If true, they better have someone else lined up immediately. It took way too long to get Kurz in the first place, which is probably partly the cause of the poor results.

Dautovic reporting it in the Herald Sun so it's as good as confirmed to me. Made a thread.

If Troisi, who had NO intention in staying with Adelide Utd, regardless of the dribble we heard earlier in the year about being happy to be back at home, leaves overseas, AU can finally bring Dobras in, till the end of the season!! He is no worse than an unhappy Troisi.

I'm glad we get Bali as the average bogan will recognise who we're playing if they overhear a brief reference to the score on tv or radio news for our game, if there is a mention.

Shame its not home and away. Probably the one place in Asia where a bunch of vucks could travel to in short notice.

Davutovic is reporting Rojas is in so that's pretty much 100% confirmed.

Definitely not happening. Even if he's unhappy (allegedly) at the club, he's extremely settled here now.

[quote] Victory CEO Trent Jacobs also confirmed that defender Corey Brown had agreed to a mutual termination of his contract with Victory, and flagged further manoeuvring in the January transfer window to come.

“We can confirm today, due to personal reasons, Corey Brown has departed the club by way of mutual termination,” Jacobs said. “We will be looking to improve our roster through the January transfer window, albeit at the moment we haven’t made any signing and final decisions. [/quote]

does this add weight to the Troisi talk? probably not.

Thanks. Fingers crossed the medical was all good and it's just a formality from here.

Gotta get Dobras off the books first. Would be his prerogative to take the salary (which will still count towards the cap) and not play for six months, but as long as we get the visa spot free for Rojas I'm happy. There should be enough in the cap left with Brown gone.

Ola, Basha and Poulson are our three visa players for the ACL qualifiers, but we can update our list for the group stage 7 days prior to the first game of that stage, if we make it that far.

Perhaps MV fans are just a bit over this season.
The squad is simply not good enough to do well in the ACL or the A league.
Add to that the scheduling that makes it impossible for MV to succeed in either comp and it all becomes a bit ho hum.

Full  trophy cabinet (but yours looks a bit empty) !

Hearing that Victory requested the match against Sydney to be moved to the 15th of Feb but was refused. Is this true or just bullshit?

we have become apathetic. and what do you expect when you're 5 points out of the top 6 with a game in hand? I would be pissed off if we were 5 points off top spot at this point of the season, let alone the top 6. its going to be an interesting offseason to see what the club will do to reverse the slide - and I don't just mean the slide on the ladder, but the slide in members and crowd numbers. a healthy Victory is very important for this league.

A healthy MV fan base is a must for the league. Perhaps you could say the same for WSW.
SFC and MC at the top of the ladder kills the league as their fan bases are a total flop. Both should be attracting much bigger crowds and member numbers.
I understand MC fan situation as the fundamental basis for this club is floored but SFC fans have no excuse. They have let the league down.
