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

[adz]

Uploads may be a bit munted at the moment - been meaning to fix that but haven't gotten around to it

Wales apparently signed with $ity weeks ago but it is unclear why they haven’t announced it. CCM has nothing to announce as he wasn’t a contracted player, so they will no doubt not want to add to members’ concerns about ins and outs with memberships having only just gone on sale.

Personally I can’t see DDS staying with CCM and I don’t think the club is prepared to beg him to not leave if he isn’t 100% up for the challenge. What Danny needs to realise is that he could potentially reap a lot of benefit to his character by sticking it out here and putting in the hard yards rather than chasing perceived visions of glory somewhere else, which is something he has arguably been doing since he left Glory.

Very good point

This is current as of 2 hours ago says De SIlva is still part of CCM Squad.

Central Coast Mariners:
Confirmed Squad: Adam Pearce, Ben Kennedy; Alan Baro, Antony Golec, Jake McGing, Kye Rowles, Jack Clisby, Jonathan Aspropotamitis; Adam Berry, Tom Hiariej, Jacob Melling, Daniel De Silva, Andrew Hoole, Connor Pain, Corey Gameiro, Matt Simon

Pearce is now out of contract

Pearce is now out of contract

Like the game day squads published by ffa before games .......... this is a very unreliable source of information.

 

[Insertnamehere]

More than likely the drama surrounding DDS is contractual with Roma. They may not want to divest there interest in him which ruins his chance with city as I believe they wanted to pay their interest out. Thee could also be a massive gap between what they think he's worth and what he thinks he's worth.

I can't see any one but citeh paying Roma out.

Yeah. Point is Roma may not agree to it and he could be stuck with us. If i was at Roma and the city football group came knocking I'd pilfer them silly

Not sure how correct Wikipedia is but it does say Wales's current team is Melbourne City

Hard to put too much stock in that when you see the original edit

Get Rostyn in, recruit a quality keeper and use our import spots for a decent ten and a decent nine. That should make a solid spine.

Rostyn next to Tom is exactly what we need. We get dominated aerially by most sides in the middle of the park and we’ve been too easily outmuscled on set pieces at both ends for the past few seasons.

That and poor delivery has made our corners all but a complete waste of time, which when combined with one of the only things we've consistently had, pacey wingers, was incredibly frustrating.

Two proper sized cbs a big DM and Simon would have a significant impact on those areas and translate to a very valuable difference in both defence and attack across a season I think.

Also would help free Tom and our 10 to have an imposing DM to challenge and knock down balls. I liked wout but he wasn’t that imposing.

Still need somebody that can kick a stationary ball in their general direction

Just been told we've paid out Baro's contract and he has left. Hope not!

Back on the fence for me ???? ............ why would his contract be paid out??? That would indicate they wanted him to leave ????

Maybe the fact he wasn’t carrying an injury and didn’t want to went against him

Just had the same conversation with my "source". He may be confused as the reason is family related apparently. I think he's misunderstood and Alan has paid it out?

 

[marinermick]

If it true about Baro we sure have plenty of cap space to play with, even if at the cap floor.

Was going to say not again with paying players who aren’t playing for us when we don’t pay the cap.

 

[Big Al]

Last player out can you take the nets down.
Wombats dog can’t reach

 

[Tevor]

Cornthwaite has just retired at 32 years of age, I recall seeing him in some of the prospect lists. Baro gone and no Cornflake option, this will be interesting how we build our back line back up and around Golec I recall MMM saying.

 

[Wombat]

Lets see what MMM has found overseas. I'd also be making enquiries about Alex Grant and Shane Lowry from Perth.

I'm not pleased to lose Baro as he was a good player and a proper defender.

Who is Alan

 

[aussiem]

No Baro on CCM team web page....actually not a big web page at the moment although lots of coaches and staff

 

[Gratis]

Wow. Very interesting days. At least we'll have hope at the beginning of the new season - with a basically brand new team you just have to hope they can play!
