    But still not keen on Austin. But can we be choosy at the moment? What else is out there in the market?

    It honestly sucks so hard that we are looking at him. He has some pace but no football brain. Surely Ernie couldn't work his Nabbout magic on someone that bad.

    Here's a terrible question to answer. Who would you rather... Austin or Virgilli??? No talent gypo, but young and could improve, versus a local guy who just isn't up the level?

    Someone who has got a football brain and should be signed by an A League club is Danny Choi from Blacktown City.

    Was brilliant in their final match of the season on the weekend. Much better all round footballer than Mitch Austin.

    Well the good news is you set the bar low with your first post so expectation won't get the better of you in the future.

    If he not Aust then we would be using a Visa spot on a player who may not necessarily be a starter week in week out. We went down this road with Brown wasting a visa spot.

    This bloke had a run for Adelaide a couple of years back after he scored a70 yard goal in the FFA Cup

    Wasnt a foreigner then from memory as he was signed as an injury replacement

    Was released after being found not good enough


    Dont believe all the BS hype about the NPL

    There are plenty of guys going around who can do just as shit a job as BK Matt Simon and Tarek Elrich do in the HAL

    There aint a hell of a lot who are actually better than the decent HAL players

    That's mostly BS. He was signed as injury replacement for Carrusca. He then fractured his foot, required surgery, out for 12 weeks and was released as Carrusca came back from injury.


    Not debating whether he was good enough or not, but your claims about his signing and release are wrong.
