Most Aucklanders wouldn’t cross the bridge north, if they didn’t have to and there are many great parts of Auckland to live which don’t include Remuera.

If the shore was all that, they would have a football stadium people would frequent.

The North Shore is the part of Auckland which really is like the horror stories that the rest of NZ tells about Auckland. Endless suburban sprawl inhabited by the biggest  bunch of GET OFF MY LAWN yelling, SUV-driving Karens and man-Karens you could imagine.

Coulibaly too! Now I'm going to have to have a serious word. 😅

Ahh, and they've just announced Middleton as well.

The City players I had the "pleasure" of sitting within earshot of a few months ago who proceeded to spend 60 minutes bagging Oliver will be fuming.

Sounds perfect for an ex EPL footballer and his family.

The Port - Auckland FC
Top contributor
The good news keeps coming for The Port!
We have locked down Lilyworld at Mt Smart as our home game pub!
Perfect location with direct access to the South Stand, straight into The Port end
The fan culture starts here - pre-match and post-match drinks and chants - the atmosphere will be electric!
With a capacity of 600+ we’ll get it humming on game day.
This is only the beginning, more details to come.

Hopefully both Gillion boys can early on, crack their respective Nix/AFC club match day squads. Will add some good buildup banter to the derbies!

Apparently their sister plays Futsal for NZ. Talented family.

Hint on their Supporters FB group, of some more player announcement(s) Thursday. Sakai, Elliot, Champness aka JOWIC?

Apparently it could be AFC's first foreign (Aussie and/or visa) player announcements tomorrow.

Any updates on who the imports may be from our sauce?

Sakai seems the only visa player rumour at the moment. Zawada must be a chance until either he signs somewhere overseas, or quietly flys into the 09 for an unveil just prior July pre season training.

Brimmer & Hall your Aussies. Elliot & Champness the leading (non scholarship) Kiwi candidates.

Corica has said the visa players likely won't be confirmed until July/August.

I can't believe anyone would be paying money for Zawada given the state of his injuries

Tend to agree, before last season I could see there being a few that were watching, but after last season's run of injuries Id expect the suitors would be looking at other options. Even if he's healthy now, the risk of getting injured again is just too high, especially for a new club who will want to make a mark early on the league.

Sakai signed apparently. 
No word on announcement though. Had seen another bloke who was associated with the port say 'Keep an eye out on Thursday' but I haven't heard anything else sorry.
