[Antlion]

I'm not renewing until we sign Cathy Freeman

Too old - Sally has the connection to Bolt

She's WAS the fastest of the Teletubbies


BUT ,

'Sunflower' is the better communicator on the pitch hands down !
..... that and the obvious club colours.

 

[Rowdy]

Considering what we've currently got and rumoured to get

Then ........ Yes PLEASE !!!

 

[Yorkshire Mariners FC]

Considering what we've currently got and rumoured to get
Then ........ Yes PLEASE !!!

Plus, he is an Australian Citizen.

He is on the decline. Wasn’t very good last season. Another Weemac. Running out of teams and performances are not what they used to be.
So lock him in

Too old - Sally has the connection to Bolt

She can jump the tackles as well

 

[Michael]

Carrusca is very very classy, but agree that he’s probably past it now..

That's never stopped us signing anybody before...

 

[Rowdy]

Albeit Carrusca isnt a 90 min player

...... but neither was Fabio Ferreira

Would create more than what Hoole would out wide, & as well as deliver better balls in to the box for Simo

 

[JoyfulPenguin]

I think Carrusca could be a good signing but only on $100,000 or below, he is a very good impact player and improved the Wanderers substantially last season, but we already have McGlinchey in his position and he would also take away development time away from Shabow. Unfortunately with the Phoenix and the Wanderers in competition for his signature I fear we would be easily out bid.

 

[Rowdy]

Plan B
- & as you said only for a good price

Okon's 'Plan B':
- of 'doing Plan A better', just wont cut it for another season.

We've assembled a squad of injured, journeymen and some unprovens as yet + a few youth as well.

With space available, citizenship sorted & knowing we are nowhere near the cap
..... Carrusca could be a good/experienced 'squaddie' for injury replacement or if others just aren't cutting the mustard.

Would keep Hoole on his toes & looking over his shoulder

 

[Rowdy]

I have a sneaking suspicion that Mulvey's rumored plan/idea of bringing in unwanted Brisb Roar GK, Michael Theo may now be less likely, with the news of The Scum's Jack Duncan exiting gor big $$'s in Saudi Arabia:

Runners-up last season looks a better destination than CCM, for a multi-Championship winning player like Theo.

Maybe the condition of a guaranteed GK Coaching position afterward could be the deal clincher for us to get him
- otherwise its down to the sweet talking 'Scotsman of Scumsville'

If Mulvey is set on wanting another keeper, which honestly is horrendously dumb considering we will then have 4 players when at max one player can actually play per week when we need to be using every cent we can find in the best way possible, then Chris Oldfield would be a good signing. He would accept a minimum wage contract, and is a very, very good goalkeeper who is now a naturalized Australian citizen.

 

[priorpeter]

Ha. He had a couple of super-salty rants on twitter the other night about the a-league. Seems to have deleted a number of his tweets now though.

To be fair, 2 would just be on minimum wage and i guess Gauci has been taken on as a long term investment. Really BK is the only HAL standard keeper we have at the moment and even then.......

Searched his own name and went and liked a bunch of tweets too

Bk was fine, he just forgets which club he pays for.
So we put in a sub when we play the jets and then we only get slightly smashed

Glover was on for the first one i think? Even still, fair point.
Real shame we couldn't keep hold of Izzo.

Izzo still looks lost on set pieces IMO, how long does it take? Maybe he will never be good at them. In open play he is good.
