Leo's Instagram suggests he's gone "beautiful time in Australia Newcastle goodbyes"
O'Caravan is wasted talent at the gyppos (actually knows where the goal is, runs into good positions, has mongrel in him etc - in all fairness the headbutt was on Manny Muscat, who didn't laugh at the irony of it ;) ), but unfortunately on a two year deal with the scum (even if you hate him you'd have to feel sorry for him stuck in that shite team for two years, no hope of parole, expect more headbutts next season to avoid the embarrassment of wearing palm trees on his chest for another goddamn year...)
Did anyone else see this in the herald....?
"Football Federation Australia are close to finalising the sale of the club to Chinese lighting magnate Martin Lee. The Herald understands that former Mariners coach Lawrie McKinna has been earmarked for a senior administration position in the new set-up. An American consortium headed by Jeff Von Schmauder also remain interested. FFA briefed Jets coaching and office staff last Thursday."
let the rebuild begin
1. Mark Birighitti - would love to keep but will go (maybe just sign him so we can sell him...)
3. Jason Hoffman - can go, started the season off okay but turns the ball over way too much
5. Ben Kantarovski - keep
6. Cameron Watson - no comment required
7. Enver Alivodic - thanks but no thanks
10. Leonardo - we saw what he can do but wont do it consistently
18. Josh Baressi - don't call us we'll call you
25. Brandon Lundy - don't call us we'll call you
28. Ryan Kitto - keep
2. Daniel Mullen - keep
8. Mateo Poljak - keep
11. Labinot Halti - hopefully recovers okay
12. Andy Brennan - don't call us we'll call you
14. Mitch Cooper - undecided
15. Themba Marlow - don't call us we'll call you
17. Radan Pavicevic - don't call us we'll call you
20. Ben Kennedy - depends who you get to replace birra
22. Lachlan Jackson - keep
4. Nigel Boogaard - how much we paying him?
24. Nick Cowburn - keep
ugar and nobby - KEEP!!
subsidise both BK's salary, use that to splash some extra cash at Birraz
Keep Hoff if he's not on too much coin, he's been good this season and shows some passion for the team
I was thinking it was Mullen who needed to go early, but as the seasons progressed it's clear Boogs needs to be culled, he's not worth being our captain, gets red carded every 3rd game and in general hasn't been playing as well as Mullen. Plus it's fair to believe he's probably on too much coin
we have some rubbish youth on our team which is a low point for us which I think has been rectified by Miller somewhat, signing Jackson, Cowburn, Uga and Kitto who have been our best youth players, and I'd say I'd only keep the ones he's signed as well as Coops
Crowley has left the Jets

I'm not surprised given he hasn't featured in the first team calculations for some weeks. Brennan has moved ahead of him. That said, I thought he had more about him than Pavicevic.
From what I had heard he hadnt been even training with the first team in 3 months.
Rather bizarre if the kid gets a run as often as he did this season to not even be training to develop him up to standard.
Anyway no great loss
Kale was a far superior player and never got a look in
Blake Tuxford has left the Jets for Northcote in Victoria too. That's the same team Crowley has joined.
Never played a game for the club in the league (he was on the bench for the week Birraz was injured) but certainly leaves our goal keeping stocks a little thin if the above expected departure occur.

I wouldn't worry too much about it.
We can sign any kid to do same job
Anyway the young kid playing first grade in the NPL is only 16-17
I rate him very much.
I think some of our off-contract players the Jets want to extend should think carefully about the fact under Martin we would become a very secure and potentially one of the wealthiest clubs in the A League before they go jumping ship... ;)
Dont we still have that young bloke Bon Scott??
