adelaide internationals

[Jocwa08]

hey,
sorry if this topic is in another area i couldnt find info on it,
just wondering how adelaide keep signing these internationals with already some in there side at the moment, they have;

cassio
svd
flores
slory
keenan
estrada
usucar

i thought you were only allowed 5 players, is cassio a citizened australian now ? and does keenan not count cos he's injury replacement

- Keenan is now out for the season (broken leg) so his injury replacement contract will not count.
- Rumours exist of Flores moving to Asia during the January window.
- Rumours also suggest that Slory's guest contract does not count to the foreign limit, but I'm not sure about that.

Still, they have a lot of work on their hands trying to fit them all in.

i heard cassio wants to play for Australia...(he got his citezenship just before this season kicked off).
So Cassio doesn't count!

Dont you have to be in the country 5 years or more to be eligble for citizenship?

This year would be his 5th meaning he wouldnt have it yet.

My bad...
It is true that he wants to play for Australia, but he won't get his citezenship for another year...
interesting that he wants to play for us...2 years ago I would have said yes. But now he seems older, losing a bit of ability, + I can't stand the guy after the last 2 games at Bluetongue.
He is a timewaster and play actor! Apart from that, he has flair, and speed. But he would be 34 by next world cup
Sorry for going offtopic!
