    Castro wouldn't work here. Doesn't have enough mongrel and doesn't understand the Newy way.

    No he doesn't

    Kenny has said he don't like playing Castro and Marinkovic in the same 11 as he thinks both are not up to it defensively and the team's is defending with 9

    Castro is one of the main reasons Perth have a defensive record on par with us

    He don't defend and Perth like to try turning the game into an end to end contest to give Castro space to play in

    I love watching the bloke carve it up but he doesn't put in defensively

    Smurfs main attribute this season has been them all putting in defensively.

    Bobo Kokko Brosque Ninkoovic are all closing opponents down

    Castro hasn't closed a bloke down in the last 2 years

    Castro 21 tackles/13 intercepts
    Bobo 16/10
    Brosque 19/12
    Ninkovic 37/40


    Where are you making your stats up from, Membah?

    Whilst I understand the whole "defend with 11" shit who gives a ****. Bloke absolutely runs their team in attack. That's like saying the best CB in the comp doesn't contribute because he doesn't score enough goals

    Would rather win 5-4 than lose 0-1.

    I love how football cognoscenti insist a high scoring game is "poor" football, technically and tactically.

    Not that I disagree with what your saying but your point is what??

    The original thing was no manager in the league wouldn't want Castro

    I am saying Arnold would not take him

    I legitimately believe this too.

    Castro is everything Arnold hates in a footballer and none of Arnold's teams have had a star

    Just 11 blokes all chipping in

    Ninkovic doesn't neglect his defensive duties though

    Last game we played it was mind blowing how hard Bobo Brosque Ninkovic Holosko were making us work when we had the ball at the back

    Despite the big $$$ and success they were busting their arse chasing at times lost causes

    Where as our blokes would let Smurfs have a free ticket into our half as Nordstrand and Brown and Raheem etc just watched the ball go past them without breaking a sweat

    You stated Arnold's teams don't have stars. I merely corrected you.

    I wouldn't say Ninkovic is a star
    Castro is 20 times the player

    Ninkovic just had a very good season in a side on fire

    When Smurfs fortunes run out he won't be the same player

    Castro on the other hand would be a star even in our shit side

    Now, The member may be a raving bag of annoying but i feel like some of you kids need to start reading before you post your internet fury on here.

    The original point made was that Arnold wouldn't want him. Sydney just set a points record and won the league at a canter. They don't need to sign anyone so unfortunately the member is 100% right in this instance. Castro isn't needed at Sydney. Period. Deal with it.

    The member even said multiple times how good he though Castro was, you are all on the same page that Castro is the best individual player in the league. So why are you feeding him more fuel for his flat earth powered mind control devices that I assume he fuels with the hatred of Jets fans on the internet?

    Lean back in your chair (read: 'Throne' for those of us that are as rich as Hawk) and think about the post before retorting. Mostly because i'm sick of having to scroll through 20 posts of people arguing about minor details with the member just to get the posts that matter.


    Why haven't we got Jets Shaped Hats?
    Why haven't we signed Steve Lustica?
    Why haven't we merged with the Sauce bottles yet?
    When is SD having his next Pool party?
