The pessimist in me says don't get too excited, we're only warming him up for Wankerers when Robbo leaves, especially if Papas starts producing results there will suddenly be some clause in his contract saying WSW saw him first...

Life isn't the same without Con... but it can only improve without Tinks...
I am just as concerned when the time comes to sign any o/seas players and Mattiske has to run it by the other club owners. The pessimist in me thinks if we find a hidden gem somebody like Lederer will make sure they go to the WSW after our blokes do the grunt work.
Interesting that should it be official that we sign Devlin that Wellington were happy to let him go.

I know it’s sold as “the football operations remain confidential and up to the administrators of the club” so maybe any player within the cap is kind of up to us, but I imagine anything over that is subject to review.
Also interested how the other clubs in the ownership model feel about the ugar situation.

of course they made him an offer, he didnt want to have the uncertainty of "am i going to be based in NZ or Wollongong" and was sold on the Papas project
Jaliens gives me the horn
Can we get him to have a word in the ear of Piscopo and drag him over also ?. Knowing our luck some blind bastard will still think Ridenton is a footballer and offer him a deal.
Seems to be saying all the right things atm.
At least sounds decisive and sure of his plan.
The only stat that matters is the gypo +/- coefficient equation.has he signed more gypos than he has cut.
Can a stat man please find this pit for all coaches. Actually don't ill just make some numbers up to suit my argument.
One point for cutting a gypo, minus one for signing one of the filth.
From memory.
Pappas +5.

Pappas doing it correctly. Hail Griff.
Everything he is saying is positive

Dunno if any of you guys joined in on the zoom meeting with Papas tonight, but honestly I'm fully sold on this bloke win or lose.
He comes off as someone who cares about the club, is playing a fun style of football and is instilling a similar philosophy in his players. I really do feel like we are in good hands as a club
