2016/17 Squad Thread

[Grimario]

I like your thinking..
However, with our coaches amazing scouting connections, we all know we are only going to get a choice of a few Adelaide youth or youth women players..

Nailed on to sign someone like Dylan Smith... meets all of Jones criteria. Former Adelaide Youth player, now plays in SA NPL with Adelaide City.

Look at these two cynical ****wits with the same opinion.

Are there players in the league we would look at to replace Hoole? If we are looking to replace certain attributes of his game, we need speed and the ability to play 90 minutes - he's the only Jets player to have started all games he has been available for selection and not be substituted.

What is Nathan Burns doing? Would Chris Harold be an option?

Would we move Brown back to the positon behind the striker, get a striker who works very hard and carry a luxury player like a Castro? What Brisbane Roar Youth player can we pinch?

Not 90 mins but Fahid Ben Kalfallah would be a great replacement/upgrade on Hoole

I'm not sure we'd get Fahid for the same coin Hoole would be on/offered - he would be expecting a lot more.

Personally, I think he's been worked out and past it. But he's an option.

It's a common problem, to be fair.

Bloody coasties.

[halo se7en]

You ****s will do anything to justify keeping these two at the club.

Let's just look at it straight up

Has Kantarovski done enough to warrant a new deal??
No

Then let him go


Has Bk done enough to warrant a new deal??
No
Then let him go

**** your sentiment right off
We been shit for the last 10 years

Why??
Because we keep giving contracts to those that don't ****ing perform

Yet you want Jones to stay.

[WolfMan]

Interesting question RE: Hoole's replacement.

One I don't have an answer for. I'd love to keep Hoole for the next 6 months, but it's his (and his agent's) decision to try their luck abroad.

[Guerny]

... using money outside the cap on the only players we have that are eligible for it and instead getting two equally shit players in and reducing the quality of the rest of the squad as a result.

So you've acknowledged that they are shit players but still want the club to waste two squad positions on them (and actually pay them)...
yep... you're logic is flawless... let's keep encouraging the mediocrity because we can save some funds in the cap.

As an alternative we could just, you know, recruit better players into those two squad spots.

Recruit better players how? By paying everyone $30k less than teams using the marquee and outside cap provisions? Bravo, MFKS v2.

Well done on following logic.

Are you the guy in this week's David Squires Cartoon?

I can sort of see both sides of the argument however many mentions regarding this spending is outside the cap however no one has mentioned that Mr Lee would most likely have an overall squad budget to work to as well..

[The Dunster]

People do realise it is Scott Miller's new club that Hoole is looking to sign with ?

Yeah, the argument I am making is very much around WHY other clubs have much better squads. Someone like Broxham has been at MV since he started, would almost definitely be getting paid out of the loyalty amount and then the rest of his wages that would be inside the cap for chumps like us, spent on improving the rest of the squad. Throw in two marquees and suddenly the gap grows. And if we aren't going to have a back up GK and versatile mid/def as PART of that outside the cap spend (because they are the only ones who qualify for it), then they aren't even worth discussing as options, IMO.
