Cumdog & Garang are in the squad.

 

[Holy]

Cummings, Kuol and Danny are in. Well done boys, so proud

 

[FFC Mariner]

Stens was always going to struggle but thought Sains was nailed on

 

[yellowcake]

Tears of f**king joy for the boys!! And 3 more whose first senior professional contract was here.
We are somebody

Joel King being picked is embarrassing, been riding the pine while Jason Davidson has been getting minutes in a better league and frankly is leaps and bounds ahead of King, when King played for Sydney he was always getting absolutely rinsed, don’t rate him at all

Sainsbury is yesterday's man who opted to play in a 3rd rate league (and one that meant he was going to be inactive for a couple of months.pre-cup) just for the $$$$. He is behind Kye, Souttar and Deng for me now.

Mind you I would still have taken him in front of Degenek although Stens might have been preferable to both given his age and versatility

I’m proud of you Arnie, didn’t think he had it in him. Read somewhere that three Socceroos at a World Cup is a record for any A League team.

 

[VonBowellski]

3 from us and 3 from Hearts in Scotland

 

[sydmariner]

No Tom Rogic there’s definitely something up there.

I agree at face value but suspect this is building for the future. Davidson is 31 as is Behich. He’s unlikely to be in for the next cycle.

Now it’s debatable whether King will be there anyway, I would argue Bos and Farrell are both on track to surpass him if their current growth continues.
