The only thing Mitchell has going for him is the blonde sitting next to him last night. If Taylor can hook up with her and maintain a starting spot as he should then he is well and truly a newy hero and no need for Mitchell to even be present at the stadium.

Arguably (depending upon which player you're a fan boy of) one of the most consistent last year. Still one of the best defending options we have with Chapman who is showing a lot of promise.

Probably played one of his last games for us. (is he signed for another season?)

If GVE was looking for an excuse to bring Neville or Mitchell back into the mix and shaft Regan ala first half of the season, he's just got a big red excuse.

Poor bloke has had a shocker in the last 2 games. Still rate him as one of our better defenders though.

militiamon
03-03-2013, 07:27 PM
I was surprised that he didn't replace him with Chapman after the Wellington game.

Mitchell will only be back if Ritter is kicked out as well. GVE was clear about wanting to have a right-footed CB and a left-footed CB, so it's between Chapman and Regan for the right-footed position and Ritter and Mitchell for the left-footed position. Pretty retarded selection policy but it is what it is.

Our best defensive performances have come when Regan and Chapman partnered each other in defence. Seems like a simple decision to me...

i still think regan besides the last 100 minutes of game time, is a must in the centre of defence. ritter, chapman and to a minor extent mitchell are all ball playing centre backs, none of them have that scrappy do all you can to get the ball attitude, (no nonsense local lad to quote baz). I also think regan is one of the biggest communicators in the team from watching pre season games with no noise and thats vital.

think of roar they have matt smith who is the no nonsense bloke and the captain and than they have either a jurman, donachie, etc who is the ball playing centre half. since smith has been out injured there defence has turned to shit. look when we have had regan compared to when we haven't had him. i think the gypos game at home and last weekend are the first games regan has played in that we have lost.

will be very interesting to see how chapman and ritter go this week against smeltz.

Geez, lots of blokes having a go but what about Brilliante's through ball to ADP. Left Reegz one on one vs a player running at full tilt. Nowt much he can do there. I'd say not many defenders in the league are making a clean tackle there.

Grimario
24-02-2014, 03:02 PM
Why make the tackle at all then? Just keep your feet, stay between him and goal. Make him beat you. As soon as you stick a leg out and miss the ball, every player is going to trip over it.

Sack the lot of them, basically.

Geez, if he did that blokes would be all over him for not having a go. Part of the beauty of a good striker is showing enough of the ball to make the defenders have a nibble. Reegz made the same mistake countless others have made against people of ADP's quality since the beginning of football (which is 1991 according to United fans).
ADP was too good in a situation heavily stacked in favour of the striker.
Other than that I didn't see much nonsense at all from him.

We won't mention all those other times he has actually put in some crucial tackles hey. And as Mr Fish said, at least he looked annoyed with himself and knew he'd ****ed up for his team and his town. Was 1 of only 2 players to actually acknowledge bay 60 in the end as well.

Then all of a sudden the rug gets pulled out.

My ohh My this is about to Kick Off

Also mentioned that Virgili for the last 3 months had tried to discuss his future with Stubbins to no avail, only to be dumped today.

I bet a few of these guys who were dumped today are now wishing they had held firm and supported Griff, Kew and co. back in January.

Like the old Union saying goes.....United we stand, Divided we fall.

You got to play dirty with ****s like Tinkler and Stubbins, they will use you and tell you the things you want to here until they have no use for you and they will just spit you out!

In a morbid way a part of me has the same feeling. It's probably the same as when a lot of people didn't want to see Abbott voted out by his own party recently, many want to see him really get shot down in flames at the next election.
The same here I suppose, Stubbins has lied and whined and bitched and moaned all along that it wasn't his team and therefore not his fault.
Next year there will be 100% no doubt and if the wins aren't forthcoming, it will be good to be there when he is shown up for the fraud he is.

But the fact is this, you look at every club, from the bottom to the top of the a-league and there are squad players. Guys who aren't the upper tier, we're still only the a-league and the fact is you can't be getting all these great players on a few hundred thousand all through the team.

For me, you sign a high quality starting 11, who are you're go to and who can get the job done, from there you still sign some obvious quality, but that's pretty much one good name to fill most positions. From there, you're gonna have spots left and not a lot of coin, Regan will be a cheaper player, wants to play and when called upon can definitely get the job done.

Obviously, if signing Taylor is the difference between getting the guy who will push us over the edge and make us great then of course you tell him to move on, but if all bases are covered I'd love him back

You don't sign players to be squad players. You sign players to be first team players. Once you have 16-17 of them you fill your squad with young players who may make it one day and give them an opportunity.

You don't keep giving opportunities to blokes who have been in the squad for 5-6 years and haven't nailed down a starting role.

The opportunity for local talent to make it should be passed on to Cowburn Reece Pappas Michael Kanta.They may or may not make it but it is their turn.

So you want 9 squaddies/younguns taking up at least $450,000 (league min wage).
that leaves 17 players at an average of $123k for your "must be first teamers" portion.
even taking out 3 players (marquee/aus/youngun) leaves you an average of $150k per for a team of first teamers.

i dont have a problem with this theory at all.
my problem is fitting the other 15-17 players into the salary cap and all of them being 'better' than squaddie/Regan level.
once again im not hating on the theory of it, but can you really find 17 players good enough to match it with the best for $150k each?

i think everyone on here would rather have a squad full of awesome players earning bugger all. but the world dont work like that.

I'm with mkfs... Regan is a good bloke, and can do a competent job, but he has also had a few years to break out... I've seen this forum go on about the kales of the youth scene who've missed their chance, and honestly it's because we persist with guys who aren't quite there yet, hoping something will happen.

Your Regan's and Abbas's are cheap, reliable players, but they aren't the ones who are going to take a team to the next level... They also aren't the players any other team are scrambling to sign when they're off contract. Why waste the money and potential playing time on them when there is a bunch of untapped younger guys not getting a go.

Unfortunately the jets board and a large portion of fans don't look at this bigger picture, but instead persist with these guys because "they're newy through and through" and "one of our own"... While it's an admirable quality, there will be more of these guys in the future, there always is, but if they don't get a chance here, they'll be snapped up or ship off elsewhere for it, and we'll continue with an average team that embodies "newybrah" as one jets fan affectionately used to refer to it, but doesn't provide results.

No results for a few more years, and what youth with any potential in Newcastle is going to want to play for the team or the town?

ok not sure if your post was aimed at me but these quotes are the exact reason why you need the likes of regans in your squad.

we cant fill it with 23 top line players.
we wont survive with 23 untested kids.

we need good kids, we need top players, but with the salary cap the way it is we need cheap reliable players who can do a job.
you said it yourself.

now if theres someone better out there we are signing for the same price or cheaper then great. but i dont think theres anyone on here who thinks we are unearthing an ansel, jeggo or georgeski.

another thing is to consider how well these ex players of ours have gone on to other clubs to become good cheap reliable players who can do a job.

maybe coaching has more to do with it?


as i said, if we replace him with someone better on the same coin to fit in the squad then great, i wont be unhappy.
i dont have much faith in it happening though.

We can't discard half our squad everytime we finish last, that's how we become perennial wooden spooners. You need to be able to coach some of them to become better players, you can't just buy a first 11 of HAL level players who could win you the league and stay under cap.

If you were a new coach coming in to this club would you rather have a 20 year old with no HAL experience, a clean slate and try to teach him your tactics or would you rather a 25 yr old with a few years HAL experience, a losing mentality and try to mold what he already knows to fit into your tactics? This depends on what the new coach wants to work with.

That's easy take the 20 year olds and change your culture.

You can make as much of a statement that Reegz Chilli etc have been hampered by sub standard coaching and I will agree with that. Problem is that is the cards they have been dealt with their opportunity at the big time.

Not necessarily fair but that is life.

You may say we get some decent coaches in place and you might turn them around. What happens in 3 years time if you haven't?? You have neglected your yoof shot your EJ's program in the foot and you still have to get rid of a 28 year old who hasn't made it.

As for this bit about being unable to sign 16-17 blokes to be HAL starters not being possible. Complete bullshit. Every other club manages to do that except for us.

We are already carrying blokes like Pepper and BK who despite their time at the club have not cemented themselves despite umpteen chances and we are obliged to continue carrying them as they are contracted.

Chilli and Reegz ain't contracted and we need to let them go and move on

This depends on what the new coach wants to work with.

Also if you have two players of similar ability, one is a local product and one is from outside the region, you should try to always keep the local product.
Take these players that Stubbins and Pascoe were bringing in towards the end of the year mainly from Sydney to trial....obviously they were not good enough to get a gig at SFC and WSW so that is why they were here. Are they any better than what we have locally?
Another case in point was when Max Burgess (a centre mid) came into the squad and was placed above Lundy (winger) and Michael Kanta (centre mid) in the pecking order. In the games he played he showed nothing to indicate that he was superioir in ability to our two local lads.

Same goes for Reegz, fair enough if we were able to sign a better player from outside on similar money I'm all for it but can't see any benefit whatsoever in bringing in someone new who is not going to offer any superior qualities than what we have with Reegz.

I said a few months back that I think we need to release either Pepper or Kanta because they are too similar, maybe not in style but in terms of ability they are players who have been around (especially Kanta) for a while but yet to fully cement a spot in the first XI. Both are players who in my book are still decent squad players who can do a good job when called upon to come into the team but really we need a centre mid who is going to have a presence and control the game.....think back when Stu Musialik was at his peak for us or Kasey Wehrman. I would prefer to have Caravella back who offers different qualities, release either Pepper or Kanta and go for someone who is a real leader in the centre of the park.

In regards to this, i was meaning that it takes more than 1 year to build a squad. We can't just go out and buy 10 starters whilst staying under the salary cap. We might find 3-4 a year who are starting at another club and be willing to join us. We will struggle to attract 10 HAL level starters from other clubs and we will have to settle in some respects and build our way back up.

Would agree there WLG.I severely doubt any of these so called squaddies are on the minimum wage or even close to it

I agree with this point also.
That's why I always said if we sign him back cheap he'll be worth it.

There may be some truth to that but I diss everyone and it is not even close to being entirely true Plague.


As a noted Birraz Fanboi there was no way I have dissed him:rof:

Blokes you haven't put shit on:
1. Griff.
2. Biraz
3. Alex Wilkinson.

That's it.

Everyone else has copped a spray and you've been right about 95% of them.

The 5% being Tarek Elrich.
Suck eggs pal.

Thinking about it some more, how long have BK, Regan and Pepper been at the club? BK 6 years, Regan 5, Pepper 4? Or something like that? Sure, they more than likely were on minimum wage to begin with. But when you see the likes of Jesic, etc being put on 130k by Branko, and take into account inflation, and take into account length of service, bump-ups for captaincy and milestone appearances, contract-renewal bonuses, and think about the fact that potentially some years the lower-end players' contracts were bumped up so we met a certain minimum-cap-usage or something like that. If the likes of BK, Regan & Pepper aren't all on at least 80k by now (what, 25k above minimum for a senior?) I'll be extremely surprised. Hell, if they're each on less than 100k I'll be surprised tbh.

And that's nothing agaisnt those three personally - that's just the nature of the workforce, in my attempted-sensical-thinking.

I will always enjoy the fact that of all the things that you were wrong about, this will be the topic that you were the wrongerest.

By the way if I remember correctly he is the bloke that we first argued over all those years ago.

Told you back then I'm always right, and gladly nothing's changed.

From what I've heard, Regan was on well and truly more than 100k...

ok not sure if your post was aimed at me but these quotes are the exact reason why you need the likes of regans in your squad.

we cant fill it with 23 top line players.
we wont survive with 23 untested kids.

we need good kids, we need top players, but with the salary cap the way it is we need cheap reliable players who can do a job.
you said it yourself.

now if theres someone better out there we are signing for the same price or cheaper then great. but i dont think theres anyone on here who thinks we are unearthing an ansel, jeggo or georgeski.

another thing is to consider how well these ex players of ours have gone on to other clubs to become good cheap reliable players who can do a job.

maybe coaching has more to do with it.

Wasn't a shot at you mate, just a general response. I've had this same convo with several jets fans.

This is nothing against reegs, its just the way the cards landed with contracts. While I agree we need some of these players, we are already stuck with several to tide us over.

From the squad list thread (apologies if out of date)

1. Mark Birighitti - 15/16 - wasted squad spot really
2. Scott Neville - 15/16 - young squaddie who has done alright
5. Ben Kantarovski - 15/16 - another squaddie, not great but is contracted... Would prefer reegz, but again, cards fell that way
15. Josh Baressi - 15/16 - young, contracted, will need time to develop but can probably slot in as a squaddie
16. Jacob Pepper - 15/16 - definite squaddie and contracted
19. Mitch Cooper - 16/17 - has potential to be good with coaching, and also, contracted
20. Ben Kennedy - 16/17- epitome of squaddie, not going anywhere, appeases the newy thru and thru crowd
23. David Carney - 15/16 - contracted, hoping a long benching has sparked some fire as I felt he was lazy and lacking.

Based on this we already have 5-7 squad players who are good enough or have shown some potential (kanta maybe being a slight exception as he has had a shit ton of chances). I think with a clean slate we should be able to get at least 6-8 players who are first team and have some quality as well as the 4 or so not mentioned already signed. That puts us at about 18, add a marquee and that leaves about 4 spots to bring in a few other cheaper squaddies who have sparked as well as promote some talented youth based on their youth season performance.

Signing reegz or virgilli is just making our squad top heavy on average for another season.

Let them go, if we end the season and they've shown promise and are up for grabs, scoop them back up and turf the guys who are contracted this year and don't fire.

The only thing that comforts me by getting rid of Regan is if they intend on using Kanta as a back up centre back and bring someone new into his midfield role.
If that's the plan then there isn't any room to Regan.

But most on here have been saying that for years and the coaches have given it nowt thought.

Honestly, if this happens I'm fine with Regan being gone and would even be asking for Pepper to leave at that point.

Kanta's the most versatile, has the most potential and right now is also the better player when he's switched on. Midfield is an area we sorely lacked in the most in comparison to the other teams. Kanta as back-up defensive and centre mid, as well as being able to slot in potentially at right back and centre back if need be makes him the right call at that point

Yeah pretty well agree with you but going against Kanta is that he looks to be another Wheelhouse in that he is prone to injury. When did he last complete a season without missing games due to injury? Your value as a player gradually drops (as it did with Jobe) when it becomes expected that you are always going to have niggles and off-season operations etc.

So serious question

How does he get a 1 game ban for his effort on Friday night with Mauk

Yet Roy is sitting out 10 games ??


Bit inconsistent that

Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t he get a yellow for the incident meaning the buck stops there. He got the red for a second yellow.

Not justifying it as it deserves more then a week on the sidelines but that’s the rules?
