Looking at those lists who’s coming out best and worst in terms of off-season transfers to you guys? Sydney have to be the worst so far but a couple of teams are doing some decent recruitment going forward so hard to pick a best

Adelaide has picked up some good players but lost an equal amount. So no idea how they will go.

Brisbane are picking up good scraps but didn't have much to work with before hand so no idea there either.

Mariners have replaces 3/4 of a rubbish squad with a bunch of no bodies and old timers. Spoon favourites for sure.

Citeh have lost Arzani and therefore any chance of winning the league. Unless they sign someone big I can see them finishing the same as last year.

Victory have lost their defence but Neidermeier is quality and the FBs they signed are good enough for the HAL. Berisha will be a huge loss for them and they will be weaker for it. They will go nowhere in ACL and be top 4 again in the HAL.

Jets have cut some dead weight but don't have a striker. If we don't sign two decent visa players I won't be confident of another GF appearance.

Perth have signed an entire back line and one of every other position as well. Have probably gone over the cap and will be kicked out of the finals again. Watching Santalab score against the wankerers will be great to see though.

Sydney FC must be waiting for the FFA to announce their new rules before announcing anyone. If they don't sign anyone else they will be caught very easily, if they sign another 20 goal a season striker then it will be their's to lose again.

Wellington have recruited decent players but have a numpty coach who will be sacked after about 10 weeks and are just trying not to get relegated in a one tier football comp.

Wanderers have signed the best players for mine. Baumjohann is a great signing, Zeigler is perfect for our level of football. Coach will have instant respect and could do well. Not sure where the assists will come from now that Lustica has been moved on.


So i'd say

Good window

Wanderers, Victory, Perth, Wellington.

Bad Window so far

Mariners, Sydney

Not much has changed

Jets, Adelaide, Brisbane, Citeh,
