We are free to sign any off contract players, I would use it to sign the best from the NYL or younger players from other clubs who aren't getting a look in. We won't attract established players from other clubs.
Or if we can offload Steele as well then combine there wages to sign a quality midfielder from OS. Someone on a 2 year deal that we can build a team around. But I doubt this will happen until the sale of the club is resolved.
This season is over as far as I am concerned and the rest of the season should be about planning for the next 2-3 years.
problem is....we get promising youth who fk up for 3 yrs and when they become aleague quality they walk.
no future there
Or do what MV and Perth just did. Buy the better players in the comp.
Perth have salary cap issues so Jamie mclaren
Apparently they were 500k over in preseason until they moved Thwaite and Marinkovic to marquees.
Anyway Mcclaren in under contract for another year after this one and Perth don't have any salary cap issues so its not going to happen. But McClaren is the type of footballer we should be trying to sign if he was off contract. I wouldn't mind trying to pick up Harold again
How higly rated is Kale by the people he has played with and against ? As an observer I think he knows how to score a goal, is reasonably agile, and has good technical skills. The downsides are lack of strength, reluctance to jump for a ball, and he can go missing mentally if things aren't going his way.
Given the dire position the club are currently in I'd be happy to see Kale get a chance. Because not giving him a go just makes playing for the youth league a complete joke.
I have done well training you lot.
The bloke left the club 8 months ago and you blokes are talking about him now like he is the answer.:rof:
Kaz Patafta
you just watch
Jessie Pinto - is the answer
Jobe.
who cares
So has carney left the country yet?
I'm really surprised he hasn't fit in really well at our shambles of a club. Aren't Carney folk made for the circus?
After the last 4-5 years I think we have progressed beyond a circus.
Fabio ferriera anyone?
@JamesGardiner42: @NewcastleJetsFC have finalised situation with Jonny Steele. Announcement expected today. Don't expect him back.
About time
I know it's the coaching staffs responsibility, but surely someone like kew would have quite a few contacts from his time in Europe to help scout potential visa players or even players he has played with.
Also, after stubbins most recent comments, it seems we are looking at bringing both a defender and someone in the attacking third in. You would have to think they have already spoken to taggart about a loan spell. If not him I reckon a winger should be priority over another striker as to provide some bloody service for the strikers we already have.
They were saying yesterday that Biraz is off to trial with Venezia (Italian Serie C)
birra and gallaway gone yet? if not, why not (more gallaway than birra)?
More mentions of Mullen to Jets on the coverage last night. No mention of the World Game's story which also mentions Appiah Kubi as one expected to sign for us.
The space we have, by my recollection, are two squad spots and those who can be covered by injury spots (Baressi and Celeski)
I had a bit of a look and I can't find anything that says that ZC is an injury replacement. Read a few reports on Caravella's re-signing and it doesn't mention him as a replacement. Didn't someone contact RM directly and ask that question?
I think we had a spare spot and we signed him for a year following the injury.
I can't find it either.
Although I did find this

Meanwhile, Stubbins confirmed the Jets are close to signing former Adelaide United youth team captain Allan Welsh as an injury replacement for Josh Barresi.
that was a master stroke that move.
A promising attacking midfielder out for the season... replaced by a guy who has defended worse than a few witches hats. What a bargain.
But I thought injury replacements were numbered outside the 23
Stubbled across this bloke, searched the name here found no results

Seems like some Mexican GK we've signed for NPL over from some USA College. Hes strangely only 5ft 9'
Pretty sure he's the drinks dude, nothing more.
