Shopping list for the January window

[NoDiggity]

Correct on all counts. We deregister him in Jan and start again.

Thanks INH.

Can someone more knowledgeable than me explain the injury replacement rules for the a-league? If Ross is injured & is a loan player and he goes home & doesn’t return, I assume we stop paying him and this frees up the rest of his contract $ and also a spot in the squad to fill? But doesn’t necessarily mean we need to buy another striker correct? Thanks

Also if he is injured and we get a injury replacement while he is still on the books then we have to pay both. Hence we don’t do it as we can’t or won’t afford that.

I heard on one of the games the other day it takes a 3 month injury for insurance to pay which then you can use that money as you have been reimbursed.

Hence every 5-6 week injury we never get a replacement as we’d need to pay both.

Fortunately (not from a playing perspective) we have 3-4 wks till window opens and we can't take on any new players till then.

It seems to have taken quite a while since Ross has been unable to train/play for a decision to be made that the knee is serious.

Am I being a cynic or is it convenient for all parties that now he has to go back home for an operation?

Was all this time needed for a diagnosis of the knee or to work out a separation?

In a loan deal, I am curious as to how the medical insurance works, and also how an injury replacement works.

In our case, it is not how it works as much as it is how mc can apply it to minimise his costs blah blah blah.

The list of incompetent decisions post phelan’s appointment is staggering. The reason he was so long unemployed may have been for a reason outside of his ability to control. Could it be that he is just another mc bad notion on the cheap.

The rumours post bolt are also not what the rusted on fan should be pleased about and the silence from management is deafening.

There you go “ offy knockers” ......... fodder for you........... take your minds of the weekends game

You’re welcome

Disnwe ever hear anything about Taveras ankle and he was walking in a moon boot telling fans he was stuffed.

Don’t expect anything more from the club on McCormack

Up front I want to say I want to keep Ross and Tom (hopefully the crap going on now can be resolved). From January I assume that Aspro will be ready and hopefully Ross will be back

So where are our real problems now. 3-4-3 seems to be a good formation with our current but we need more creativity and a better keeper. However, we have only 1 open spot. We need a keeper to move on and to sign a better one, we need a top class 10 and if Ross goes we need a prolific striker .

The other tweak I would do would to play 1-2 not 2-1 up front.

------------------New Keeper--------------
-------Aspro-------Cisse------Rowles-------
Millar-----Hiariej------O'Neill---------Pain
--------------------New visa 10------------------
-----------Murray-----------McCormack or new visa striker------

with Kennedy, Gauci, McGing, Clisby, Macdonald, Melling, Berry, Oar, Simon, Gamiero, McGlinchey, Kekeris, Hoole, Shabow

Nail, head etc.

what rumours Offy?

Earlier on here there was mention of some discourse as to the reason young left the scene. Not enough time for him to do his real job preparing the team etc while having to prepare the bolt.???

Try and keep up lad

January is nearing and the shit will hit the fan soon ............ something has to give if there are no wins

 

[Michael]

Usually the loaning club (us) can terminate a loan player at any point for what ever reason. I’d be shocked if Ross returns. 5 weeks plus the couple weeks to get back upto fitness etc.

Take the opportunity to get in someone else.

 

[Insertnamehere]

Still need a 9 and a 10.

 

[NoDiggity]

A new owner

 

[Tevor]

A whole new team, this one is broken. Surely it’s still within warranty.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

injury replacement required list:
Ross
Gamiero
Aspro

[FFC Mariner]

No money, no signings apparently.

Surely you mean we need 9 or 10.

Stop calling me Shirley.
No both. Need a passer and a scorer.
