Anyone else support a team in the Mainland league? Nelson Suburbs are looking pretty decent this year, but will be without influencial striker Sam Ayers who is heading off overseas. Might be hard for them to score goals now, he was their best threat on attack and was equal leading goal scorer.
The obvious replacement is Nayland College striker Gagame Feni who is from the Solomon Islands but because he's only 17 he's not allowed to play under FIFA's rule that overseas players must be 18. Surely when he's over here getting an education and it's completely amatuer that he should be allowed to play. He's one of the best strikers at secondary school level in the country.
