Geelong looks a decent venue.
Thread made sticky
Compare http://www.smh.com.au/sport/soccer/w...02-12h2bu.html with Carney's denial of returning abuse at Bodi.
bodi didnt jump the fence, big mistake. Carney is still out there trying though.
And the WSW players were acknowledging their supporters, the very reason Bodi questioned Carney Two very different circumstances.
Matt Thompson has signed for Maitland City apparently
1 more game then Aleague beer break

Transfers have started
Roar have signed Jerome Polenz
Smurfs have signed some Senagelese midfielder.
Phil Stubbins is apparently happy with his squad that is why we have still signed no one :whistling:
Cockeril banging on about a mass clean out at the Wanderers after tonight's game v Victory
Thought he said Mullen to the Jets was a done deal.
Until the international Clearance comes through for the bloke and the bloke has done his 3 months in the injury rehab squad at jets training and the bloke has played for us on at least 1 occasion the word done deal means **** all to me.
There are many things that could scupper this done deal
That rehab would have to be from a knee injury right ?.
Is Mullen any good? I don't think I've seen much of him...
Can't get a game at the last placed team. Defo starter here.
He started out as a right back and has played there for the wankerers but I think he is more suited to centre back.
You could put him in anywhere in the backline and he'd be a thousand times better than Gallaway/Gallagher/Welsh.
Mullen I thought had a terrific few runs in the ACL for WSW, but in the league I've found him quite underwhelming.
I'd still much rather have him as a RB, CB or even LB option than Gallaway, and if it is true as reported that a swap deal looks likely for the two, I say we're the winners out of the deal.
If we sign Mullen, I could see Neville become CB (I've liked what I've seen of him in the 3 man backline, and as CB when we've gone from 3 to 4 backs).
Yep so a bloke not wanted by Adelaide Victree and Melburn is now suddenly gonna be great acquisition for us??
I need a bit of convincing that he is gonna improve our side rather than just be another bloke achieving the same results as the rest of them
We have tried plenty of combinations of our current roster and can't find any sort of balance or backbone, maybe just changing for similar ilk players, especially AFC CL winners, is all we can hope for at the moment. We have no money to spend and no quality players will want to come until Tinks is gone. We will just have to find good fringe players and hope that they can offer something.
FFA to send hirachy to newy monday
http://m.smh.com.au/sport/soccer/nat...08-12khqw.html
It would just send a signal that they are taking their governance of the league seriously - making a single purpose trip to meet people face to face and eyeball them. When half their attention is focussed on networking in an Asian Cup corporate box, the gesture doesn't quite have the same gravitas. I think it would be better that they continued the line that they are heavily and constantly monitoring the Jets by remote than pretend the trip on Monday is anything other than a pitstop on a junket. They will be too focussed on the Asian Cup to put anyone at the Jets through the wringer.
how stoked would they be that the jets HQ is now at the stadium.
they will pop in at 4.55, say hello and be straight in the corporate box for 5pm.
good planning imo
Still think the timing of this has Tinkler behind it. He is forcing the FFA's hand, fully knowing that they probably felt they could just leave the Jets situation alone till the Asian Cup was over.
The guys coming up are probably in Melbourne as we speak.
The bloke is as cunning as a shit house rat with a gold tooth.
The looks of this is that there is some type of power play on for Tinks trying to force the FFA to take over as the buyers ain't available he might ideally want. The bloke has kept his end of the bargain that they can not take the licence off him and is just pulling the rug out everywhere else to make us a basketcase so they have to act
Can you explain why would Tinks want to give away to the FFA for free one of the few assets he can actually sell?
Because it will end up costing him too much money, eventually if there is no buyer he will be better to cut his losses and run.
So according to stubbins, unlikely there will be any player arrivals thus month
Sounds about right. Well in Stubbs
