Kamohelo Masita damages knee ligaments — 107 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 107 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.

Only the photograph left for Alby Kelly-Heald

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Alby Kelly-Heald will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Western Sydney Wanderers the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Sean Gordon stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Sean Gordon and Western Sydney Wanderers agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Words at Western Sydney Wanderers training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Liam Gillion is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Jai Boxall 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 Western Sydney Wanderers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The knee: Kamohelo Masita out for 114 days

114 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Western Sydney Wanderers lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Ollie Leeming asks to leave Western Sydney Wanderers

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Will Dobson 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 Western Sydney Wanderers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

A row about effort at Western Sydney Wanderers

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

Market6 May 2030

Talks stall between Western Sydney Wanderers and Matthew Grimaldi

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

The dugout6 May 2030

Sean Gordon asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Chastening afternoon for Western Sydney Wanderers

A 0‑4 beating by Sydney FC was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

Player ratings11 Feb 2030

Nobody could get near Miguel Di Pizio

Successful dribbles: 26. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Alby Kelly-Heald: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Western Sydney Wanderers have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

A falling-out at Western Sydney Wanderers

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

Transfer targets11 Feb 2030

The window shuts on the Dylan Scicluna deal

Western Sydney Wanderers ran out of time with Sydney FC. The paperwork was open when the deadline passed, and a transfer that was almost done is now a transfer that never happened.

Words at Western Sydney Wanderers training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Kane Vincent-Young is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Melbourne City tell Western Sydney Wanderers: Sebastian Esposito is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Boardroom11 Feb 2030

Nobody left the Western Sydney Wanderers dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

Talks stall between Western Sydney Wanderers and Lawrence Thomas

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Deklan Cacace is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 21 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.

Will Dobson in a row with a teammate

Kane Vincent-Young 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.

Sean Gordon steps up from the Western Sydney Wanderers academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Sean Gordon has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Mitchell Bennett steps up from the Western Sydney Wanderers academy

One of our own: Blake Davis joins the Western Sydney Wanderers first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Blake Davis is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Kamohelo Masita has improved at 24, which nobody expected

Careers are supposed to plateau and then decline, and the players who ignore that are always the ones who were listening on the training ground. 3 points of it, over months, at an age where the direction normally only goes one way.

The dugout17 Sep 2029

The manager makes an example of Tim Moore

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
