Brockie bound for Sydney
Friday, 17 March, 2006 - 1:30PM
Inaugural Hyundai A-League champion Sydney FC has secured the services of New Zealand Knights striker Jeremy Brockie for the next two seasons.
Brockie, 18, scored four goals in nine starting appearances for the Knights and joins fellow rising stars Alex Brosque and Ruben Zadkovich as off-season recruits for the premier.
Under Pierre Littbarski, Sydney, the competition's glamour club, has during the inaugural season of the Hyundai A-League been home to former Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke and Japanese star Kazuyoshi Miura.
While Miura was a temporary recruit, Yorke played a starring role in the grand final, setting up the match-winning goal and was adjudged the best-on-ground in the victory.

So Brockie and Brosque coming to Sydney. With Tolgay Ozbey coming through now, this gives us a strong-looking attack which is ALSO young.
Zdrillic can go get stuffed, as can Petrovski. Yorke hopefully sticks around, slotting in behind the strikers and feeding them quality ball.
Sydney FC look hard to stop for a second straight Premiership
