There won't be no back tracking from me on Birraz.

The bloke has some issues to work on with his game. No surprise there he is young and inexperienced.

The bloke though is a very good shot stopper and has the balls to put his head on the line to dive at the feet of an attacker when needed without giving a second thought about preserving his hair or his face.

Add this to much better decision making skills and the bloke will be spending 10 plus years playing in Europe and competing for Socceroos No 1 spot.

It is this decision making stuff that is holding him back from securing a move to Europe.

I am just firmly of the opinion that Birraz is a much better keeper all round and will always be a much better keeper than BK.


If his rival for the No 1 was not a local I seriously doubt we would be having this discussion. Some of the shit talked abut Birraz and his attitude and that he couldn't care less is a ****ing disgrace when 99% of blokes here would have NFI.

I also find it disgraceful that other than Taylor Reegz and Hooley there are about 5-6 locals in the squad who to me look like they don't ****ing care enough on the park about representing their fans and their hometown. Where the **** is the passion from them??

Considering our squad is basically a transient lounge year to year most of the locals are the longest serving players at the club. Where the **** is the culture from them about being all Newy and aiming up for the town etc???

When they ain't doing it is a bit much to expect the players bought in from outside the Hunter to have a greater passion for the cause. It is a disgrace that the bloke who shows the most passion for our club and fans has spent 5 years away walking the earth and in 30 mins of his comeback could show more passion for the cause than these blokes have in their combined ****ing careers
