anyone know what is happening with simon arms?
Beneath you.
This weekend will most likely be Tamati, Irving, Ivan, Berlanga, Milne, Bale, Billen, Feneridis, Dick, Danko, Krishna... 4 kiwis
Whose behind them... the new Spanish guy, Tade, Burfoot. In the wider squad you have Browne, White and his happy meals, George, Pritchett, some kids called Dean. The common theme is 'not many Kiwis'. This team would not play in the A League for all their chest beating cause they are about 100 imports over the quota
Why would you stick around if you were a Kiwi and had ambition? You can probably bet de Vries will never be seen again despite starting at Waitakere the last 3 years. Throw in the hack that is 4 touch Turner who should never be seen again.
When you ask how Simon Arms is going, ask him nationality first and that will answer your question
5 Kiwis in that 1st XI. Plus 3 more that are NZ Residents.
13 Kiwis in 21 players quoted so thats a few more than "not many kiwis"
And only 3 of Irving, Berlanga, Bilen and Spanish guy can play at a time
Do players in A-League that are NZ/Aus residents but not able to play for NZ/Aus class as imports in A-League?
If not then a few in that list would be eligible and not be imports.
So why has Arms not been signed by anyone else then?
Maybe he's injured?
Do you know for sure or just taking sh*te yet again
I see JV's point but unfortunately as you say, his facts are astray. The likes of Danko, Burfoot and Browne are long established NZ residents so to brand them foreigners is pushing the bile. Both Burfoot and Browne could well end up as All Whites like Durante. I too would like ACFC to be more of a pathway for young NZ talent and feel we've relied too much on imports. On the other hand I want to see good players and we need to be competitive in the O League and CWC. It's a balancing act.
