I like Kanta but he needs to leave Newcastle and get out of his comfort zone. Nothing challenges him here. All his friends and family are close, everything is familiar. Too easy, no struggle

if he's to be believed he got interest from other clubs and he honestly would've been better taking the risk with his career and giving one of them a go. considerin if he crashed and burned somehwere else we'd probably take him back in a heartbeat i see no reason for him not to give it a run and actually free us up the spot to sign someone a bit better
his biggest asset is versatility but cowburn offers the same thing, you could argue who's better or worse but if ya got one we don't need two
Cowburn is nowhere near the class of Kanta. Never will be. As for versatility it doesn't matter - Cowburn is simply not of the standard we require - at any position. I'm not saying he's not good or doesn't put in the effort - just that he's not proven himself yet and had plenty of time to do so. He'll make a great state league player in the near future. We can do much better - and Kanta with subsidies / concessions is a better choice.

That's not me arguing who's better out of Kanta or cowburn, it's more me saying that we already have Cowbie signed and he offers the versatility of Kanta, plus I wanna see Kanta move on for his own good as well to see if he can grow outside of this club who haven't done much for him the past bunch of years

Let's get speculation going so the herald has some material.
He will get paid though
His club are notorious for late payment
If they don't pay they will get relegated etc
So Kruse will get his cash just a little late
That being said he needs a new club
Now assuming we qualify for Russia he missed out last time through injury
Whereabouts he go will be dictated by where he can play and impress Ange
Being that Bert coached him before we are not as far out of the picture as one may think
A close sauce of I spotted James Holland at the Junction today

Alistair Quinn ? What happened to him ? Went to Holland played for a few years as a junior then in 2nd tier of senior football in Holland - then came back to Brisbane to play in the domestic league.
He's only 24 or so and can play as either a left or right back. Unless he's injured he'd be well worth a trial with the club.
What Plague? You think he is challenged here? Really?
I don't know, you're the one with the knowledge on all things Kanta apparently.
im just wondering how you know this. If hes a mate and has confided in you then great, or if you are in the profession of analysing people from afar on their mental state then thats also cool.
otherwise i think you're observations of him are biased and uninformed.
thats why i asked for clarity.
Who needs a challenge ? It's a job and the idea is to make as much as you need for the least possible effort. So I think Kanta is doing well enough.

We are definitely NOT good in the DM space. We have Ugar and a bunch of guys who are not A League standard. Look at every championship team in recent years and they have had absolute quality in the 2 DM roles. O'Neill and Brilliante (and Dimitrejevic), Milligan and Valeri are just 2 recent examples. It is the engine room of every top team
In saying that I don't think Wilkshire is the answer to that problem
