Something of a traditional thread. Apologies apologies I say winter for the Northern hemisphere players and perhaps we can anticipate the majority of transfers there. I can't think of too many. Mostly loans really. Ryan, Gauci, Peupion. We might see Luongo seek minutes.

Episode 1 from the AFC Hub. Could be a very interesting series developing.

Everything here to do with media, journalism, its demise, challenges and achievements. I feel this is separate to the great podcast thread which provides lists and is slightly more on the entertainment side of things.
