2012-13 Transfer Rumors

 Alrighty folks, post you confirmed transfers and transfer rumors here...

 i'll start...

chad coombes - auckland to waitakere

dave mulligan - auckland to waitakere

chris bale - waitakere to auckland

ian hogg - auckland to portland

tyler boyd - waikato to phoenix

louis fenton - team wellington to phoenix

paul marshall - three kings to waitakere (coach)

neil emblen - waitakere to free (coach)

These aren't really transfers as such, but Rory Turner and Jack Hobson-McVeigh were playing for Waikato, good young Auckland talent, while Jason Hicks will probably be back with an Auckland team, he's left, class act too.

 rumors and speculation is fine n-bomb - just trying to get some talk going!

was jordan vale playing over the weekend too?  i hear matt upton is making the move south from waitak to waikato as well

After success of player coming to TW, going onto nix academy look for more young talent to try and make the Capital home.

Hamish Watson TW or HBU?

Harley Rodeka Otago to HBU

Clapham to Auckland City side and also one of the Auckland sides looking at Kamo. 

Russell Kamo? Good lord the Auckland sides are not that desperate are they?

Rumour has it three Nelson players with ASB Premiership experience could play in the ASB Youth League to help develop the new squad. Those could be a selection of Mike White, Mark Johnston, Coey Turipa, Jordan Swaney and Ben Wright.

Western Suburbs captain Billy Scott (former Canterbury United yoof) off to YoungHeart Manawatu

Have Waikato signed the Auckland based players ?

Not yet I believe, have signed 2 Chileans, suspect it will be announced tomorrow

 "City’s squad features several new faces with Chris Bale, Jason Hicks, Takuya Iwaya and youngster Finn Cochrane drafted into the mix."

Iwata looked good for Central this season, was hoping he'd go on and play for City. Meant to only be here for 6 months to renew his Visa to play in Australia with the FNQ Bulls in the Queensland league (http://www.qldsl.com.au/article.php?id=1110) but hopefully he'll stay on.

 Chileans Eder Franchini and Alexi Varela confirmed at Waikato from Onehunga

Isn't Bertsch in the Nix Yoof now - would that mean TW?

Some of the nix yoof will be playing with other clubs.. 

Calcott won't play all the youth players at TW

That's a better looking youngheart team with the lower Hutt additions.....

Waikato signed jasper.parkinson.hobson.salter from birkenhead 

Add to that Margetts, Turner and Upton

 Galbraith was playing for Waitak in preseason game today.

So you managed to survive Taihape then?

The question should be directed to the kids.

Apparently squads (minimums) have to be submitted by this Friday. Will they be published somewhere?

Otago Utd's squad is out now.  Interesting that Tim Horner appears to have a made a comeback:
