Bernie to the jets ,whose his manager Reg Dwight ?

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Heard he was offered more by Glory but wanted to get back with Lawrie.

I would believe that, he is a bit fragile mentally and likes people he knows around him. Popa would be too full on for him. He was very close to Arnie as well and is probably why his OS attempts have not been all that successful. This is twice he has returned toOz an injured player, will probably take a while to get him back on track and as much as I like the bloke we don’t have the time at the moment to nurse him back for him then to leave for his next pay check.

In addition perth are pretty strong up front, he wouldn’t want to be coming off the bench.

The jets could slot him straight in.

so could we if we had some ambition.

Lawrie and the coach who he spent time with at Vancouver

It would be that. He’ll be looking to get some games right away to prove fitness and look for a move in the off season. Not saying he won’t stay if the offer is right but the jets will offer more chance to maximise his negotiating position in the off season. At Perth he’ll be rotation and competing with a bunch of match for decent players all looking for minutes.

We could have gone for him but I think the better long term answer is giving Harold more minutes some at 9 some at RW with a view to play him there next season.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Harold is a winger, as is Bernie. Both score goals but neither are strikers.

Jets spent money and are going to deservedly avoid the spoon. I'm not even mad, we have a chain of command that does not bat an eyelid at getting a 3rd consecutive spoon.

They have a pretty good attack. Way better than ours

 

[Wombat]

How are they able to sign 2 players after the transfer deadline??

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Free agents.

 

[Wombat]

Free agents.

So what?

 

[Ancient Mariner]

They were not transfers.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Players out of contract can be acquired at any time. Players that are in contract to another club require a transfer or purchase of the existing contract. The rules allow this to occur out of season or in a designated window.

 

[AuzDutchy]

arent there (or there used to be) registration windows/deadlines that players need to be registered before?

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Can clubs register a player outside the Registration Period?
Yes, certain opportunities exist for clubs to add new players to their rosters outside the designated windows.

The most straightforward option is if the player is a free agent – and last registered as a professional footballer – prior to the conclusion of the registration period.

Alternatively, a player can be registered if FFA is satisfied that 'exceptional circumstances' exist, for example if an individual has terminated their contract at another club with just cause.

If a player is signing from overseas under 'exceptional circumstances', FFA requires approval from the sport's international governing body FIFA.
