He likes to get involved in the game, runs a lot, chases/harasses defences and has put away a few decent goals so far. If he has a good, consistent year at South then no doubt HAL clubs will have to take notice. Better than wasting money on o/s crap like Ricardihno etc. There's heaps of talent in the VPL and best of all it's cheap and easy.
Also the 2 young players we picked up from MH Taseski and Ibrahim look pretty good as well. Ibrahim especially made some really good runs and took the piss out of the Springvale defence a few times.
Someone told me in friday night that Springvale White Eagles own their complex outright in Keysborough and is worth around $6 million:shock:. Can anyone confirm this? Pitch out there was magnificent, makes such a difference to teams like South who go out and try to play decent football.
Yes they do own it but im not sure how much its worth.
The land is over 70,000m². It comprises of a the main pitch with a stand (i don't know the capacity), another 3 full size pitches and a few smaller pitches which can be used for junior games or warm up area and the toilet/change room/canteen block.
It also has the reception at the front (1500m²?) which had an indoor soccer court which was removed and the reception was then extended (correct me if im wrong).
