I can’t wait until the next season starts. I feel optimistic that we could put out a competitive team. The worry is having to be based in Australia. It just didn’t work last time. Hopefully things will change in the New Year and the team can be based in Wellington. We were great at home last year. As far as the starting eleven goes for 27 December how about this?

                   Marincovic

Fenton. de Vere     Whihongi   ?????

             Rufer.    Devlin

Piscopo.      Davila.       Sotirio

                  Waine

I have assumed that De Vere fancies another season and Davila’s recent social media post means he is interested in coming back. Left back is a issue..... is McGarry an option?

All things considered this is not a bad A-Leage team. A bit lite at the back with Taylor and Cacace absent but it has a very strong midfield and good pace out wide.Ten of the side are from last season and know Uffie systems of playing. Off the bench you would look to Payne to cover RB and DM. You would have to look to the Academy kids to fill the roster and I am sure Uffie can find some gems out of Australia.

Why wouldnt Ball be starting. Thought it had been mentioned earlier on that next season may be about using more of the youth which wont be a bad thing at all. Just hope people have realistic expectations if they are expected to be based away from home.Dont think its ant more a make or break season than any others have been since we started.

I didn’t realize he is still around. But if he is 100% he starts. Throw in Lewis and Sutton and the front end looks good. It’s the defense that looks thin. Even if we get De Vere back there is no depth. Without him we would have problems. In Uffie we trust! I am sure he will find someone......maybe another experienced CB from UK???? I am not worried about our team for next season. Other A-league teams are going to have more problems than us restocking their squads. If we get Davila, Ball, de Vere, McGarry, Lewis we are 90% there.

Our attack looks as blunt as my hammer. Only reliable goal scorer there is Davila, the rest can't buy a goal. If he gets marked out of a game, well you only have to look at our last 4/5 games to see how ineffectual our attack is.  We need a goal scoring forward and to keep De Vere and Hudson-Wihongi on the books.
