Happy for us to sign some players before a manager is signed.
I wouldn't be signing players that will change our style of play or anything, but generic position Australians should be looked at. The pool of available Australians isn't big enough to give every other club a month headstart, otherwise we will be left picking up the dregs. I'm not advocating a big recruiting spree, but if you wait you are unlikely to snag the better youth prospects/potential starts and are left picking through the squaddie type players.
