So if he’s played in Queensland state cup competition, does that mean he can’t compete in Dockerty Cup fixture ? And that by default rules him out of Australia Cup ?

If he's played for his Queensland club in Australia Cup already he's ineligible for that comp per the regulations but I think he'll still be eligible for Dockerty Cup.

On the other hand someone like spink coming in if good enough means we can rest either of painter andrews or lampard prior to a cup game can even play both of them a half each to keep them fresh with spink playing full game

Is he a good full back though? From the clip he seems more cb-ish.... and I assume more cover for Jake and Marko?
 
We wait and see them all on the park now i guess..

IMO, from first view:
1. the 'Iaponezo' looks like he can fill a much needed void.
2. Menelaou has the talent, and now NPL experience, to make the DM position his own.
3. A smart move to bring up the young keeper as personally I had no confidence in Pithoulas filling any possible absence of Javi.
4. Possible question marks on the defender but I will refarin from judgement here..

A positive is we (seem to) have a coach that prefers working with young talent and so far it is paying off, (to my surprise i must admit, as initially i was a critic of his, especially some game day choices and substitute decisions etc). The transfer choices seem to align with that concept, but again time will tell and we are still fighting to cement survival.

As for the AU championship i will assume any player signings will be primarily picked up from end of season NPL out of contract players.
