    I'd still prefer O'Caravan added to our squad - if Mateo gets citizenship we'll have one visa spot, and if Leilei goes back to China that would be two, but I'd expect Leilei's spot to be filled by another Chinese player (and possibly Mateo's vacancy as well, neither of which will be as good as Leilei, so as a minimum Martin needs to bring us first team u23 internationals), we could end up with no vacant visa spots if Martin insists on Chinese development players though...

    I think we actually need to be looking at two blokes who can get a start for rival teams rather than sit on the bench elsewhere

    Marinkovic is a liability in defence and BKF best days are behind him

    Sign blokes who would be wanted elsewhere.
    Not other HAL rejects

    I'd hardly call them rejects. I'd Kalfalah as better then Austin and Ingham but for some reason they are above him. Also marinkovic is a pretty good goal scoring mid which we do not have. You have to remember these squads are far and above ours. And until Lee shows otherwise I can hardly see us spending as much on our squad as they do

    Would have Dimitrijevic or Kalfalla. Pretty sure one more year and Dimitrijevic can apply for citizinship.

    Commentators on Fox just said Lee & Loz are off to Chile next week to visit Chilean club Audax Italiano about possible link, which may equal a Chilean player coming next season.

    Herald's story: http://www.theherald.com.au/story/45...nship/?cs=3398

    Sounds promising actually if we get some decent loan players (with the understanding we are only prepping them for the CSL)

    It wouldn't really be any different that what we currently do. Our squad turns over pretty much every 3 years and Visa players are lucky to see out a season.

    The average appearances a player makes for the club, assuming they make an appearance, is 28 matches.

    I've seen him plenty in off seasons past and he's been bigger.

    Must get on the Michelle Bridges program when it's time to suit up.
