Renew Kwas contract

[bakery5]

put all postive things about Kwas in here ;D

[spursdad]

In his correct position on the left side of the pitch... brilliant. creates space, and has plenty of pace. Never gives up.

We will need players like him for the team to grow...

[northernspirit]

do we really need another kwassie thread?

[marinermick]

no, we don't need another thread

kwasnik will have his contract renewed next season and i have no doubt that some club will also be chasing his signature

. i'd prefer him on the right

[ryan]

Good to see a positive Kwassie thread. About time

[mariners4ever]

he is a good right winger compared to some other in the league

[Jesus]

Has to be the right, struggles a little with his left foot. But have grown to love Kwassie, and look forward to him playing for the mariners for quite some time to come

[wombat]

I'd give him a contract for sure.

Not in my starting 11 but a great Squad player who will develop over the next few years.

I think Wombat is 100% right!

I'm afraid that's an understatement that left foot shot was disgraceful on thursday certainly not A-League standard.
I'll like him as a player but not as a striker, he has pace and can cross well right hand side wing is the go.
He does give his all shame I can't say the same for some of the others.

???Well for my 2bobs worth I think he is a great trier with a lot of guts not like a few others that only seem to be there for the ride,but saying that he needs to become more skillful and not run around all over the place wearing himself out maybe there is a fault in the training methods it's no good running all over the field and achieving nothing except tiering yourself out there's to much running and not enough skills in this team a team with the proper skills doesn't need to be seen running around like a lot of chooks with their heads cut off like this team is doing at the moment more ball control needed coaches don't seem to be addressing this at all, and we need to learn to think ahead and follow through with things not stand there like statues after we have kicked the ball saying all that yes I think Adam has a lot of potential and while I'm on my soap box can't we please just use the players names that their parents christened them with I find all this school yard naming very childish sounds like we are talking about the under8's somewhere not at all professional

kwas's touch is mostly pretty good, just needs to keep his head down and place his shots rather than kicking the stuffing out of it and laying off once in a while couldn't hurt if he had someone in a top spot to go to.

but he runs and runs and runs, getting into top possies. he'd certainly still be a regular starter if i was running the show though.

other players have had some pretty poor weeks touch-wise of late, and some of the passing and crossing ( )has been lamentable at best.

too often people have bagged the crap out of kwas when the problem is that the ball's been belted miles over his head and out for a throw-in or goalkick when he's been on an incisive run through the box. can't blame him for that, but because he's the bloke people are looking at when the ball's sailing by somehow he cops it...

oh, and flossy - welcome to the boards, but please try paragraphs and the occasional full stop. and at risk of a thread-hijacking, the players and coaching staff all use nicknames, so why shouldn't we?

"Childish"?
"Unprofessional"?

211 words and the only punctuation was 2 commas (and a smiley-face)

Keep using nick-names, everyone.

Before you rubbish my post,do your self a favor and look at some of the atrocious grammar of some others posted here.Thank You.

[Ursus]

Did you take a breath while saying all that ;D.

If you are going to criticise the board for the use of "childish" nicknames be prepared to cop a bit in return.

as the forum's resident pedant, i'm often bagging people's grammar/spelling. just ask jimmy how many time's i've teed off on his use of 'would of' when 'would have' is the appropriate phrase.

my issue with your post was that it was basically one very very very long paragraph, and what's worse, it was one very very very long sentence. 208 words (i'm enough of an anally retentive bastard to have checked in MS Word) and no full stops, let alone line breaks. it's unreadable. if you did it in a year six writing task you'd get a smack in the back of the head.

express your opinion in any way you like, and say what you want (it's a forum after all), but when your posts are unreadable, don't be surprised if someone gives you a little bit of ribbing.

[Jesus]

And long paragraghs without punctuation and spacing, are hard on the eyes. So you cant be surprised if alot of people simply dont read it. Like i have not done. So you have to punctuate in order to get your message across.

[keensy]

For some reason i have a feeling he will be re-signed for 2 years

[Jesus]

Good news
