Sorry if this is doubling things up, or pointing out the bleeding obvious to some of you, but I've been a bit out of the loop and wanna make sure I'm fully up to speed on the squad and situation of some players. Or perhaps it could help newbies or part timers get up to speed...
Please correct me if I'm wrong, or if anything needs adding.
Players out
Michael Beauchamp - To Nürnberg
Dean Heffernan - To Nürnberg
Leo Carle - released
Russell Woodruffe - released
Ian Ferguson - retired
Dez Giraldi - to Adelaide...was he ever actually officially on our books?
Players in (or re-signed to longer contracts)
Jamie McMaster - signed to a long-term deal
Brad Porter - signed to a long-term deal
Vuko Tomasevic - new signing from Marconi
20 man squad
Nigel Boogaard
Damien Brown
Andrew Clark
Andre Gumprecht
John Hutchinson
Adam Kwasnik
Jamie McMaster
Nick Mrdja
Paul O'Grady
Matthew Osman
Wayne O'Sullivan
Stewart Petrie
Tom Pondeljak
Bradley Porter
Noel Spencer
Vuko Tomasevic
Alex Wilkinson
Danny Vukovic (gk)
Matthew Trott (gk)
John Crawley (gk)
Once again, no marquee.
A few assumptions/questions;
- Vuko Tomesevic is pretty much the only 'new' signing. He's a left footer, who is, from what I've heard, a tough tackler, very skillfull and comfy on the ball and has been mostly playing in central midfield recently for Marconi...but is obviously there to fill a void left by Heffernan, yeah? Will likely play a left half, left back or left wingback role?
- Trott has been signed on a short term deal to be #2 to Danny, and it's hoped Crawley can come back into the fold in the latter parts of the season, after a recent hip operation, yeah? So we're essentially down a player to give Crawley a (deserved) chance to recover.
- McKinna will be looking for O'Grady to step up and fill Meggsi's shoes?
- Mrdja's knee is still perhaps a little dodgy, but whilst he won't play a part in the pre-season cup, it's hoped he will be fit for the HAL?
- What ended up happening with Meggsi and Sonic re Nuremberg? Are both a done signed deal and what type of deal did the Mariners get, if anyone knows? On loan? Short term contract with an option to buy?
- Players who have some degree of injury concerns at present: Pondeljak (groin) Crawley (hip) Sully (?) Spenny (?) Mrdja
- Is Hutch fully recovered?
- Petrie and Kwassie can't stop scoring goals in pre-season trial games, particularly Kwassie?
- What formations has Lawrie been playing in the trials thus far. Any hint of a more regular 3-5-2 on the horizon?
Any corrections or info anyone could add, much appreciated.
