Tolgay Arslan's move to Japan has angered Melbourne City given he asked to leave to be “closer to home.” However, City failing to fulfil a promise of offering a contract extension on the same terms as his existing deal was a major reason for his exit. [nca]https://t.co/CkUGuiSQEa

Alot like the Nix, they will rely on Academy talent hopefully stepping up quickly, and then recruiting new influential visa players. Their visa recruitment has been top notch the last few seasons, and also Nix like they seem to have a stable quality coaching setup.
Very early days but wouldn't surprise if top 6 is VUC, Sydney, Mariners, Nix & Auckland - with either Melb City or WSW.

They love themselves a Brazilian the Mariners. And it's been a very successful strategy. Nix should find out what agent(s) they are using.

At face value it looks a pretty good barometer of the league's financial state. Victory love a flashy forward: Toivonen, Gestede, Nani, Honda, etc. This bloke looks decidedly ordinary, but mind you so did Zawada
They've probably taken a harder financial hit than most a league sides (relative to their normal budgets, I'm sure they still spend more than us)
