Marked for Marco Reid

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Market30 Nov 2026

Cameron Barbarouses hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Waitakere United can pretend not to have heard.

Squad30 Nov 2026

A falling-out at Waitakere United

Marc Castells and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad30 Nov 2026

Luke Murray is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 18 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Squad30 Nov 2026

James Lockyer signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” James Lockyer commits to Waitakere United for another 3 years.

Squad30 Nov 2026

Deklan Just falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout30 Nov 2026

No hiding place for Marco Reid

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Marco Reid, and the manager let it.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad9 Nov 2026

Ryan Boxall damages knee ligaments — 32 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 32 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match7 Nov 2026

4 matches without a win for Waitakere United

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Waitakere United are no longer polite ones.

Squad9 Nov 2026

Marc Castells in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Waitakere United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match7 Nov 2026

A bad afternoon for Waitakere United against Canterbury United

1‑3 to Canterbury United, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Match7 Nov 2026

Waitakere United are shipping goals every week

Two or more conceded in each of the last 4 matches. It is not one mistake repeating itself, which would be the easier thing to fix; it is a different one every week.

Squad9 Nov 2026

A row about effort at Waitakere United

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Deklan Just was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

No hiding place for Ryan Boxall

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Ryan Boxall, and the manager let it.

Loan watch9 Nov 2026

Liberato Barbarouses has seen enough of Team Wellington

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Waitakere United, and 3 appearances in 13 say he has earned the hearing.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

Callum Van Hattum answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 1‑3, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad26 Oct 2026

Owen Colvey stands alone

9 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Dane Lockyer signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Dane Lockyer commits to Waitakere United for another 4 years.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Owen Colvey falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match24 Oct 2026

Hawke's Bay United take the points off Waitakere United

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Ryan Boxall runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 19. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Matt Waine

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Matt Waine, and the manager let it.

Squad26 Oct 2026

A falling-out at Waitakere United

Oliver Rufer and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Callum Van Hattum: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 0‑2, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

Looking ahead26 Oct 2026

Deklan Lockyer faces his old club

WaiBOP United next, and one man in the Waitakere United dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.
