Expired 21/22 and decision outstanding
3 Jason Hoffman - Announced as re-signed, 1 year
5 Ben Kantarovski
11 Daniel Penha - Loan - see what happens
13 Brandon Wilson - I preferred O'Doherty, but Wilson is OK - keep unless better option
14 Mohamed Al-Taay - meh, don't think we need so many backup midfielders but do need some.
16 Kosta Grozos - meh - preferred Al-Taay to Grozos but maybe there's something I don't see, won young player of the year for us somehow, maybe a training God.
20 Michael Weier - keep
23 Eli Babalj - meh
25 Samuel Silvera - loan - Showed promise at the end of the season, wouldn't mind keeping as a bench player
26 Archie Goodwin - Keep
28 Blake Archbold - Who?

Expiring 22/23
02 Dane Ingham - signed until 22/23 - need better as a first choice
05 Jordan Elsey - signed until 22/23 - See how he goes next season, hopefully with a new partner
06 Matthew Jurman - signed until 22/23 - Had one good game all season imo, for the assumed coin and being club captain, needs to do better
09 Beka Mikeltadze - signed until 22/23 # - Classy player, I would guess would work even better alongside another striker or more goalscoring wingers.
27 Lucas Mauragis - signed until 22/23 ^ - keep, decent option off bench
32 Angus Thurgate – signed until 22/23 - keep, key team member
30 Noah James - signed until 22/23 ^ - no idea
44 Riley Warland - signed until 22/23 - Looked OK towards the end, maybe viable as backup defender.

Expiring 23/24
23 Jack Duncan - signed until 23/24

9 players signed for next season
- 9 A-League squad players from possible 23
- 1 Visa spot (Mikeltadze) from possible 5
- 4 Scholarships (Mauragis, James, Goodwin and Archbold) from possible 3 (?)
Need a new CB and some wingers - we could do with a lot of "starters" to be honest.
From above list, I'd only have Beka, Penha (if) Gus, Weier, Elsey as preferred starters. Goodwin if fit?
Hoff, Wilson, Mauragis, Warland, Silvera can do a job.
Rest are bench material or replaceable for me.
