I guess I wasn't the only one wondering about the "transition year" comment by Ricki after the Roar game.
I thought It was an interesting comment, as this is Ricki's last year contracted as the coach. This is the season that we will judge his reign on, even if the 2 year option on 'football related matters' means he keeps coaching the team. It really shouldn't be a transition year, it should be the season that all the hard work of previous seasons pays off.
