Overall I'm happy with this. He tends to run a bit hot and cold but he was very, very good last season.
Didn't do much last season - hence why Adelaide wanted to terminate his contract this season if any club would take him - but performed quite well in the couple of seasons before and in their ACL run. Though so did Diego so..
Think he'll probably be a decent squad player behind Leo and Ifill. Really just depends who else we sign.
One thing he does have going for him is that he seems to be a good presence off the field and will fit in pretty well with our current group of players I reckon.
And Auckland - Pantelis hasn't had any amazing pace for a while. Not sure about Downey..when he was playing for NQ it looked like the injury had really affected him
And Scot, wanting us to reach higher standards isn't negative - we seem to be repeating the same mistakes every season. Of course this pre-season is a little different with all of the trouble surrounding the club, though, and honestly i'm just happy that we're still here.valeo2011-05-15 20:29:24
