Welcome home. Nick! 

Hope his second stint is longer and gets a run in the senior team.

Well...he did, and was superb.

[LeeMarvin]

He has got a bit of fire in the belly.  The kid is alright in my book.

Bossi Alert

A nice story by Bossi for a change. Not all good in Europe.

I recall the Fox guys interviewing him after the Victory game and when asked about his time in Europe he didn't really elaborate. I can see why now !!

[Keithie]

Sullivan should be given a contract extension and more game time in my opinion , give him the AM role I believe he will be an improvement on Muller and we can start building a team for more than one year at a time.

Left the club. I imagine he'll pop up somewhere like Macarthur or the Mariners. I don't think we made the most out of him as a player.

Strikes me as the kind of player who could have benefitted under the new coach

[MathyouWSW]

I'm shocked he left.

I feel that Robinson would of gave him motivation and further developed his skills.

Probably jp had a hand in his decision and went elsewhere before robbo, don't blame him and a sad loss

Was about to get a 1 yr extension under Babbel and then JP blocked the move. Would've killed it under Robinson. Shame really.

Hence why JP got the A. No trust in youth

[THEWANDERERSPOST]

Looks to be joining either Perth, Brisbane or Adelaide.

Joined Perth.

Been signed to Sutherland Sharks: https://mens.nplnsw.com.au/2021/08/30/signings-galore-as-sharks-hope-to-bring-back-glory-days/?fbclid=IwAR2jn6_VESmRPY5rp2PyNAsBf0rVTalBsObtY79E6W8UeBZTuDSSnIpa9HE

Still good enough to play in the A-League as a squaddie.

Richie Garcia wrongly utilised him.

Wish we got to see NS22 under Robinson in either the 6 or 8.

[Sithslayer1991]

It is a bit surprising he has ended up in NSL. I would have been sure an A-league team would have picked him up to bolster the midfield.

I disagree...he was playing pub football before he returned to Australia and only showed fleeting glimpses of A League quality football in 2 seasons. He's best to ply his trade in NPL for the time being.

Agree to disagree.

Don't think you should judge him from his time at the Glory, Garcia deployed him as a rightback and clearly didn't know what he was doing.

His performance against Sydney in the Kogarah derby will live long in my memory. Absolute masterclass and shut Ninkovic and Baumjohann out of the game.

Also played well against Victory early in that season but didn't show quite enough for us. However a great season at an NPL club could see him picked up for the A League again

everyone did in that game, it was a Mirage

[Sithslayer1991]

Probably NSL is the right move for now to get some game time. I think there is enough there to show that he deserves to be in the A-league but needs enough game time.

[MathyouWSW]

Just noticed he currently plays for Bonnyrigg White Eagles.

WTF happened. I really liked how he played and it looked like he had something to offer at A-league level.

Australia has a million combative central midfielders who can't score.

Not forgetting speedy wingers who have little idea how to control the ball or deliver a pinpoint cross

Yes although WSW still feel the need to import them
