Cheer chaps 👍 

Hopefully we’ll see him in stripes soon.    Strange that Ryan Strains move seems to have gone a lot quicker , perhaps because he was already playing outside Oz ? 

Strain was born in Coventry

We can't hold that against him 🤣

Baccus very much still in Oz. Until his Visa clears he cant come over. 

[FTOF]

Visa has been sorted and he'll join up with rest of the players on Monday.

See also we've finally confirmed defeat in the Gogic pursuit.

Solid game today although has zero pace.

Unlike his grampa.

Baccus is flying over to Scotland today.

No spark about him at all. Reminds me of Fraser Wishart in build and play.  Hopefully once confidence rises he can assert himself more

As a regular watcher of the  A League Strain is  a decent solid enough right back. Nothing spectacular but he shouldn't let you down.

Keanu has a lot more about him.

If Reid was to go, we defo need a Gogic style player in for the midfield. I'm hoping that Baccus is either
A. Gogic like mold
Or
B. Ronan like mold

Or both combined. 

[Slarti]

Or both combined. 

Would that make him Rogic?

[Ethan]

One thing we cannot do is have him down as a saviour. He could need time to get up to speed and may not be any better than what we have.

Best debut I've seen in a while. 

Hopefully he can do the business against Premiership opposition.

Agreed I thought his touch was good and he seemed to think before making a pass to play the right one .

Definitely will appear out of place in our team then [emoji2]

Very good debut considering his lack of training and his travelling. Looks a real player. And his countryman Strain also impressed after a couple of lethargic appearances.

[RichardBuddie]

Was watching him prior to kick off, seems a real team player with bags of confidence, played well today bearing in mind he’s literally just landed in the country.

Seems to have quick speed of thought too - there was a moment in the second half when he just pulled out of going for the ball, had he done so would have been a guaranteed yellow (possibly more).

Very early days but this guy might turn into a bit of a fans favourite.

Strain is one of those ones that will take time.

He's had practically zero football in 2022 so understandable he's going to be rusty. 

Time to get off the back of guys like Strain, Ayunga and Olusanya who I've seen quite a few folk making their judgements on already. We need to give these guys a bit of time to bed into the pace and physical differen e of the game here.

Both Strain and Ayunga looked good today. Strain had his best game yet. He really looks promising. Ayunga will just get better and better

[northstbuddie]

Baccus makes up for his slight build with speed of thought/action, skill and aggression.

Looks a promising signing, albeit after just one game.

He looks like a player that teams will hate playing against.

Once League business gets underway that will be the leveller, far too early to write us off….

Quick mind, quick feet and can take men on and beat them. A real find.
