So no Lewis then.
He says the signing of Brandon Wilson concludes their activity in the January transfer window but is looking at prospective Kiwi signings for 2020-21.

Tbh Lewis would be better served by staying in the Handy Prem for the rest of the season anyways. If the Nix signed him, he would be playing for the WeeNix.
does that mean no more player resigning too?
Surely we need a replacement for Hooper? Some1 that can play the full 90min and is not injury prone and comes cheaper then a marquee that goes off the sight of a scratch.

...Sigh.
Does anyone know what his behavioural issues are, sorry if it hasn’t already been mentioned.
Fairly funny comment that.

2 games, 2 goals.

2 starts, 2 goals is what you meant.
I'm not even sure why you bother replying to Royz, he's just a troll.
Hooper's got a goal every 110 minutes he's played - Davila, who has an incredible 10 in 12, has scored every 107 minutes by comparison. Royz mate
Can someone please also look up how many goals we score on average with Hooper on the field, then off, as I think this would be more telling.
I imagine Ridenton will be looking for a contract next year... based on form, and where we are at currently, I don't think he is what we need or good enough to get a gig... but he could be seen as a similar signing to Sotorio, good squaddie??

Hooper has played 196 minutes (out of a total of 1080). In that time we have scored 8 goals. So a goal every 24.5 minutes.
In the other 884 minutes, we have scored 10 goals. A goal every 88.4 minutes.
So despite only playing 18.1% of minutes, we have scored 44.4% of our goals while he has been on the field.

Boom. There it is.
Now we can all shut the fudge up about his input
"But Talay said he would like to keep the former Hamburg product at the club beyond this season and suggested the ball was in Steinmann's court regarding an extension.
"Matti Steinmann is one of those ones we'll still continue on, he's done a fantastic job for us this season and I've had a chat with him on what he wants to do," Talay said."

Cracking stat. Our morale went up when he signed and some pressure was lifted off Bally and Davila, which has helped them imo.

Knew it would be telling, but not that much. Awesome stats. Thanks for putting together.
In this 6 sub appearances:
In his 2 starts, we've been losing once when he came off, and winning once.

With Macarthur starting to poach players, and the Aussie talent starting to be spread very thinly amoung the other 11 teams, you'd expect the Nix with exactly the same squad (with improvements to the ability of the young players) would be an even more serious contender next season.

DeVere, Piscopo, Devlin, Wilson, Sotirio....

Not exactly sure what your point is, but only two of those players (Piscopo and Devlin) would be any cause for concern if they were playing against the Nix. As the Aussie playing stocks are spread thin, the inherent advantage of only the Nix being able to sign the best NZ talent as locals becomes a pretty large advantage.
Plenty banged on about how terrible Ball was at the start of the season and thats been proven to be very wrong
... and Davila, based on his first game
I was horrendously wrong about Davila based on his first game. But having said that, he was appalling in his first game, and Ufuk immediately shifted his position to a CAM which massively reduced his defensive responsibilities and gave him the option to float in between the lines and set up our attacks. I still think he would be not great out wide in our system.
He played out wide v CCM until Ball went off
Agreed and I thought his impact on the game in the first half was massively reduced. Who knows about his defensive responsibilities, CCM barely touched the ball in the first half, only the Ball.

My point was that it is not just the other teams. The Nix are not as 'unattractive' to Australian players as we used to be in the past. We can - now - seriously compete for them based on our financial stability and on a more secure licence basis. Having Australian coaches able to scout for them also helps.
And with Global Warming Wellington summers will become muy bonita.

I look forward to the HAL announcement that due to climate change the next new franchises will be from New Zealand, with Tasmania a backup option.
We should be all in for Rojas if he is available. Make room, guest slots, marquee $$ whatever it takes. He fits into this structure perfectly.

Most likely going to City
and left Welly because we weren't a big enough club for him - city can have him.
besides Talay has already said he was not interested in chasing Rojas.
Rojas is over rated anyway.

Yes well, you can prove anything with facts.

better to prove things with facts that assert things with unsupported opinions.

The club is quite different now though, he left because of the facilities but now we have a purpose training centre.

Gilding the lilly, that's what it would be.

Would we need to give his father a job as well?

Wooooosh!
A-League Hub reporting that City have pulled out and Victory or Wellington are likely destinations for Rojas now.
Given that Uffie said we won't be signing anyone else in January would be hard to see him going anywhere except Victory now.
I'd be very surprised if he ended up here, though I wouldn't complain.
Just look at Saturday, what a massive difference it would have made to have someone of his caliber in the team when we were missing Ball and Piscopo..
It won't happen though.
