The fact that NQF went under after 2 seasons is an embarrassment to FFA. Sydney Rovers was a farce. The people connected with the approval of these 2 licenses need to sacked IMO. They have set other expansion teams back by 5 years.

For those living in Sydney, who knew of the Rovers bid, in all the time that they were in possession of a license they did nothing with it. No community involvement, no hiring of staff, no signing of players. Embarrassment on both the Rovers consortium and the FFA.

I think the FFA needs to hire someone from the MLS. Although their population is a lot more than ours, the fundamental issues that they struggle with IMO are similar to the A-League’s. I think there are lessons we can learn from the MLS.

Failed A-League expansion: Should Ben Buckley be sacked?

Thanks for the comments.

IMO, Antonis isn’t ready yet physically for a starting place. He needs to muscle up a bit I think.

Mikela is a good striker, better than Cazarine.

Not so sure if Kisel can deliver the goods now that he is well into his 30s but I could be wrong.

Petratos is the one to watch at Sydney this season. Hopefully he can build on his impressive beginnings at the tail end of last season.

On another note, I think Kofi Danning was underutilised severly since his return from knee reconstruction (although in saying so how you hold up after returning from a major surgery depends on your mental state). He has the talent to play at this level but I don’t think Lavicka knew where to play him. I think he’ll flourish at Brisbane Roar this season.
