The Herald article mentions that the Nix will not be filling there quota of imports and probably only have Daniel.
To tell the truth I am disappointed, I know the imports don't always work out. But I love the glimpse of something spectactular they bring to the game. Patricio (Kingz), Dennis (Kingz), Gao (Knights) Felipe.
Please can we have just one more...

Exactly. We don't need to fulfil the quota just because it's there if we can source the players locally...

I think we are going to need the imports - how thin is our squad going to be during every all white international without them?

I thought the plan was to have no a- league games in the FIFA windows?

That is my understanding Sanday.  Also part of why pwople don't want a nine team league as well, if you have an international break and then the bye week straight after you end up with 3 weeks without a game which coaches won't like.

OK what about the Olympics? that is from august 6th to 24th. That might clash with the first round, and could interrupt pre season as well. I hope not.

Old, Costa, Draper and Spoonley... unlikely to be critical at that point of the season.  ANy of the more established players would only be required if all the European lads got an attack of the Kewell's.
