Mariners Squad - 2020-2021

[Coastalraider]

Spot on PJ, but to further that, if we don’t get things moving very quickly, we will have those 4-5 players arriving right before the season starts, and with limited training time in that first block of games due to short turn arounds, we may not actually get them to gel as a team in that 9 game period either. We need them here ASAP to get any effect from them in the early, busy period of the year.

Hopefully they're South Americans or Africans coming from summer rather than Europeans coming from Winter ??

With less than a month to go to the season starting as PJ and others have posted sooner rather than latter sighting captain obvious.... re new players...

Lets home we see some signing soon....

"the aim is for two of these to be foreign players for the front of the field"
So unless we're playing a high backline I don't think one will be CB.

SPANISH FORWARD RUMOURED TO HAVE SIGNED

 

[RED DOG]

He looks a big strong lad, interested to know if he has some pace because he does I’d take a gamble
Another trialist was Jayden casella, anyone have info?

PLAYED FOR WANDERERS YOUTH TEAM AND NPL TEAM VERY GOOD

Tasuku Sekiya arrives tomorrow from Queensland and is likely to play in the game against Phoenix on the weekend.

If we have signed Nahuel Bonanda or Jaden Casella then that is seriously underwhelming. We have let both our Youth team Golden Boots go (1st Grade and Under 20s) and our only senior striker (Matt Simon) picked up a minor injury in the last game.

I seriously hope Staj has a couple of rabbits to pull out of his hat sometime in the next 30 days.

The way the club is talking about bringing in 2 players doesn’t sound like they are referring to those players. But I can see them taking a punt on some visa NPL players with a couple of spots and don’t mind that idea. Only issue is it doesn’t give us that CB we’ve been after but if the money isn’t there what can you do?

Sekiya looks very comfortable out wide. I’m 100% ok with rolling the dice in a quality NPL player if he is a good winger, I’m sick of playing people out of position out wide. It seems to be the spot we stick developing strikers or 10s that are shit.

Hello, if Sekiya is truly confirmed, then that is fantastic news. That gentleman (& football magician), deserved his shot at the A-League, long ago, since his heroics at APIA Tigers. Certainly a worthy addition to CCM.

Lets hope so Bruv.........we have had alot of NPL players who have wasted a squad spot. Lets hope this fella is a step up.

With foreign NPL players the main barrier is the visa limits in the league. They have to be twice or three times as good as the average NPL graduate because they’re being compared to the leagues other imports rather than average players. If we can get a couple for the right money it might be some smart business for the club.

I believe Sekiya is only here on trial - he hasn't been confirmed yet.
