Twitters said a couple of the academy lads are there.
Nix Transfer Speculation 2019-20
yeah Rollo reckons far left is Sam Sutton.
Ok L to R - people help me out here:
?, Aidan Wivall (S&C Coach), McCowatt, Taylor, Tom Scott (Lower Hutt player), Devlin, Elliot, Walter Scott, Ball, DeVere, Davila (obscured), McGing, Rufer, Semmy (obscured), Waine, TAHW, Sotirio, Payne, Cacace.
No sign of Sail or Marinovic, nor Fenton (still injured?).
I don't recognise the No. 3 far left, but think he's the only unknown to me there.
Has JHS trained with them at all or Shivjers who seems to have a lot of fans amongst this site??
That pic's from last week as well, FWIW.
We should throw money at Leroy George. Is what we need in the winger spot and was one of MV's best ever imports imo.

Playing well with his current team, must be on fairly a lot tho.

JHS has broke some bones in his foot & is out for up to 12 weeks, so that rules him out of any Nix trial (if he was going too get one)

Well in that case he's not playing badly is he?
Phillip Rollo confirms that no other trial players will be singed so that obivuoisly means no Semmy.

Does this mean we've got our imports ready to be confirmed?
Hope Semmy goes back to the Handy and has a ripper season, and maybe put himself in the mix for next season.
Got to be a good sign if all the other trialists have been released. Talay must be confident in bringing in better quality. Still 2 import spots + another 2 or 3 places available.

Andy Carrol would be great, if he wasn't made of wet paper.

Going off what others have said about the game last night, this is how I guess we are looking right now
There are 3 areas that jump out as needing those last two visa slots. I would go for visas to replace Sotirio and Devlin, however another senior DM would be nice to have. TAHW can push forward into a DM role but for such a vital area of the park, we are really lacking experience at this level.
Ball and Payne were both on the left side of their pair not the right, not that it's a major

Fun Friday Afternoon Game: Add any A-League Player to this line-up
I'd replace Sotirio with Toivonen. Could argue we don't need a target man with two up front but could drop him a little deeper in behind Ball.

Or Leroy George.
He's looking for a new club.
that Singh chap might be worth a look

I reckon he’d tear up the aleague.

I don't know. He is a bit small.
best he stay with with the old mods called pub football - we don't need alcoholics

I know he's moved on now, but Isais - Aussie too.

Well someone's been drinking at least

It wouldn't be so bad if they limited their drinking to the pub, but they drink on the park as well!
Andy Keogh (if he becomes an Aussie in a few weeks) would be ideal.

Once he becomes an Aussie he will be in demand with the Australian clubs, and I doubt that the first place he'd choose to play for would be New Zealand.
This thread has been pretty light on speculation so I'm going to make some up because I need some hope we're going to sign some players.
My nieces Aunts brother-in-law told me that we're signing Balotelli

Would that be Arthur Balotelli? Owns a chip shop. Nice fella.
It has been very quiet of late... waiting to see what happens when the dust settles in Europe and who is left looking?
Two more import players will bring the squad to 19/23. Probably looking at an additional 3 Kiwi/Australian players to meet league requirements of squad size and cap spend. No real way to predict the imports, but there's really only a small list of local players that could be a genuine option.
In terms of Aussie players, it would surely have to be dipping into the NPL. There are barely any pro players left without a club, best of the bunch would be Aryn Williams and Chris Herd who have just finished stints in the Indian league after not so convincing A-League seasons, so that sums that up.
Uffie said a few weeks ago we were talking to a couple of Kiwi players overseas. There aren't many of them, so surely it we've been in contact with at least one of these players:Elliot Collier, Clayton Lewis, Nikko Boxall, Ryan de Vries, Marco Rojas, Jeremy Brockie, Decklan Wynne, Bill Tuiloma, James Musa. You'd have to say Rojas and Tuiloma would be pretty unlikely to come to the nix, but I'd be interested in any of those coming to Wellington except Brockie.

Watto and Awad are overseas too ;)
