I want less recycling.
There are good players out there who haven't been through half the league.
According to NBN news facey page, looks like we have re-signed Ibini for the next year..
Would you guys play Ibini at #10 or winger? Bernie would be good running at players in the middle, just behind Roy.

I'd play him where we were playing him
At the end of the season

Makes you wonder how many players are in the same position.with the uncertainty around the new collective bargaining agreement for the next A-League season, or when the new campaign kicks off, a loan spell or permanent move may be the right option.
Just had 4 months off, then the perspective of 4 or 5 more.
A professional league with no idea when (or if...) the're going to start playing again.
You’d hope there has been a lot of internal discussions about how the next season will look and when it will start.
They have a tv deal until July 2021. So I’m assuming they’ll have a June/July grand final.
12 teams, probably lends itself to a 22 game season in the current climate.
Wouldnt surprise me if we go with a January start.
With travel and quarantine periods presumed to be done with soon but not not a sure thing, I think you’d get a lot of disgruntled players if their Christmas was ruined with quarantine or lockdown.
I think the next 2.5 years will see another boom or bust.
