hakz7 Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Make him international and Aussie marquee. Absolute legend. Would get him on the back of a jersey if he signs. Don't see any negatives to this deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Definitely a top notch signing if we can land him! What's even better is that I've heard he's a really great person off the pitch and he treats everyone with respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's even better is that I've heard he's a really great person off the pitch and he treats everyone with respect. This season he has been good off the bench. When ever he has been in the starting X1 he has had a poor game. And he is slowing down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that but its undoubted that his best years are ahead of him. Hopefully we can sign him on a 5 year deal to reward his potential.

OG-12 Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 We can forget about our finishing problems with this guy! Archie once scored thirteen goals against American Samoa! That's right... American Samoa! That's more goals in one game than David Williams in one A-league season! On that stat alone he is good enough to warrant an Aus marquee salary and at just 36 he still has plenty of years left in him! We're Ganna win the league with Archie!

Imperial Pints Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Given he's been celebrating his derby goals directly in front of us rather than his own fans for the last 5 years this doesn't surprise me.

belaguttman Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) Archie has a good media presence, why not give him a game or two for experience as youth team coach and then appoint him as senior coach?

I think JVS with his talented approach could prolong his career with a switch to LB solving our issues there. Imagine that a LB who pops with goals every now and then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times has your 2 year-old scored 13 goals against American Samoa? Even if he had, I doubt our club would want your son as he doesn't have a long history of injuries (I hope) and isn't over the age of 33 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesla Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) Let's stop being ridiculous, he is too old to be a player for us, and he should retire TBH.However, as an ex professional player with a couple of friends at the club, he is automatically qualified to be our attacking coach and we should sign him immediately. Also, does he have a brother who we can appoint as our football director? Edited May 12, 2015 by Tesla 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take him even if he was for free and no wages.. any club that takes him if he doesn't stay where he is.. would be stupid.. The Shirt Colours might change but Archie's heart will alway bleed Victoyless.. If the club sign him they will lose 1 foundation member me.
