. Teams with deeper pockets don’t seem to have an issue doing that.
I wish Ballard well and hope he is successful.
Never forget he got dragged at half time on his starting debut by Staj I think it was..Comunicado oficial
Treble winning midfielder Max Balard departs for overseas opportunity
The Central Coast Mariners can confirm the departure of treble winning midfielder Max Balard, with the 23-year-old leaving the club to pursue overseas opportunities. Although Max is contracted for another year on the Coast, at the time of signing that...ccmariners.com.au
His contract expired, it’s a free transfer, best we can hope for is he gets a big transfer after doing well with NAC, we’d then get a development % as he came through our academy. Same theoretical situation with Niz.
It’s a three year deal so some security as well. Very driven young man so I’m also keen to watch how he goes.
"Although Max is contracted for another year on the Coast, at the time of signing that extension the Club agreed to allow Balard a free transfer after the 2023/24 season if he wished to pursue an opportunity abroad. "
Maybe - but you can always have a free transfer with sell-on clauses. Means the player can go os when he gets the chance, the buying club has no exposure and we get compensation if he gets a big money transfer. I'm sure player arrivals and departures press releases are deliberately vague.
This has its own risks.
Yeah thanks, also any rumours on potential signings yet?
Few changes within the coaching ranks. Couple of players coming in on trial that I’ve got no info on.
Can you expand on this or is it super sekrit stuff?
My bad, confused him with nizzy.
