If we are talking about booting people out, you have to factor in who would replace them as well. Given that Virgili is local, likely not on massive coin and seems content being nothing more than a squad player used as an impact sub, why would you get rid of him? He is the exact kind of player that the club should be using for depth for a few seasons... kind of like keeping KB around or using Cowburn as 4th choice CB. I also don't get the Goodwin hate... in his two seasons here, he has shown more end product than Virgili in his 4 years. Maybe under a coach who isn't a complete dick, he might be back on the fringe of the Socceroos and off to Reading in the summer.
I am not sure what Oxborrow offers apart from a giraffe like neck and monstrous Adams Apple.
