If every other club in the A-league has young players ripping up, why cant we, who cares if they are aussie, success for the phoenix should be first priority. Excuse my spelling please
I have no problem with that, I just think that a player that the leagues leading youth development club is chucking in a season where he played under 100 minutes isn't good enough for us.
I'd much rather kiwi locals but if we find a good Australian youngster that is missed by the Aus sides (missed, not ignored) then damn right we should sign them.
there are good young kiwi players coming through like brockie...but we dont manage to sign them
