Market29 Mar 2032

Tumi Bowes is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Melbourne City is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Looking ahead29 Mar 2032

Top-of-the-table clash for Melbourne City

Sydney FC next, and the two sides the division is watching meet each other. Whoever wins will be told nothing is decided in the same breath as being congratulated.

Squad29 Mar 2032

Matt Dibley-Dias 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.

Squad29 Mar 2032

Words exchanged at Melbourne City

Damien Gibson and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad29 Mar 2032

Cameron Wright signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Cameron Wright commits to Melbourne City for another 3 years.

The dugout29 Mar 2032

When it matters, Lamine Diaby Fadiga plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

The dugout29 Mar 2032

No hiding place for Ussumane Djabi

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

Looking ahead29 Mar 2032

A reunion for Alex Nassiep

He used to wear the other shirt. On Saturday he plays against Sydney FC in this one, and whatever he says this week about it being just another game will be untrue.

Market29 Mar 2032

Araphat Mohammed runs his contract down

4 months remain and no agreement is close. Every week without a signature costs Melbourne City money.

Match13 Mar 2032

Lamine Diaby Fadiga leads the rout of Western Sydney Wanderers

4‑1, and Lamine Diaby Fadiga took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Melbourne City tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Market15 Mar 2032

Only the photograph left for Nathaniel Atkinson

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Nathaniel Atkinson will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Melbourne City the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Player ratings15 Mar 2032

Vintage Gianni Stensness — 8.01

At 33 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.01, and nobody on the pitch better.

Market15 Mar 2032

Josey Casa-Grande puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Melbourne City, and it is not being withdrawn.

The dugout15 Mar 2032

Akol Akon says Melbourne City went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Match13 Mar 2032

Nobody wants to play Melbourne City right now

3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Squad15 Mar 2032

Joe Bell 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 Melbourne City this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Melbourne City supporters have found a favourite in Connor Gallagher

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 17-year-old it feels ownership of. Connor Gallagher has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Market15 Mar 2032

Grant Walsh steps up from the Melbourne City academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Grant Walsh 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.
