Who would bring back to the Jets?

[Jetmaster]

Of all the ex Jets around the A-League, who would you most like to return?

[plague]

They all left for a reason.
None would come back here.
The place stinks.
Close thread.

[Jetmaster]

Geez Plague - I hadn't even finished posting and you shat on my poll !

[borat]

Nathan Burns and Jimmy Holland for mine.

And Okon.

Not even a haiku.

I award you no points, and may <insert deity here> have mercy on your soul

S.D Haiku king

Im fsirly sure it was 2

[Jetmaster]

The caveat is they are currently playing A-League for other clubs.

Well at least I didn't get pwned.

That's a far sicker burn yeah?

+1 for poll having slobs option
-1 for poll not having Eags option

Elrich, Carney, North and Durante are all past their best, maybe not so much Tarek.
Holland and Reddy as a GK are probably at their peak playing years now while the others are still relatively young and on the up in their careers, that is why I would go for Taggart, Brillante or Holland. Taggart is the obvious one but he has had some injury problems since he left here (at Dundee and even now at Perth) so there is a cloud over his durablity as a player already.
Brillante for mine.

Agree about Taggart, wonderful talent but he appears to be made of glass.

Could Brillante, Ugga, and Brown all play together ? Because I wouldn't want to lose either of the existing pair for Brillante.
Holland is no better than what we already have and yet would probably command more coin. I'd take him if Brillante wasn't an option as long as we didn't lose Ugga or Brown.

[hawk]

none, they all went to play for bigger clubs and be world stars. We'll stick with the honest strugglers

[sammydog]

Where is Corbo now? He could solve any problem we have with the squad.

[halo se7en]

He'd solve the fact that our discipline so far has been exceptional.

Did Ugarkovic get a yellow for the challenge he made on Dimas (I think) in the second half? It's not recorded anywhere I saw but I thought he did.

If not, the only 2 cards we have received this season have been for back back chat (Hoole) and kicking the ball away (I think) for Nabbout

[Bon]

Eags... :wub:

[The Camel]

I think Brilliante alongside Uga in the middle of the park would be a great combo and with their ages you could build a long term partnership

That makes it even more impressive but equally frustrating - two stupid yellows but at least we've seemingly worked on eliminating the rash/stupid challenges that plagued most of our team last season.

There you have it lads.... put all your $ on Boogs getting a red this weekend coming.

I originally chose Brillante (refer pg 1) but wasn't entirely convinced to have him ahead of Taggart or Holland.
I thought Saturday's match pretty much confirmed my opinion....a definite YES! He worked tirelessly for the full 90 minutes, breaking down our attacks, dropping back deep to link their defence and midfield. On that display he would walk into this current squad, yes ahead of Ugar or Brown as a #6 or #8.

Brillante is a completely different type of player. I note you don't mention his ability as a playmaker / passer of the ball - or as a goal scorer - traits which the other two possess. He is though fast, energetic, and a wonderful defensive player - his pressing has always been first class - even when he was a Jet. The Jets really need someone with the skills of Brillante, Ugar, and Brown combined.

Then there is the question of money and Brillante would cost the Jets a hell of a lot more coin than they would be spending on Brown or Ugar.

[Tommyjet]

With our defensive stocks the way they are, north or durante would do nicely at present even though they are past their prime

I think you are getting a little sidetracked Dunster as the Thread is simply a hypothetical poll about "Who would you bring back to the Jets"?
We all know we do not have the coin for a Taggart, a Brillante or a Holland.
I chose Brillante and I answered your question about how could we fit all three....Brillante, Ugar and Brown together, Brillante would be the first one chosen whether ahead of Ugar at #6 or Brown at #8. His mobility and pressing is definitely what this team misses in the middle of the park.

Without getting to sidetracked.
We do have the coin for all 3 of those you mentioned, we just have an owner who hasn't seen enough yet to warrant spending the coin.
Weather you see his conservative approach as positive or negative is quite subjective.

Connor Chapman I'd love to have back. He was very impressive playing for the Youth team and has as much natural talent as I have seen for a long time.

Yes, he was a player who came here young with a lot of promise and I couldn't understand why we released him after only a couple of years or so to another A-League club. City are now starting to reap the benefits.
