Nicked this off the Sydney forums for all to mull over.

Glen Moss just re-signed with GC.Actually a few have been announced since this list was made.

Is Lochhead going to stay!? I was sure we had him tied up.

FuckingGoodforNothing.

Notice Shane Smeltz isn't on the GCU list.  What about Nick Ward, how long did we sign him for?

Nick Ward is off contract unless he has signed something in the last few days. So is Jade North as far as I am aware.

Jade North has been released by mutual consent. Nick Ward is off contract but has got to be priority behind Rojas

Apparently the Koffee has gone cold lately...

I'd be happy with Kofi Danning

I wouldn't.

So Birighitti and Danning are the two? That is very average. Yeah that's true, Lovemore would be pretty good.

How many youth players are we going to need to add for next year?

There might be mistakes I don't really know, I just got it off some Sydney fella.

Not quite

I thought the right back was supposed to be dutch?

On the right track, but not quite there

Paston (cough)

We only need three youth players if we sign the full 23 players I think. So if we have 22 we need 2 youth players etc

That's the minimum we need to sign isn't it though, nothing saying we can't sign more if we want (and if they're quality enough)

german or belgian perhaps.

Getting colder now

Randy van Warmer?

this thread is too big to go through

Everyone out.

I think he was referred to be one whom wears orange. I think we would be more likely to hazard a guess at a brisbane player such as Mundy???



Oh I had heard the danning rumour actually. Hmm think he could be alright in a front three, but lovemore perhaps could be a better option. However why not take both?

Quick.  Not much else.

whats the point in signing players if we won't have a club.

anyone for Reece?

What the tubby Scot said.

It's pretty hard to do that entirely. Does Ricki know what his budget is? $$$ for marquee player available?

I should think that Ricki knows his budget. Remember that there have already been real negotiations with Marco in which a $$$ figure was put on the table, and apparently a pretty chunky one at that. So Ricki must have confidence making up a player budget, barring disasters and accidents and dodgy Indians.

Remember that not only is there a salary gap, but there is also a salary floor.  SO would have a fairly good idea of what his budget is.

Salary gap?
