Georgie is good but he will be 32 next year and already struggles to track back. Happy for Millar to take his spot

Life isn't the same without Con... but it can only improve without Tinks...
perhaps the hardest bit about losing George is that he isn't being poached by the new franchise, instead he's going to wankerers, that's a step down even from us...

Players Remaining off Contract for next season:
Nick Cowburn
Daniel Georgievski
Roy O'Donovan
Ronald Vargas
Jair Eduardo
Lewis Italiano
Kosta Petratos
Jake Adelson
Patrick Langlois
Kwabena Appiah-Kubi
At the moment I'm keeping Cowburn only. I'm on the fence with Roy because I don't know what we can get that's better - would like us to have a look in Asia. But where do you find a 1 in 2 striker?
One thing is for certain - we need some pace and guile out wide if we're going to keep playing the way we are. However, I get a sense we are moving to 3 at the back next year.

the biggest let down for me signing Boogaard (who ive heard is a fantastic bloke BTW) and letting George walk. Doesnt George want to be a CB anyway? why not have him and Topor back there and let Ivan, Johnny K, Jackson, Hoff etc play the role out wide?
We have Jackson who is good for CB. Oh and Roy is not a 1 in 2 anymore
Leads the league in "thumbs up for a through ball" though. Thats gotta count for something right?
Statistically he still is (goal every 1.88 games for us/ goal every 152 minutes), but I think that paints over what I perceive to be that he "doesn't pass the eye test" - i.e. looks good on paper but not so good in reality.
I'm also sick of hearing from Ernie how good this guy is in training. I don't care! I wan't him to deliver that on game day otherwise i'd be sitting on the hill at the uni watching him slot home zero pressure shots.

As far as I'm concerned we now have the worst defence in the league. George was the only one who could do anything useful anymore.
Topor and Boogs are getting schooled by everyone and are just getting in some lucky blocks. Jackson can't play or defend or pass well. Johnny K isn't a great defender. Great bloke, should move into CM and learn that position better. Hoffman is now a striker according to Ernie. Millar is a winger.
We are not doing shit next year with these guys in defence. We need put it out early that Topor and Boogs are moving on and spend all our money on 2 new CBs.
Ernie has done that for a few players this season. I'd be happy to never see Dimi get another free kick
Seriously who is Millar ? Not that bloke from the Mariners I hope ? FMD more proof the clubs broke.
How many "Evades" ?
He evaded the ball at least 2 or 3 times last weekend

Anyone noticed Jair trying to convince Dimi to let him have a go for a free kick just outside the box in the first half?
Np I didnt but Cowburn should take em when ever he plays
of the lot off contract i'd be okay with keeping Jair, Cowburn & Italiano but not overly concerned if we do or don't
I think it's a shame that we've resigned Boogard & Jackson, im okay with Topor staying but i would have liked to see us look for some new faces in that area
Wellington tend to play Krishna in a 4-4-2 and match him with Williams, if we signed him would people rather he play as a winger or striker?
NBN - is Ernie a doppelganger for Captain Obvious?

Not that I trust the 14 year olds that run the "Newcastle Jets Supporters" page to come up with actual news, but saw something on there this morning that Millar might be staying at the gypos due to some loophole?
Wouldn't surprise me, if any club could scam a system it would be them.
⬆️
prob cause he realised there are more gypos at the Jets than there are in Gosford these days.
