Just read the club is close to negotiating Coopers release.
Wonder if our budget of $240k will stretch to two decent players.

He can't defend.
But in saying that, IMO, Cowburn Hoff and Vujica do just fine for very little salary cap. $$$ are better off spent in the middle of the park or upfront.

Hearing he is free agent. Some would argue it is definitely a position we need strengthening
The player I would like to see us grab is Giannou from Guangzhou. Australian, not scoring a lot in China and might see his Socceroos chances improve to move away from China. Plus the Ledman link may help
Why would the Jets want a striker who is not scoring goals ? The there is the fact he gets paid 1.6 million a season. No thanks that's far too much money for not enough end product.
Adam Sarota is a free agent?
Nope is he better than ugar and brown?
That's like saying why would the Jets not want an EPL striker who isn't scoring goals. His goal rate in China is on par with Cahill last season and only 26.
I didn't say it will happen, but if he was willing to take a step down then great.
Strikers in China are paid big dollars to score regularly and when they don't they get discarded quickly. If you can name a better Australian Striker in a league that we could poach I am all ears
Can play out wide (looking at Hoole)
Some GPS stats and Mitch close to being released before transfer window:

Life isn't the same without Con... but it can only improve without Tinks...
Stats pfft, only one stat counts...if we had a striker who ran 100 metres a match, touched the ball twice but scored every game I would be satisfied.
Still the question of the 1.6 million a season. If he can be had for $300k a season then absolutely.
He's a very good footballer but just not $1.6m a season kind of good.

Totally agree
Nothing from tonight's NBN News report posted on their website, but apart from mention we are now in the hunt for two players during the window (with Bridge still be touted as a target and Jones not ruling him out despite a comment about needing a player with a good injury history - do weak ankles count??), there was a mention of Victory looking forward to doing us over the same way they dealt with the Gyppos, and considering our inability to deal with softer teams like Phoenix it's a bit of a worry we could be in for a hiding if we let the Tards score soft goals like we invited Wello to, it's not like we've been scoring six a game, we struggled to equalise and didn't look like going ahead when we finally did break even, unless it's 90 min of end to end I'm a bit concerned Victory will be a yardstick for us one way or the other, worried it will be the other...

No NBN so here's some Herald stuff instead:

After watching Victory play the other night we 'should' match up pretty well against them.
Victory we're very very direct and played hit and hope crosses all night.
If Jets can handle the press and play through they'll get lots and lots of open space to attack.
We cannot handle the press end of. Shitney kill us every time with the press.
Hello to multiple goalkeeper back passes and Long ball to wide receivers who'll whip in a cross if the forwards can be bothered to get there.
By the way, no one has mentioned it here. Commentators definitely mentioned last game that Ma Lei Lei might be leaving back to China in January. Im also 70% sure something was said about Kokko aswell.
