 I was here for two weeks training with the team and I thoroughly enjoyed the time here and I got a bit of a taste of it and I was keen to come back and obviously when the opportunity arose I didn't think twice. I've heard unbelievable things obviously. Almost 16,000 members, it's pretty special for a team that's only been in the league a year so I'm really looking forward to playing in front of such great supporters and obviously played the same position as I do and I can already see how, especially the boys at the back, what they've been saying and how they've improved and I'm really looking forward to playing under him. As a coach, what he's achieved in his first year in the league was an unbelievable achievement. He's got a lot of experience playing overseas, coaching overseas so I'm really happy to play under him. After their success they had last season, I hope I can help them achieve the same success this year and the fact that they have qualified for the ACL also is added incentive and I'm just looking forward to hopefully helping them in both the winning in Australia and in Asia. Any top team that you go to, champions, you're going to be fighting for a position and a competitive squad is what you want, players fighting for those spots so I think it's only going to be a good thing for the Wanderers. I spent three years in Japan playing at a big club in Udoa Reds and I took a lot of good memories and great experiences from there and I think I know what to expect when playing in Asia, the conditions, the football and obviously the players as well and the nine months out from a World Cup, I know how tough the A-League is and there's no question about it, there's quality players in this league and obviously in the ACL as well so I know if I'm good enough to perform here then I'll be ready to come to the World Cup.
