well we saw how he play for the socceroos on thurs and he did nothing

Lets assume for a moment that you are not some wanker troll.

He stepped up to the CCL, took a while to settle and made his mark. Went up to CCM and again took a while to adjust. Then chipped in with plenty of goals.

So Lawrie, Pim and unknown overseas clubs rate him but you dont. Says more about you than them doesnt it.
If its the clarky i'm thinking of then he's no troll.

Tbf most people on this forum don't rate at least someone on  the team for different reasons I mean hutcho's god but for some reason 1 mb 2 people think he's overrated at best ;)
Personally i think simon  has stepped up and deserves the call ups he's getting he just hasn't done it in a "pretty" style like some of the others he's just efficent works his ass off and gets the results hes paid for He might not hit the pigions from outside the box but he gets the goals sasho n mrdja for exsample dont because he's got heart and hassles defenders and keepers.

just annoying, this time last eason(V3) I thought Matty wasnt up to it, happy to see him excelling beyond many peoples expectations and getting very warranted rewards. Just dont see a need for petty jealousy , hes a local boy that has done extremey well.

sorry mate played against him when he played for the  e/gos  rams he was overrarated than as he is now

LOL, so a few years ago you were playing at the same level as him. Look where you both are now. Says it all really.

100% agree with these quotes.

Lower teams in countries like Holland, France, Belgium would suit more than league 1 or 2. At least they play football and are not hackers.

I don't think we'll see clarky again.  :piralaugh:

lol poor clarky, taking a battering.

He will be back, would take more than a few comments to stop him throwing his opinion around

Matty is not the most technical player.
His assets most definitely suit lower league England moreso then the continent

Thats as embarrassing for you to write as it is funny for the rest of us to read.

So what scintilating league are you now plying your trade AA2 perhaps?

You left out a 2 .. it's AA22

Well having played against and with Matt I can only say how proud I am to see him achieve all the things he has done. He is a great fella very humble , but deternined, focused and is very adaptable to change. He is a good listener. Yes Matt may be over-rated by you Clarkey. But rated very well by those that require his services. Average plasterer though!!!

I hope for both parties that Matt does leave us.
Matt may be a talented player, but he has had only 1 good season with us and being a local junior, we picked him up for nothing.
By leaving it's a win - win situation.
Matt gettting the overseas experience and the Mariners profiting from a transfer fee.

This is true but who will replace him.

There is a big world out there where I am sure would be another striker to replace him.
I'm sure our mates from Sheffield and affiliates would be able to help.

.maybe this clarky fella can go with Matty and get a run too since clarky is so shit hot apparently

(cue phone call to organise insane dutch defender to shadow clarky )

The way Simon is playing at the moment it'd surprise me that anyone would want him. Someone remind me when he last scored a goal?

Stevo from Pohang! If ever there was a player that should be playing on the Central Coast it is Stevo! What a name!

I hope that a CC junior gets the chance to move up in the game and play on a bigger stage.

I hope that a CC junior gets to earn a shit load of $$

I hope that other young kids know it and try to emulate him.

Join the Mariners and we will develop you and help you move forward (in return for a fee of course)

Australian clubs will always be sellers of talent to the "bigger" leagues, its sensible to build it into the business plan

I wouldn't be too sure about that.

It's going back a while, but I've seen a couple of lower league games in Holland and Greece and once you get down a level or two there ain't a lot of pretty football happening!

I reckon Matty would suit the rough and tumble of the lower leagues in England.

I for one hopes he stays.

His touch has improved out of sight and considering the headache balls we feed him most of the time he copes very well.

Top bloke, top player and a real trier.
