With GCU only offering their players one-year deals, what are the chances of poaching Joel Porter and offering him a few more years. Is he worth it though?

He spent more time injured than he did on the park. Not surprising, must be huge strain on the body, hauling that huge nose around.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Ange Postecoglou was one of at least three A-League coaches keenly observing the VPL on the weekend with the league�s top scorer Jesse Krncevic said to have impressed. 26 year-old striker? would come reasonably cheap.

Or biffing himself to the ground on those hard Australian pitches.

Porter has hardly set the league alight. Would need to be cheapish.

Won't happen especially when USA/Qatar are also interested. Better league = USA, better money = Qatar.

UPDATE on the Ivan Franjic situation: He is going out in Wellington tonight with Kosta Barbarouses.

(Hopefully to sign contracts with Terry).

I'm still hopeful.

One of this old legends could really come and do a Robbie Fowler for us, and if Bobby just wants to play, drink some wine, and play some football then sweet as!

We won't sign any huge name. If we were to waste $1million it would've gone on Shane Smeltz.

Exactly, and the STD (soccer transfered diseases) that come with it isn't worth it. Things like big head, oversize ego, and "i'm the boss b*tch" mentality can really mess with a team.

Sign Pires, way more bang for your buck.

He has already been quoted as saying that he would rather go to Qatar.

Got to get through 18th of April yet. No one in their right mind would sign for a club whose owner may be liquidated and the club's future uncertain.
