Pretty sure Grim was referring to Adelaide. He looked good in that team. Maybe it was more to do with coaches and systems rather than the player being shit or not-shit.Originally Posted by borat

Well that was on of GVE's biggest flaws. Playing players out of position in a system they didn't suit. Made a few good players look bad.
Finally got Edson Montano's confirmed arrival!
It's football, not s***er!!
Where'd you hear that? When is he expected?
He flies in on Sunday morning. From a very reliable sauce.
It's football, not s***er!!
Thanks for the info. Bout bloody time. 2 months should be a good lead in. Better than 2 weeks anyway.
Yeah, I heard 6-8 weeks.....
Middleby Gone
Lawrie Out
That's got to be the first 6-8 weeks joke I've heard in about to 6-8 weeks.
Yep I just made a lame 6-8 weeks joke....I hate myself now!
WE DON'T DO WALKING AWAY !
that completes the picture. So now there's no stopping us. and heres a warm welcome for Edson Mo Montano
I knew exactly what Grim was referring, it was the part of Elrich's career in between the Jets and AUFC that is just as relevant. I think you have missed the point anyway, Elrich was a regular starter at the Jets and was never seen as a"shit" player. Just one that was paid a large portion of the salary cap which I doubt very much he is at AUFC.
Barresi gone, torn ACL.
Newcastle Jets @NewcastleJetsFC ยท 17m
As feared, the Jets can confirm @joshbarresi tore his right ACL in our match vs @juventusfcen and will require a knee reconstruction #NTUA
Poor kid, by the sounds of it he was impressing stubbins so far.
Will they now be able to sign someone in his place?
WE DON'T DO WALKING AWAY !
Yeah the poor bloke..
Sounds awful.. Everything had been looking very positive for him..
Good question about replacements..
Of Course they will under the injury replacement farce rule the HAL has.
Biggest issue will be salary cap amount we are currently on.
Obviously the kid wouldn't have been on a great deal of coin and unless we are sitting well under the salary cap cause someone in the club had done that on purpose to save Tinks a few bob and rip off the Newy fans we will be stuck signing a similar cheap signing and not be in the market for a Paartalu or other known player
Isn't there something in the injury replacement rule that means you have to sign a like for like player? So you can't replace your 18yo right back with an international marquee striker or something?
Not that rules mean anything in the HAL... I am sure clubs have gotten around it in the past.
Oh, like we did, signing Ward as IR for Neville.
What's the bet we sign Ward again..
Geez Louise, not according to some of the people on 'ere.
I wonder how many of our historically "shit" players have been good players just not suited to the shit system that GVE was trying to implement?
Elrich probably falls into that but more because the system GVE was trying to build was awful, not because Elrich was completely incapable of playing that general brand of football as shown last year.
This post makes far too much sense. Can you please delete it before the good Members head explodes.
Well said.
The only reason my head would explode is that Grimario is reiterating that GVE has NFI which the universe agrees on and hasn't brought up how ****ed it is we re employed him with the Emerging Jets to **** them up
