  1. Dont know where to put this but my understanding is that if we make finals its unlikely that Maclaren & Nabbout will be able to participate due to likely national team committments if selected. The socceroos will be in a hub in Kuwait which clashes with a-league finals. Add mandatory hotel quarantine and its unlikely they can participate in finals. Can someone research this and please correct me if im wrong. I would love to be totally wrong about this scenario.

  2. So the marquees will be Nabbout & Jmac which means Florin is our number 10. We havent had a proper 10 since Fred. Someone thats a creative playmaker and scores a few goals. I really hoped we were going to spend the available marquee money on that position but looks like they havent learnt anything. Cant help but feel annoyed. Yes i know he is an upgrade on Wales.

    My source has said there will be serious funding cuts regarding club staff and inevitably the players as the club is simply losing far too much money every year. Some of the numbers being quoted that these guys are paid for incompetence is sobering. 

    So with the potential of 5 visa players outside the salary cap next year we get the news from a reliable source about funding cuts regarding players 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

    When I purchased mine last week I had to type in my membership code then it allowed me to purchase my active ticket and also gave me the option to buy 1 more active ticket.

    I purchased mine last week too but didnt have to type in my membership barcode. It gave me an option to buy multiple tickets in the melb city non active are. If you have a look now you dont need to put the barcode in for level 1 isle 15 - non active & level 1 isle 17- active.

  5. My membership came yesterday. Last week i called the club to change seats one isle down. Was told by ryan at the membership dep that when the membership card comes to dispose of it straight away and wait for the new card to come with the updated new seat & isle number. I havent disposed of the card yet and have used the barcode to purchase derby tickets. Is it possible that the card will still be active once the new membership card arrives? I am surprised that its still active and allowed me to purchase derby tickets.

    Transfer deadline today in Europe - I wonder who we will snap up as an out of contract marquee player to replace Frenchie beyond today and have a good crack at the title!

    Any inside knowledge that we are going to do this? It would be the perfect scenario but i cant see it happening 🤦‍♂️. A man can still hope tho.

    No surprises. All visa spots are filled, and both marquee spots have been locked in for months. The squad is final unless a big bid from overseas comes in and there's a scramble to replace. Players like Metcalfe, Najjarine and Najjar stepping up will be great for squad depth this year so out of form players can be given a break. 

    Galloway can play both sides of defence to cover should Jamieson go down injured, as well as Karlic at LB in the NPL squad who is very highly rated. 

    Expecting to leak a few more goals but something has to give if you're going to play on the front foot. Overall the squad looks a lot more solid and balanced this season compared to last.

    Any news on Rostyn Griffiths? Likely to stay or leave?

    What does everyone think of the squad so far?

    Are there positions that need a higher quality player or more depth?

    Or should we give the current squad a chance under Erick, and leave some space for reinforcing in Jan?

    Either sign someone to partner Brillante or use Metcalf/Genreau.  Not sold on Griffiths and not sure if he is even staying.

    Anyone know what parking is like around oakleigh?

    Decent amount of parking in the side streets close to the ground. U wont have an issue. Forecast is to rain late afternoon and evening so i doubt we will get much of a crowd.
