An article a while back had him as the 2nd most valuable player in the comp at around 15million rand not sure of the conversion. His form has been really good in club land throughout most of his career even at the nix when he had the dry run he still managed to keep chipping in assists at a decent rate and did similar in the MLS if I recall. I think the biggest thing for him at super sport is that he isn't playing as a lone striker which seems to suite him. I think he could do a decent job for the AW as a 2nd striker with woodsy out in front. His record up until this point has been pretty bad but I can't remember him playing many full games at CF and to be fair we have probably seen the worst AW run in recent memory plus a lot of others Barba, Rojas seem to have records just as bad.

I seriously hope Fallon was just there to do a job for the OFC Cup. He's now a part time player in the 6th tier of the U.K. I admire and thank him for coming back into the fold recently but there is no place for him in the team 18 months away from WC intercontinental qualifier. He did as well, maybe better, than expected but we all had pretty low expectations. He was never quick but now is plain slow and if Hudson is true to his word we will be playing a quicker, possession based game. If he comes back it might just be for a qualifier in the islands if someone is injured and Hudson plays hoofball again.

On Jeremy, I still think he would go ok in a front three for the AWs. He's not great with his back to goal but a pretty handy crosser and finisher. It was pretty hard for anyone to look good recently. I wouldn't base my opinion on his form on that alone. 

People always said football is not about sentiment, loyalty, favour, we all know that; but in the realistic world, is it the really liked that? Not really.

 I think the first few games when Hudson take over, he ignore all the experience and rely on his young guns, they just can't win games. I won't say Fallon is Messi on Ronaldo, but certainly if you had an old man play up front, the passion, determination, and leadership, at the moment, nobody can replace. Yes Truro is 6th tier of the UK League, but we all know the English dominate the Premier League, and nearly the Championship too. I watch the National League highlights from BT Sports and Youtube last year, the football they play, are not the kind of old fashioned British Football, they build up from the back and pass on the ground. I would say it's not the 6th tier, perhaps it's 4th tier.

About Brockie, he just lack of desire and determination to play for the All Whites, liked someone said he's a good League player but not in international levels.

Every time I see something about Brocks doing well over there it makes me happy.  He was just such a good character when he was here so while it would have been better for him to be doing awesome here, its aweosme just seeing him do well.

So Sundowns join Auckland City at Club World Champs?

Looks like they won final over 2 legs 3-1 on aggregate vs Zamalek SC from Egypt.

http://au.soccerway.com/international/africa/caf-champions-league/2016/s12346/final-stages/

Be an interesting indicator as to what level is the South African PSL, if ACFC get drawn to play Sundowns

He had a ha trick of assists 1st, 4th and winning the penalty he converted technically an assist for the final goal. 4 goals and 4 assists in 11 games all competitions. Interested to see a south african team compete at the club world cup a few internationals have been returning to the local comp of late Darren keet was a regular in Belgiums first division you would imagine it being on the up

According to his wife, he was lucky to avoid injury after suffering a rather nasty tackle to his ankle.

For some reason he hasn't been in the squad in the two latest league matches. Perhaps he's injured from that tackle above?

Yep, he is hoping to be back for the Cup Final but it sounds touch & go whether he will be fit.

Jeremy Brockie is the most deluded New Zealand footballer I'm aware of. Always doing nothing the All Whites. In an ideal world he never would've gotten so many caps with the All Whites in the first place.

He should never have been played as a right wing back. That was the biggest problem. If he'd had the chance to build an understanding up front with the other regulars he could have been quite handy. 

Writing him off as deluded and doing nothing for the AWs when being played out of position for so long is garbage
