Which sucks imo - a player is either loyal or they aren't. Gives clubs more incentive for clubs to tie players down to longer contracts if the loyalty exemption is uncapped, especially if they can get generous cap exclusions. It'd be a band-aid solution to the entire salary cap nonsense, but a positive one, not to mention that, as Feed_The_Brox mentioned, if a club can save anywhere up to $500k in the cap thanks to loyalty exemptions, that's a pretty handy visa player, which in turn leads to a better competition yadayadayada

It's a bit of a strange rule, but at least MV will be able to utilise that full $200k exemption. With the high turn over of players in the league, I reckon there aren't many other clubs that can take full advantage of the rule next season.

Just chatting to a mate of mine. He was talking about the NPL team and how the Goalkeeper they'd signed from the AIS has been on a mid-season break, and the stand-in keeper who's had some stand-out performances in recent weeks including a man of the match performance, is likely to be dropped because of the agreement A-League clubs have with guaranteeing playing time to these guys from the AIS. 

Is this not where Australia's youth system fails its players? The politics of it all just pisses me right off. I might be taking this out of proportion, but Fuck me, the guy deserves his spot!! He's miles ahead of him in development and older, wheres the logic?

Thank god we're getting away from the AIS, such bullshit!!

Playmaker, technically sound, I think he plays predominantly as a 10 but drifts out wide.

So another Pasquali type then, it would be interesting if he gets game time next season.

Curtis Good has officially left Newcastle United - source

With the rumours of Donachie leaving for Korea still persisting, is Good worth a punt? Had a terrible injury record at the Toon, but we kept Rhys Williams together last season so hopefully our conditioning staff can do the same for Good if we went for him.

Shame, but can't blame him if he goes. Unfortunately, as long as we have a stupid salary cap, HAL clubs are always going to lose quality players to overseas leagues.

The young standout keeper is Mawith?

Yep, it turns out he kept his spot thankfully, but they got spanked 6-0 against top of the table Moreland City, with Makarounas opening the scoring. Who knows what will happen.

Another decent Aussie defender off to Korea.

Can't just one give Europe a try?

Sad to see him go, but as long as we keep Williams and he stays fit we have a CB pair, but they'll need at least one full time backup.

It's concerning to see yet another youth playep in Waring leave after not being given enough of a chance he perhaps should have had.
