Simon Hill on said on the Fox Football Podcast said something twice like Babbel about the penalty scored by Maclaren "never a pen(alty), never a pen(alty)"

And Garb agreed with him.

None of which does is any good, beath and KGJ should be dropped for next week, they won’t

Both are crap appointment from the Ben Wilson era of failed A-league referees.

The FFA has compulsory post game press conferences. The managers attend reluctantly and answer the questions honestly. The managers get fined.

If the FFA doesn't want honest answers don't insist on press conferences. And if they don't want harsh criticism fix what is being criticised, 

Babbel is cited for swearing on TV, in frustration at a question asked, as opposed to swearing directly re the penalty. The Nix player who swore directly re a penalty and VAR, during a post game interview a couple of weeks ago, wasn't cited. Or did I miss that?

He shoulda just hopped on the bus and taken off.... like the week before, eh?

[tardotz]

I reckon he should still go to the press conference as that is an agreed commitment.

Then he should only answer yes,no or maybe or he should answer with the same answer to every question regardless of the question. Eg Yes I think we did well but there is always room for improvement 😉

[Paul01]

On a different note, we face Newcastle who last season beat us 

2-0 at Spotless 

5-1 at ANZ  

3-2 at Newcastle 

Need a big turnaround both in terms of performance and goals.

Yep.  Something along the lines of this...............

Reporter: Can you give us your thoughts on the game.? 

Babbel: No.

Reporter: Why not.?

Babbel: I answered your question......next...!

This not the same squad as last year tbh but yeah we need a positive result.

Agreed. Give the ffa exactly the press conference they deserve.

Seeing there is no squad development thread open, with Nizic gone would Jesse Curran be a good addition?

From memory we have at least 2 slots available prior to him leaving. We could have fixed the depth issue but we haven’t.

To your question though, I think DM were are sort of OK at DM with Sullivan looking like a decent cover there. AM is still looking a little empty

Is it an issue of having two slots available but no more room in the cap to add more players and with Nizic out and hopefully Verdan to follow it will free some of that cap space to bring in others?

[MistahCampoy]

What do you guys think of Holman? Would the Bankstown boy help fill that midfield attacking role even as a squaddie? I didn't mind him at Brissy

He was arguably passed it at Brisbane (injuries and age caught up with him), would have to be minimum wage for any sort of value.

Would just be a waste of a signing nevertheless. He would take a month before he is close to ready to play any minutes, let alone any good minutes. There is pretty much no ready made aussies out there. 

[hawks2767]

Ummmm

[Erebus]

No to Lolman

[SBW]

haha no!

He wasn't that good 10 years ago and he wasn't that good for the Roar either

[THEWANDERERSPOST]

How about Oli Bozanic? Babbel would've coached him at Luzern if i'm not mistaken?

https://www.transfermarkt.com/oliver-bozanic/profil/spieler/43117

[Beer]

Bozanic sitting on the bench at hearts. Would take him in a heartbeat but would probably require a transfer fee.

Hearts are in all sorts, however. 

[Beer]

Duke - Meier - Yeboah 

           Muller 

    Bozanic - Shweg 

Wilma - Jurman - DM - DG 

           Lopar 

 

Bench: Vedran,  Ziggy, Elrich, Baccus, Sullivan, Kamau, Adam 

 

Fully fit, that’s a squad that should be pushing for the title.
