Ref abuse. Sorry should of specified No Club punishment
Gotcha.
Also, should have

I think he definitely should have been suspended by the MRP (but then again, lots of other players should have been for ref abuse as well...although this was up there with the worst). I didn't really consider a club suspension.

But for so many reasons that game he certainly showed, beyond all doubt, why he's not fit for the armband.

Has the touch of a donkey. Athletically gifted and gets into good position but no touch at all. Very poor mans Kenny Aithu. Kekeris and Murray are 10 x better. Terrible recruitment.

The giraffe version of Appiah

He cant be the new Appiah... he can score goals??

For me Simon and McGlinchey who are both contracted for next season have to be moved on somehow. For what they offer they are probably on way too much cash with McGlinchey also taking a visa spot. Maybe Simon can be moved onto minimum wage and the rest of his money come from a club captain / club ambassador type of community role with little expectation of any meaningful game time. We then need to carefully consider our visa spots. I think most here would like to see Tom and Jem stay but after that we really need a CB, #10 and a striker.

The GK spots are another quandary Gauci is here for another year on a scholarship - but the other two need to be replaced with players that can push each other for the no 1 shirt.

Also saw the Majok rumour.. pretty average signing if true
Why can’t we just promote our own youth?
Charles William is much better prospect than Majok. Only difference is Majok has been given an actual go by Wanderers
Even Manny Peters. Give our kids a bloody real go.



(Majok also keeps auto correcting to Major and that just reminds me of Travis Major. No one wants that memory)

Couldn’t agree more.

Release all 3. Munford is better and the Islander they trailed from Canberra was way better. The current 3 are all mistaken riddled flappers.
Release Nash as he has been the constant in 4 or 5 years of calamitous Goalkeeping at CCMFC.

If we release all three I would just sign 2 plus a new Gk coach. I always thought that BK was a good backup keeper. However he wasn't employed that way. We need two solid first choice keepers that can fight for the first spot.

2 is enough IF we bring in a quality coach like Galekovic then he can play in an emergency or just bring Munford up from Youth.

That no matter what Kennedy did we've had to keep playing him is an indictment on our goalkeeping department.

A terrible terrible inditement. That level of incompetence would be a sackable offence in any other world but Pikey's World.

Decent re-signing. Not unhappy about it. Mulvey killed him and he’s dug deep. With a real defensive structure and shape he’ll be a consistent LB again.

Yeah not bad option to keep the budget low allowing for some big attacking signings

With a proper back 4 he’s actually not bad and showed some attacking potential.

I hate to say it but we need someone to balance on the right back like Ryan Grant that can push forward and still get back in time. As well as a very strong centre pairing which seems unlikely.

Shabow has openly supported Israel Folau on Instagram and that should be cause to say see ya later. No room for intolerance and hate in this club or football in general.

Social media is cancer on our society. It gives every dickhead a platform to spout shit. In life of Brian days you had to find a wooden box and hit the town square but you were at risk of a stoning.
