What was the Nelson vs Ferrymead score from yesterday?
Vim, the players who have left are Joe Green, Jordan Yong, not exactly an import but Matt Shaw, a former NZ secondary school defender, left the same month as those two as well as Jorge Donoso (i believe he's a former tech player) and in my opinion was one of the best Richmond players all season. Ben Wright (champions league goalscorer) is likely to be going to Nelson Suburbs to join Joe Green. Sam Mason-Smith is a very handy player who was an import, but if they can't afford to go in to the MPL then what do any of the players with higher aspirations look up to?
I know of three young players involved in the div one team last year who left for other clubs because they were being forced to play for a division two team.
Nelson Suburbs div 2 team is currently undefeated all season and you could argue would do better than the development team in the Nelson first divison (which is full of kids) Maybe they could look at having two Suburbs teams in that competition.

Wow, makes a massive change I guess. Wonder how the Suburbs players will feel if all these imports now join their team?
