under a particular set of circumtances, it is clear that you need to take that 'arf' back

Paston, Siggy, Lochead, Brown, Bertos, ...
Was referring to new signings.


the point here might be that lower ranked sides will have players of similar quality to our current Nix-based world cup players

their home leagues might not be as attractive as the A-League, and/or they might just want a better life for their families

the risk is that they will get a better offer from other leagues, but i don't see it as impossible that a world cup player could come into the a-league (preferably with the Nix - if they are decent)
