    This team has done really well bring in young ones to replace the like of Costa(what a waste of 16 mils) Roberts and save the dollars for when we are ready to hit the highs.
    We can blood more kids but we need more quality in the team to allow them to fit in to the gaps to ensure we don't just go down

    But we have decent enough players Keeper tick Koch tick Phillips tick Bamf tick the core is there we just need the young ones to step up.
    If we are safe bring them in and see what they have as you never know with better players around them they can improve out of sight. I agree with Shak he doesn't offer much why does he keep playing him and not give another a chance. Same goes with Costa Roberts those sort of players we know what they can do which isn't much so like I said when we are safe last 10 games blood some young ones.
    I agree with your assessment of the team but you can't make a great team overnight. If next season we finish and play the same I would be happy with say 4 young ones blended in.
    Anyway, these are our thoughts I doubt the club would listen so we have to wait and see but see the same dribble playing all the time well makes me sick.

    I thought you mean to just sign nobody and play our kids for next two years.

    I agree, once we are safe I'd like to see one or two more get a chance in the team particularly likes of Gelhardt, Huggins, Drameh, Summerville and Nohan Kenneh. Just to see if they've got it, I'm particularly keen to see the two full backs in Huggins and Drameh start to get minutes as if those two are capable of stepping up next season when needed then we only need to sign a left back for our defense.

    You cant always build a team by buying sometimes it's best to look inside the box. Sure if they don't come up fair enough go outside the box.

    The nope tight third between us and the rugby. The Local football is just too popular and doesn't know why but cricket comes second.
    When we had Vaduka Kewell Neal and the likes playing for the national team we were drawing 100k in the big stadium. Just the local league suffers as any decent players move to Europe and in reverse we get has been so cant progress. Still, though my club when we are going good we draw 30 k a match so for Australia thats pretty damn good.
