Elrich back into full training. WSW are interested in signing him but now so are SFC.

WSW also still have an eye on Elsey - this time with more purpose, as a replacement for Cornthwaite.

Elsey can not be allowed to leave to another A-league club.
Under no circumstances.

Full stop.

Absolutely

I would be throwing a sizable deal in front of him now, he's only going to get better.

Lets hope Ante is better at player retention than he is at signing players....

Elsey is a future Socceroo I think, at least at the Sainsbury / Wilkinson sort of level. He'd be there already if it wasn't for his horror injury run.

Also, I hope Tarek wants to stay here.

I agree. The big question mark I had of him was his discipline, he flew in with late challenges too often and picked up too many yellows.
That's not an issue for him this season. It's unlikely the club will have Gulum next season so Elsey is a MUST sign. I just hope the club identify where he's at and don't offer him a something pathetic.
He's clearly in the top 10 HAL CBs so I'd hope he's offered a contract reflecting that.

Elsey's form this season has confirmed that we were right to stand by him in his multiple recoveries. Now we need to re-sign him and reap the rewards of our patience. Clock is ticking Ante.

I'm fairly confident Elrich will sign for WSW at the conclusion of this season.

Elsey likely to leave as well.

Elrich just started up his new small business here didn’t he? I wonder if that’s enough to keep him here.

I'm not doubting that Elsey is likely to leave, but why would he?

- AU have a better record of getting young players to Europe than WSW.
- At a guess AU have got more guys in the past few years to Socceroos camps and squads than WSW.
- AU have more chance of playing ACL than WSW

Look at Malik, did his career progress at all since leaving AU ?

My understanding is Elsey is getting better offers elsewhere.

Elrich also loves Gomby and is a WS boy so will likely head home.

Gombau won't be there, the players will see to that

Marrone must be a confidence player. Super quiet off the park, timid on it.

Good defender and used to be reasonable going forward but perhaps the emergence of Strain has thrown him off a bit.

According to Simon Hill, we wanted to enter talks with Cahill (again) but his agent/management declined our offer.
