Honestly, why not. Give him 5 years and if he/the club decides it's enough after 3 years, transition him to an assistant manager role. Would love to see clubs reward their long serving players in that way!!

Yeah we wouldn't take him. Stajcic would most likely sign someone from the NPL, such as our former Academy player Steve Whyte.

Great to lock in the Brox, wish it was for longer!

Obviously depending on the new manager's judgment, but would be good to see Hope loaned out - CCM maybe? 

At this stage I think he's clearly got some talent but needs more gametime. 

And Hope has signed on, the new Jai Ingham.

Mrs Hope on the money again .. 

Club has clearly been reading this forum.

Josh Hope also re-signed this season, for at least 1 more year (source- his mum on FB )

pretty sure Broxy signed on for next season a few weeks ago.

Not only is Brown signed for next year, but King Kenny as well. 

Nooooooooo

Broxham is out of contract as well. However with the loyalty exemption and him being a fan favourite he would almost certainly get a new contract for a couple of years.
Brown still has another year on his contract. 

So we still have Brox, Roux, Lesiostis, Deng and Lawrence on contract, Troisi and Kosta are free agents. Donchs has gone back to Korea.

Does that mean we still have Brown??

What if Marco  was in Melbourne to sign for city

Pls no.

New coach is gonna have a blank slate and a lot of cap/visa space to work with.

Perhaps he has a love nest in East Melbourne overlooking the park & is going there for some well deserved off season shagging.   

I'd much rather Aloisi than Kurz. 

Could also just be a case of someone who was forced to stay in Adalaide doing the first thing they could do as soon as they were allowed to leave - go straight to Melbourne.

No, No, NO - stick to the SCRIPT Victory ... you must hire Aloisi and keep the circus going !!! 

Agreed, and as I understand points are awarded per game, win or loss, explaining why reliable midfielders and defenders have won it over the years.

I've seen some people suggest my namesake winning says a lot about our season. I look at it as a club stalwart getting a well deserved accolade after years of great service. His contribution to the club will never be considered as high as Kev and Archie, but internally he'll be held in very high regard.  

Well deserved.

Neider too?

:(
Would give him a marquee contract for his social media videos alone!

Baena gone confirmed:

Thought this would be the case. We've traditionally never had too many soft tissue issues, but seems like they plagued every member of the squad this season. 

Whether this was luck, poor training methods, poor recovery etc I'm not sure, but happy the new Coach will be able to bring his own people in. 

Crea gone apparently.
