Attacking Mids - Sanchez, Ward and Brown with head bandage
Defensive Mids - Muscat, Lia and Brown without head bandage




Fixed


To answer the original quoter, it was only a summary based on where they "normally" play. All the central mids can interchange but where Lia plays more defensive, Brown is often higher up the field. If you want my actual opinion on him, he should be played at "Left Right Out". /taxi

Not sure if it's "confirmed" confirmed, but for me (and maybe I'm too optimistic) but this seems like a very good piece of business. It's only three months, so we can check him out, and if he impresses like I think he might, we will be the first to lock him up on a longer deal.

Its interesting he said he was excited for the season. When what he is rumoured to have signed is for injury cover. Tegal2011-10-07 14:52:43

Allegedly

Great endorsement for the young guy.

Will be great for us as it means another guy traning with the club, plus if he looks the goods, we will have first pick.
Also means theres an ideal injury replacement if we ever needed a defender

Cameron Lindsay is rated 65 on FIFA12. Expected to have to make the kid, turns out he's on the books of Blackburn on the game and is a right back.

Useless info

I guess that's the other scholarship that was hinted at a few weeks back, in lieu of our YF Scholarship?

He's cute.  Not in a VL 'cute' way but in a 'sweet looking child' way.

And -Marco

�
Realistically, Marco was no on the Radar until well into second half of season


Also realistically, without Marco we wouldn't have made the playoffs last season, so it's not unreasonable to assume that his absence will be felt.


we've only really had marco when ifill was missing, for me they cancel each other out

re: Kaltak, didn't he already play for the Nix in one of the pre-season games? the one at Waikefield park?

Good on him. I haven't seen him play for Karori, so don't know what he is like. In that pre-season game he seemed a bit excited and out of place, but I guess that's only normal given his age. From that game I remember Pantelis scoring a beauty and Brian Bran impressing at CB. Shame he didn't sign..!

So with Cameron Lindsay, we now have 3 under-21 players, and they are all defenders

wish we had attackers or creators.

Chettleburgh, Payne, Lovemore, Lucas would have been prefferable to griffiths.

What happened to rowe?
