I uncertain about whether Smeltz's return is goo or bad, who does he replace in the starting lineup? Watson? hopefully not cos Watson is doing really well. He surely can't be coming in for wee mac while injured.

Aging Smeltz > Watson

Disagree strongly. Smeltz's last stint in the A-League was poor.

Hardly an inspiring signing that will kick start our season, is it?

In an extremely average Sydney team, he still managed to score a goal every 4 games.

I am not saying he is the messiah, but he noes how to operate inside the oppositions Penalty area. We also have to be realistic, we can only sign a kiwi or an Aussie at the moment (indication that Roly is going nowhere?). 

Sure Smelttz has his limitations but is Watson an answer ?  

play him with Krishna up front with Kosta outwide. I don't think it likely Watson and Smeltz would feature together- but I think Watson could learn an enormous amount from him. How many times has Watson blasted a shot into a block in the last 3-4 games? IMO plenty.  

Fark- I'm super happy. No Smeltz no Phoenix IMO.

couldn't find the Melbourne goal- but here's this...Actually it's in there at 1.08.
