Rumours the jets are signing another Beka
Beka Dartsmelia
If it's true he seems like a traditional 6, lots of ball winning in his highlights. Still Jets could do with that.

Watching that video, I think he offers a lot to this team. Considering our defensive issues and how few signings we've made to remedy them, a player who can stop the ball from getting to Elsey and Jurman as much as possible is a huge positive. Also seems to be more skillful and with some decent pace compared to your average number 6.
Will be interesting if we sign him what formation we'll be going for.
He's signed according to his partners socials
Brandon O'Neill, Gus, and now Beka will be plenty of competition for the holding midfield roles, which is good.
Surely Gus would be moving forward a bit in the absence of a playmaker.
Finally going to a proper 4-3-3 that can switch between two 6s and two 8s as necessary. Good news, just need a decent CB and I'll be pretty happy.

The Jets' lineup according to the A-leagues Instagram: kinda happy with that.
I'd personally swap Mikeltadze with Sotirio, kick Sotirio out and get a striker. But that's just me...
Oh and Weier for Duncan.
One positive about that list is that barring the release of one keeper and Sotirio/Buhagair, a majority of our truly useless players are out of contract at the end of this season. From here, it's up to management to make the right calls and actually get rid of them and not reward these poor performances.
If you release all these shit players though, you get the same issue that is constantly plaguing this team, which is a mass exodus at the end of each season, which comes down to our recruitment just not being consistently good enough.
Herald story on January window - does it include looking for potential injury replacements seeing as they've re-laid part of MJ stadium yet again, where the stage was for the Elton concert this time??

Newcastle Jets might be going window shopping in January after all

THE Newcastle Jets might be going window shopping in January after all.
Newcastle coach Arthur Papas has been asked several times recently whether he hoped to bolster his struggling squad during the FIFA transfer window, which opened on January 10 and closes February 8, but on each occasion he replied that would be unlikely. But Jets executive chairman Shane Mattiske told the Newcastle Herald on Wednesday that position might change if the right player became available at the right place.
"We're investigating whether there are any changes we can make to carry the squad forward over the second half of the competition," Mattiske said.
"We've got a competitive team but we're always looking at what's possible to improve it.
"That's probably all I can say at this point."
Given that Newcastle have scored only 10 goals in 12 games this season, a creative attacking player would appear likely to feature at the top of their wish list.
One incumbent who has shown an ability to find the net is winger Daniel Stynes, who scored a goal-of-the-season contender in last week's 1-all draw with Western United.
Stynes, 24, joined Newcastle from Perth on a one-season deal and Mattiske admitted his spectacular strike had done his retention prospects no harm.
"It's great to have players who are performing, and that goal certainly demonstrated his value to us," Mattiske said. "It probably improves his chances [of a new deal], but there's still a long way to go in this season and we're looking for good performances across the field from all our players."
The Jets are hopeful the likely return of co-captain Brandon O'Neill will provide some creativity in Sunday's clash with third-placed Western Sydney Wanderers at McDonald Jones Stadium.
O'Neill has missed the past two games with a knee injury.
