Mariners Squad - HAL 14 - 2018- 2019 - The challenge for Mike Mulvey is over

[Insertnamehere]

Who was the midget down back? I only found a stream in the second half. He might have been RB?

 

[priorpeter]

Nisbet perhaps? Is a CM. Been absolute quality for Academy and NYL over the last year or so. Will hopefully see more of him in the first team.

Agree with all that’s been said. Very impressed by Kekeris’s game, though he and Millar were often not on the same page. Hoole will have to fight for his spot.

Melling was excellent. Dominated and one of our best. Weemac and Matty also in good touch and energetic.

The movement compared to okons regime is vastly superior. Looked like we had purpose and clarity going forward. Less so in the second half, but was too be expected with the changes.

 

[Forum Phoenix]

Oh and Bolt did ok. Ludicrous amount of pressure.

Off field however, was a star marquee that gave us a 10k crowd with a carnival atmosphere. Gold.

 

[BrisRecky]

i reckon Hoole and McGing will be struggling for game time unless the injury bug happens

Let's not get too carried away against a squad of amateurs who haven't played together. We played well given the opposition.
Does it paint a positive picture? Sure. Does it mean much for our season? Nope.

Millar was shown up defensively again as he was against the Jets. I'm not sure McGing is under pressure there Maybe Aspro plays there when he is fit

I know he is not with us this year but he still has a contract BTW I did not edit the entry.

Central Coast Mariners
De Silva joined A-League side Central Coast Mariners in July 2017 on a three-year contract.[14] Daniel De Silva made his first competitive debut for the Mariners in the FFA Cup against Blacktown City, coming on as a substitute in 86th minute. At the start of the 2018/19 season De Silva acted like a baby throwing his toys out of the cot, as he wanted a transfer. This transfer eventually came in a 1-year loan move to Sydney FC in an A-League first. This is now known as the De Silva cry baby rule.

Cruel ..........

The changeroom was a shambles, everybody spat the dummy ......... club sacked his preferred coach ........... he wanted out of the club ......... took a stand ,,,,,,,,,,, I do not share the wikipedia crap.

He's hit a personal ceiling. His attitude is actually pretty decent, but if he loses the childish memes and learns to score goals, he could be something great. He's gotta take the next big step, and it's entirely possible. Sucks, but we weren't the right place to do that. Still, f**k him and all that.

All I read was blah blah blah FK him.
I was all for him until he 'went on strike' and frankly my position of FK him is now unlikely to change.
So I'm all for the 10 minutes of slagging he'll cop on wiki. The bots will have edited it out shortly.

Oh I'm all for that, I have very little time for the mug. Life is always more complex than a post on a forum, I think he'll find plenty of challenges to overcome in his own way.

Also f**k DDS.

Will be very interesting to see what happens when the Italian window opens.

Not carried away.

Took the opposition into account and can see why we drew with the scum last week. We look like a football team again.

Seen enough football to be able to tell when players look sharp, are making good decisions with good movement and chemistry, regardless of their opposition. Several were. Thats all.

They usually fall out of the frame. Most things in Italy are shonky as f**k.

Me and the wife booked a trip to Greece from Holland on the train. They warned me to go via Germany as the service is much better than via Italy. Being stubborn i didnt listen.................big mistake. The Italian train was shambolic. Over 100c and only the food carridge had working air con and cold beer. Train kept breaking down.....ended up paying double for a sleeping cabin to escape the annoying locals and to get some cool.

Oh !!! ........... that explains why you went for the ice ???

 

[Wombat]

Never touch the stuff Offy. Poison for the feeble minded. "Just say no" buddy.

 

[Antlion]

I'm hanging out for any signing news now. The team clearly needs its remaining preseason time to gel so getting everyone in as soon as possible will be invaluable

There is no way that McGing and Hoole will be under threat whilst Millar and McDonald are there. Neither of them are up to A League standard although Millar at least is something to work with (he's closer to HAL than Bolt atm). Aspro will not play RB unless Mulvey works miracles with him - he is more likely to play CB over Cisse than RB over McGing.
