Rd 2 - Adelaide Diving Team v Treble Winning CCM

[Rising Sun]

Worthy of a million dollar fee a d NAC Breda would have still considered it a bargain 😢

I hope the trade-off for releasing him on a free transfer was that we demanded a hefty sell-on percentage. If we did then that might actually turn out to be a shrewd bit of business

 

[FFC Mariner]

We didn't 'release' him. His contract expired and he was free to sign for whoever he wanted and pocket a much bigger signing on fee.
He is a very smart boy and needs to milk this career for everything he can

I think you need to accept that some of our best talents for a long time left on their own accord and we will not get anything other than back to back and a treble. Long live those memories.

What we got was excellent players for very low salaries.

I also want to see them return to the club after they are finished OS to make more memories.

 

[turbo]

Could be some training compensation / solidarity type payments if he makes the NT.

Ideally with fully-functioning pecs.

There is one in particular who is not far from that point, who I’m reliably informed very much wants to finish up here.

Faz definitely coming back haha he said so after last season.

I hope it's Moresche, I feel like he didn't get a proper go. I don't think Mat Ryan will come back, though it would have been nice to replace Vuka this season in the ACL Elite.

Jason Cummings, maybe?

That must be one the greatest prick teases of all time!

Ibini? Duke? Ferrara? Surely a striker....?

Tell me it's Urena...pleeease!

A gloveman? Mat must be getting close now.

Very interesting...

I assume you can't say who, can you give us an idea of when it could be a possibility (next season for example)?

 

[priorpeter]

Yup. Not an immediate thing by any means but will be useful when we sell DPC for squillions. He’s tempted for another year in Brugge first, if there’s a need for him.

That would be perfect. Still good enough for them where he is loved and then finish here in 2 or 3 years time.

We can do a straight swap and give them DPC for Mat and some Cash. They love a CCM keeper as much as we do.

My only concern would be going to WSW as like Duke they weren’t around then but not sure if his mum is still at Seven Hills or where ever it is around there he is from.

Although his mum might be ready for retirement at Coppa. Albo is looking to rent it 😂

He would be perfect in the Vuka role when this crop is ready to dominate in 2 years

No timeline on it, just a spoken desire from the player’s end. Be nice for everything to align for it to happen like the way it did with Vuka. Nice to know it’s where he wants to end up though.

He's Cummings home

Duke?.

 

[Spacks]

Duke?.

Do we really need another pressing striker? We need a proper #9 who can finish.

 

[Allreet?]

He's Cummings home, he's Cummings home he's Cummings...
Jason's Cummings home etc

Look forward to singing that.

 

[priorpeter]

Duke’s turned down more than one opportunity to return in the past. Mind you, so did Vuka, 6 years before his eventual return. Isn’t hindsight wonderful - getting vuka back in 2022 worked out vastly better than if we’d succeeded in signing him in 2016.

Not convinced that Jase would be as open to a return now that Mont is gone, but never say never I guess.
