    But then who would provide the assists for BK's penalty failures?

    Who would provide the team lulz?

    It's a brilliant idea but would take away much of the gameday experience.

    This is the Jets we are talking about. Either someone within the squad will step and deliver.

    Either that or we will recruit in to fill the void


    Dont fear mediocrity is a mastered art form with us

    For those who are losing track with where we are at with meeting our minimum requirements, this is taken straight from the A-League website


    How many Players does a Club have on their Hyundai A-League Player Roster?

    At all times during the Season, a Club’s Hyundai A-League Player Roster must have:
    • a minimum of 20 Players; a maximum of 23 Players;
    • a minimum of 2 Goalkeepers;
    • a minimum of 3 Australian Players aged 20 or under;
    • and a maximum of 5 Foreign Players.

    Guest Players and Mature Age Rookie Players sit outside the Club’s Hyundai A-League Player Roster. Players on a Club’s Foxtel National Youth League (NYL) Player Roster, including Contracted NYL Players, are also eligible to participate in the Hyundai A-League.

    What is the minimum salary for a Hyundai A-League Player?


    The minimum salary for Players in the Hyundai A-League in the 2015/16 Season is:
    • Under 20 - $41,000 (excluding superannuation);
    • and 20 and over - $55,000 (excluding superannuation) -



    See more at: http://www.a-league.com.au/about/sal....NIuiV0Pq.dpuf
    Read more at http://www.a-league.com.au/about/sal...OAO4HmfRmOh.99

    Having a further read of it, Mitch Cooper falls under the criteria for a "Loyalty Player" of which $200,000 can sit outside the cap. BK and Kanta are the only other 2.

    Did Pav come through our Youth system? Cowburn (if he's still under 23) and Pav could also fulfill the criteria to have up to $150,000 sit outside the cap.

    Cowburn is u 23 that for certain

    As for Pavicevic he is a Sydney based junior who was dragged up here 4 or so years ago and put into the NYL and EJ NPL sides.
    So depending on how FFA view where junior starts as being NYL/NPL arrival or they go back further.

    Because if they go back further then Hoole Kantarovski are not Jets juniors due to playing for Magic as kids

    Likely teams at this stage:

    JETS



    Pretty solid, need a marquee striker though imo.

    ADELAIDE



    Solid, but lacking firepower imo.

    ROAR



    Balanced squad imo

    GYPOS



    Plenty of pace on the counter. Plenty of shit****s in the squad too.

    CITEH



    A lot of quality. But weak at LB and need a better CB pairing imo.

    VICTORY



    Aging with Valeri, Berisha and Kalfallah to be very important. Lacking a bit of creativity in the final 3rd without Finkler and Barbarous. Think they'll have to recruit unless they plan on just hitting on the counter.

    GLORY



    Quality.

    FC



    Lacking firepower. No geniune striker. Blackwood is too raw and Simon is shit. Holosko is a winger.

    PHOENIX



    Great front and middle thirds, but woefully thin at the back.

    WSW



    Need strikers more than we do ffs.

    Good try but your line ups are well wide of the mark, starting with the Jets. You are missing plenty of regular starters for all teams

    The things I would do for that CB pairing..

    I politely yet forcefully disagree with you yet again.

    3-5-2 all the way ......Have a go Millertime

    Duncan
    Mullen - Kanta - Boogs
    Hoole - Ugar - Brown - Poljak - Haliti
    Nordstrand - New striker
    Dare to Zlatan

    Like the formation but players don't fit. Need supremely fit players in those wide positions to convert to 5 at the back in defence. Hoole possibly. Haliti no chance

    Also need speed at the back playing a 3 man defence

    Boogz Kanta and Mullen get most of their yellows for being slow

    Then add in they all like to go to ground needlessly


    Wouldn't have been a bad formation back in the day we had Zads and Goodwin

    Missing

    Adelaide - Maronne has Achilles injury so will be Kitto/Marino to start. Plus 3 Visa spots to fill (rumoured to be a marquee striker)

    Gypos - Ferriera to replace Appiah, Poscoliero and Faty with be CB pairing, Rose replaces McGing

    Victory - Signed Baro, to replace Delpierre, and would expect to partner Ansell not Donachie. Muscat all but confirmed Holman yesterday who would play 10, Bozanic back to 6 and Mahazi to the bench. Doubt Austin will start with 2 more Visa signings to come

    Melbourne City - Signing a marque #10 Fernando Brandan (waiting for Cahill I believe) and a Visa CB to partner Chapman. Fitzgerald/Kmau/Caceras fighting for 1 place.

    Perth - Lowry and Grant CBs, Willaims and Herd at DM. Mills is the english LB they signed from Oldham Athletic. Taggart and Marinkovic competing for 1 spot

    SFC - 4231 - Ryall for Grant, Ninkovic at #10, Ibini and Holosko either side and a marquee striker upfront that Arnold/Pignata has been talking about. Blackwood & Carney to the bench

    Nix - Barbarouses and Krishna swap places. Lia won't play CB, they are rumoured to be signing Hamill from WSW

    WSW - Cornthwaite to partner TPS at CB, Cole won't start and will be Sotirio or the Japanese player they just signed.

    And the Jets - well we are getting a striker that we know for sure. Nordstrand will play in his preferred position of 9 or 10 so swap with Brown. My thoughts are well known that Cowburn will start LB. What will be interesting is if Nabbout can force his way into the starting side. Possibly for Poljak with Brown shifting to 6.

    Perth would love it, i.e., I doubt we will ever see 3 at the back again.

    Was just going off TWG's latest squads, which evidently aren't up to scratch. A lot of the arguments you put forward though are based on theoretical signings, I was just putting forward as it stands today (according to TWG).

    Malik is good enough, Chapman isn't the same quality and a weak link in an otherwise strong team.

    Haliti will be our supersub.

    Vugacic left wing back.

    I agree with others in that it would be great to see a back 3 but dont think we have the cattle.

    Reckon on curren't squad it would be the Hoff at RWB and Cowburn/Vujica at LWB... but there's no way we would play a 3-5-2, surely? I'd be tempted to have Jackson in over Kanta as well... give a natural left foot on one side with Boogard in the middle.

    Has anyone been to training and seen anything we are doing or is it all skills and fitness at the moment, no tactical work?

    Looking at those potential first XI for all the teams, one has to be realistic....we are going to have our work cut out once again just to make the top 6.
    Crucial that we get this signing 100% right for the final visa spot since the other one will be handed to a Chinese player just to keep the PR going with our benefactor.....which is all good but...
