Gagame's loss was huge. Also factor in the number of players that left throughout the season to go to Wellington/USA + injuries. Didn't see much of Paul Dirou after he made a brief appearance.
Anyone from the Suburbs squad good enough to make Canterbury United? I wonder if they'd look at Ben Wright. Injury prone, but he's so clinnical. (scoring against Chelsea in a UEFA Cup match is the coolest career highlight)
Rumour has it three of the Suburbs players will play for the Nelson youth team as overage players if they gain entry into that. I'd say the top candidates would Mike White, Jordan Swaney, Ben Wright, Coey Turipa or Mark Johnston. Saying that, all five could be playing ASB Premiership for Canterbury if selected.
Luis I do not think the Youth League rules allow for overage players.
