Saw a rumour we might be signing Max Burgess from Sydney and Lachie Wales in this January window. No idea of the validity of these rumours, but have seen them floated around
When is the window?
I like Burgess but haven't seen all that much of him lately.
Wales is a hard no. Gypo scum.

Looks like we're signing Kota Mizunuma and based on what I can find and some video clips he's gonna be head and shoulders better then anything we have. Is 34 and still reliably on the bench for Yokohoma
Don't know if its been mentioned but apparently Susjnar is out for three months, which just about puts us at the end of the season by the time he becomes fully match fit again. Feel it could be worth finding an injury replacement who can add some experience to our backline over the rest of the season
In saying that JP, just noticed, in typical ALeagues style, Thursday is the 16th. So lets go with Thursday not Friday

Wales was in Perth last night so looks like he has gone there.
Dj Champness off to Iran.
Rumour this guy is considering coming to the Jets....

Not sure if we should be chasing players in their mid 30s. It goes against everything that the club have established under Rob Stanton. The next few matches are critical in the season, so any transfer business really needs to happy early in the window.
Big problem I see with older players is time. It may take any player weeks or months to adjust. By then season could be over and your left with a decision on whither you keep the player or not knowing next year's competition doesn't start until October. For an older player that can make a huge difference.
I would be looking at a player 26-30, looking at transfermarkt someone like Arturo Molina could be worth a look. Late 20's , Spanish and can play any attacking position behind the striker. Has good experience in the Spanish 2nd and 3rd divisions. Only recently became a free agent after not playing the last few games.
Brandon Barker, 28 is one I would also look at. English Free Agent who can play in a few attacking roles. Came through the Manchester City academy and was seen as the next big thing. Played for Rangers, Hibernian and Preston North End before finding his way to Cyprus playing against Manchester United in the Europa League a couple of years back. Had a poor year at Moorcambe in League 2 last year, but given his pedigree could be worth some investigation.
If you are looking at good NPL talent currently training Franco Maya at Marconi is an Uruguayan that can finish. Left footed who likes to cut in from the right and shoot. Plays RM as Marconi play 442, but could play in a few different positions.
As for the A League , Michael Ruhs at western united is struggling for game time. Can play anywhere across the front, extremely quick.
If your looking for something different, Harry Sawyer at Macarthur is a striker who posses different challenges for defenders. Around 1.95cm tall Sawyer could be useful especially when the Jets are chasing the game when you need a presence in the box. Former Newcastle Jet
Now you know that is not how we do business...anyone South American of any age is one of our niches. We think what they were is what we'll get.
If you ever get to see the video of the press conference, Remo's sheer pride in announcing the exploits of one Mario Jardel is hilarious in light of subsequent events!
Old Brazilian born Chinaman, should fit in
If the chinese got to rename him, I reserve the right to call him by his new aussie name "elko" or "ekky"...

Either of these would be a worthwhile replacement for Wellissol.
On top of the Kota news, have seen it floated on Twitter that we signed Christian formerly from Macarthur Bulls for a year and a half.
Im so happy for Archie Goodwin.
Yeah I wonder what changed?
At minimum if the new coach is any sort of serious we have seen the last of Bruno. Giving Goodwin that role is what he deserves as a minimum. Throwing him into the stupid Duke type role won't help and only dent his confidence.
One day we'll pick some decent midfielders who can bring the ball up field and help create chances for Goodwin. Until then let's just do big kicks and crosses and hope for the best.

Dunno about this one, will he be better than what we have, lets hope so. Can't say I remember him
If i try to put myself in the shoes of a NPL player, how many are going to leave their day to day jobs for a six month A-League contract? Very few.
I also question the signing but at least it is only 6 months
Comparing our transfer season to Perth, it’s a big disappointment. They’ve added a lot of depth to their starting XI across all areas, and while we’re yet to see how good those players are, it’s heartening for them I’d imagine to see such a bold attempt to still salvage this season.
On the other side, we could be Brisbane who have actually come out of this transfer window worse for wear at present.
On a seperate note, does anyone else find it odd that there’s no interest overseas for Taylor? A tonne of young aussies are getting signed up at the minute and id say Taylor is, at worst, equivalent quality to some of them.
Needs to back himself more and be scoring more goals, instead of offloading near the box, keep running and SHOOT. Or has he been told his job is to offload, who knows. The Scots want goalscorers like everybody else
Interesting we've signed a player that isn't on Footballhouseplus' books
Jack Duncan anyone, probably not. Just been dropped by Victory for no reason other than to bring in old favourite Langerak.
I'd be pissed as he has been outstanding last few weeks.
