    Jeeeez Stanny, you are a hard man to please..
    Lets face it, he's not coming out here. Its the Jets. But I'm a big enough masochist to hope..

    Yes, he's made from balsa wood.. But as if he wouldn't absolutely walk it through this league..
    You get the sort of abysmal refs (I'm looking at you Kurt Ams) that we have already, protecting blokes like Castro, Ninko, etc, then I don't see why it would be such a bad idea..

    I was reading how he almost gave up football recently, he's talked about how much abuse his family have copped for his injuries ("Jack Wheelchair" I believe kids were taunting his son)..
    A nice little beach-change and a confidence booster playing in this league could be the best thing for him..

    His body wont cope with our hard pitches and the way Papas wants to play, plus no way he settles for aleague wages and we aint gonna offer marquee ones. Im hard to please because we constantly promise better times but offer up dross. Papas had been spot on with his recruitment so far IMO, No need for Wilshire

    Couldn't agree more, Blokes with his class with there instinct and vision see the game seconds quicker than your average player which helps them avoid the hackers in the A League. Playing in this league and staying sound and a great lifestyle for his family and he could do much worse than come here. I read in a article he was not motivated by the coin for his next journey just the opportunity to play football and re-establish himself and enjoy the game again.

    Everything he needs on and off the park could be had here if money is not his primary motivator.

    Firstly, it's not going to happen.

    Jack didn't have any injuries last season, he just didn't play every week because Bournemouth had 7 CMs. The drop off in pace between here and England would give him another few years of playing, we'd just need to convince him to come out here for the lifestyle. His passing and dribbling would be something this league has never seen.

    But, again, it's not gonna happen.

    Perth, Brisbane, Adelaide and Wello in hubs. Sorted. NSW won't lock down again once they hit the vaccination targets. I don't think Vic will either. No need to travel into the states more likely to go back into lockdown.

    Random thoughts off the top of the head:
    Wello in the gong
    Reds in maybe Albury
    Perth in Canbera (but I'd prefer Adelaide personally)
    Brisbane in Ballarat

    You might lose crowds if restrictions come back, but you could still run the comp.

    Erik Paartalu has just parted ways with his club, I know the dudes probably too old for this team but still reckon he'd be a good pickup

    Apparently not signing Jack Wilshire. Assume we are still in the market for Jack Wilshere though.

    Nah just the club. At least a few months ago. I remember seeing something on Twitter. Don't know what he's been doing since then
