http://osaussies.com/captains-big-chance/The position of Australia’s national team captain has always been held in high regard no matter what the sport. However in recent years, we’ve seen the image of Socceroo captain, Lucas Neill become somewhat tarnished with popular opinion on social media and on football forums that he has become a money player. His move to the Middle East from Galatasaray only strengthened this belief.
It is a sad day when the integrity of any player gets questioned let alone that of our captain. At the end of the day there are a lot of factors that go into making these decisions that most of us are not privy to.
The 34 year-old is now on the verge of possibly making the most important decision in a long time especially with the World Cup just around the corner.
Who in the HAL would look at him? Obviously he would demand a large salary maybe even a marquee (which IMO is way way too much) AU don't really need another CB although our defence can look a little dodgie at times Neill isn't the answer to that.
Newcastle have quite a young defence. Otherwise Perth might take a look at him sign Van Der Brink is heading to China apparently.
