No problem with guys having a crack. I only dislike the mid season departure.
This off season should be good for us as we are an attractive option.

But who is available?Quote:

I'm waiting to see if that happens before I go along a similar line.Quote:

Lawrie came out the same day and said that Dimi won't be going anywhere, and there's no provision for release clause in his contract.
I'm assuming that means they learnt a lesson last time around.
Also, the "rumour" came out in the same article about Sydney FC resigning players, so I'll take that nonsense with a grain of salt.
We're talking July here, plus we will be in a better position to poach from other A-League clubs for once.Quote:

True.Quote:

We better hope Ronny and Pato get up to speed quickly if its the case.Quote:

Not sure how many times they were on the park together at AEK ( get to it Jeterpool , as if you don't have enough to do LOL ) but that experience should prove very fortuitous for us.Quote:

Also this seems to be a good list for off-contract a-league players

Look, I’m not trafficking in hope like some, but he made the Aussie squad by playing well for the Jets. I think it’s a massive risk to move out of that environment and risk being rendered invisible through lack of spotlight.
Now, that’s if the WC is his ultimate dream. If he’s just keen on getting ‘paid’ then by all means take that opportunity.
Also, I’ve read a bit on here about ‘disgruntled player’ not getting the option to leave.
In all honesty apart from “that dude that shares a last name with but is unrelated to Griff” have we ever as a club had that sort of standoff?
Cause fans very rarely side with players in these disputes so they better be in all on being dicks about it to secure their move.
Pretty sure Ryan Griffths if thats who you mean was kicked out of the club?Quote:

On the home front, he and his wife appear happy, settled and have just become parents plus he couldn't settle in his previous stint in Asia, what incentive is there for him to move at this point in time. He's only young, his chance will come, hopefully in Europe at a later date
