Could well be true, he might have already signed for someone else. Still surprising since it seems we are only interested in local young talent, you'd think they could get more here than somewhere they'll be a benchwarmer. Surprised Olsen was let go too. Seemed pretty good to me.

Surprised about Parsons. Didn't have the best season, but surely he has something else lined up. 

Fuck I hate the lack of a DTS.

Parsons will be a good pickup but I wonder if Moon is making room for Eli Adams who plays in a similar role, or maybe they will try to get a foreign player instead? 

yeah disappointing to let parsons go, he had a pretty damn good return when he was fit 3 goals in the last 5 games really hitting his straps and he most likely will go and sit on the bench elsewhere (but we really need experience up front so hopefully moon is targeting that as a replacement). 

Olsen looked good in the middle of the park but was not a good defender and was absolutely woeful in the final 3rd. he would have been good in a matt mckay role where he recycled the ball and kept play moving but as a winger/wide defender he was a liability

Ruhs has left Macarthur.

Rumours are Mariners and Jets are interested. Could be a decent pickup.

According to the Roar web site, both Parsons and Olsen finished their contracts, and Wada's loan also ended. So yeah, you'd think Parsons has already lined something up as they are negotiating with others. Its also notable that Moon is singing the praises of Ivanovic in another article, so it would appear he's the main man up front from the playing group for next year.

Michael Zullo has left Sydney FC. I doubt he will end up at another AL club. Bit of a shame he has struggled to regain his fitness.

Sydney have let go of Kosta, Narsingh, Buhagiar, Amini, Van der Saag, Talbot, Mlinaric, Liam McGing, Zuvela and Nieuwenhof.

The latter two are welcome to do their rehab at SFC.

Ange confirmed he wanted him to stay and was offered contract extension but rogic wanted a new challenge. 

Hahahaha 

So you want a 29 yr old, best player we've had since the golden gen, whose coming off a league title, CL qualification, player of the yr nominee, team of the yr inclusion and goal of the season... you want him to play in a 2nd division?! Lol 

I say it all the time on here but we must be the only nation that talks our players down!


Easily, easily good enough for any league in the world. Only thing he lacked was an engine and workrate and he upped that this season. 

Would love to see him in serie a where the players are older and pace is slower and technical players like him appreciated more. A club like fiorentina or mid table team where they'd build around him would be great. Otherwise another champions league side in a slightly lesser league like an Olympiakos or Galatasaray. 

They've also given Corica a two year extension on his contract.

I can see Kosta going to WSW or WU

Buhagiar to either a CCM or Wellington, Van Der Saag to Perth and Talbot to one of the big clubs

Van der Saag was linked with us while Talbot was linked with City.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Kosta goes to India or something.

So of the 12 released, the only 3 not discovered by Corica are the long term injured Zuvela, and Zullo, and the retiree bobo.

But this obviously isn't a corica created issue... fuck he's shit. But keep him please, I beg you.

Interesting website

Tete yenghi scored in a 2-1 loss 

I know it’s Finland but he is scoring some goals Over there so early on. Long may it continue 

No ones doubting his ability, we just don't live in fantasy world where Juventus come sign a 29 year old, he's too old and the move to another league and the language barrier will be too much for him. A move to england is much easier and teams from the english divisions sign players from scotland regularly. I would personally love to see him in Spain or Italy but it will never happen.

Murnane, Savvas, Yuel, Arques, O'Doherty, Regan and Boumal release by the Jets.

Louis Fenton has retired.

Yuel should get another gig. O'Doherty maybe. I think Boumal got a bit big for his boots. 

I'm a bit scared about some of the players we're rumored to be signing. They don't really screams Papas-ball to me. 

Only 29. He's chucked a Tim Brown. 

Buhagier heading to Newy

I hate transfers like that his played at 3/5 clubs in Sydney 

Yep, talk of Buhagiar AND Sotirio - gonna give me nightmares. 

Could the Middle East or elsewhere in Asia be an option for him?? A nice wee salary bump/payday before he retires (whenever that may be)??

As someone who doesn't really know much about football in the Oil States (and elsewhere in Asia for that matter), would his style, and along with his luck of any real fitness suit him, or not really??

It's an unbelievable situation. Boggles the mind. If implemented (properly) it would go some way in making the clubs and league financially viable. The [FACT] it hasn't happened at all for the past 20 and a bit years is beyond belief. 

Yuel is off overseas. Destination unknown

Newy journo James Gardiner has apparently confirmed the signings of McGarry and Sotirio to the Jets. Wonder if the former has an Aussie passport or will count as a visa player?
