Boardroom23 Oct 2028
A new deal for Mark Reynolds
The board have signed the man in the dugout to a longer contract, which says more than any statement of support. Stability is easy to promise and costly to keep.

Takahiro Sekine 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 Sydney FC this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

As if he never left: Blake Duncan returns
Some transfers need a press campaign. This one needed a shirt with the old number on it. Blake Duncan is a Sydney FC player again, and the town has its story of the summer.

Craig Henderson is a Sydney FC player again
He left as a boy and has come back still knowing where the away end is. Most signings have to be explained to a town; this one needed a photograph and nothing else.

Anthony Morrison comes home
The shirt still fits. Anthony Morrison is back at Sydney FC, and half the ground remembers him in these colours already. Some signings need selling to the town; this one sold itself.

Blake Dixon comes home
The shirt still fits. Blake Dixon is back at Sydney FC, and half the ground remembers him in these colours already. Some signings need selling to the town; this one sold itself.

Sydney FC get the job done against Wellington Phoenix
A 3‑1 win over Wellington Phoenix, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Christian Theoharous in the eights
A performance of 8.97 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

A performance of 8.85 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.
