Like all Nix supporters, in 2011/12, I want us to be genuine title contenders.
To be genuine title contenders we are going to need a striker of Smeltz or van Dijk's calibre i.e. significantly better than Mac.
That would leave the option of retaining Mac as a bench player - I don't believe he has the characteristics of an impact player off the bench - if he is retained for that role then it begs the question; why did we extend Greenie ?
P.S. The A-League record for Smeltz is a goal every 1.6 games, Mac averages a goal every 5 games van Dijk's average is a goal every 1.8 games.
