ChiefHOST
Of course, they're defending A-League champions.
ChiefHOST
In last season, they had the, the equal best defensive record across the league, no surprise in a Steve Corica-coached side, just 29 goals conceded.
ChiefHOST
Uh, they're also third in goals scored last season, so they were able to do it at both ends of the pitch.
ChiefHOST
Um, I suppose the big question for this season, can they defend their championship? Steve Corica, who has been there for the past two seasons, he's left and replaced by Pedro Moreira.
ChiefHOST
They've lost some key players though, Mopper, and their two center backs, I mean, Dean Hall and Jake Gilbert-Ryke.
ChiefHOST
Plenty of attacking weapons, Jesse Randall, Giannou Mai.
ChiefHOST
So yeah, I would expect them to leak a fair few more goals.
ChiefHOST
Obviously, with De Breese and, uh, Rocky Sakai on either side, still a lot of experience there, but, um, it's how they're gonna gel together.
Kurt McDonaldCORRESPONDENT
My question is, as I said, can they back it up? I believe that they can, and they'll certainly take some beating this year.
Scott OwenHOST
New coach, of course, in Auckland as well with Steve Corica moving on as well.
Scott OwenHOST
Adam, what's going on with the Central Coast?
Adam PainceHOST
Central Coast, new coach John Hutchison in there, so a bit of change.
Nick BeckerGUEST
And, um, you know, we're gonna certainly go into this season with exactly the same mentality.
Kyle MillsHOST
Nick, look, I'm sure you're keen to get stuck into it, uh, and get this first game in your back pocket, but how disrupting was it for you for Steve Corica and Danny Hay to depart the ship?
Nick BeckerGUEST
Oh, do you know what? The, uh, change is always disrupting.
Nick BeckerGUEST
You, you'll know that well, Millsy.
Nick BeckerGUEST
Yeah
Kyle MillsHOST
... with him going, "Look, it's actually going all right, this team culture and what we're doing.
Kyle MillsHOST
We've got a, a few trophies in the cabinet, uh, under Steve Corica." Or is it more of a, "Here you go, Pedro.
Kyle MillsHOST
Free license.
Nick BeckerGUEST
And, you know, we're going to certainly go into the season with exactly the same mentality.
Kyle MillsHOST
Nick, look, I'm sure you're keen to get stuck into it and get this first game in your back pocket, but how disrupting was it for you for Steve Corica and Danny Hayter to depart the ship?
Nick BeckerGUEST
Do you know what? Change is always disrupting.
Nick BeckerGUEST
You know that well, Millsy.
Daniel McHardyHOST
Right
Riccardo BallHOST
... that is quite a transition from, you know, the very-- a little more direct and, and more physical attributes that Steve Corica's Auckland FC had.
Daniel McHardyHOST
It's music to my ears.
Riccardo BallHOST
Exactly.
Mark StaffordHOST
But in this case, I want to look back.
Mark StaffordHOST
And Steve Corica, in hindsight, was the perfect head coach to get a club up and running.
Mark StaffordHOST
They deserve to hang a singlet in the rafters if there was such a thing in soccer football.
Jacob SpoonleyGUEST
Well, in soccer football, I don't think we've ever seen Steve Corica in a singlet.
Jacob SpoonleyGUEST
So we might need to come up with something a bit more appropriate, perhaps a cashmere jumper or a suit jacket.
Jacob SpoonleyGUEST
That's more keeping with the Corica aesthetic, the sartorial approach.
Jacob SpoonleyGUEST
But it was much more bloody mindedness, wasn't it? It was a singular focus on winning and winning really quickly in Auckland.
Jacob SpoonleyGUEST
And that's what Steve Corica did.
Jacob SpoonleyGUEST
And perhaps after the first two seasons, winning the minor premiership and then going all the way last year, this is the sort of energy, the pivot that Auckland need in order to invigorate themselves and also bring to life football in Auckland for a third season.
Mark StaffordHOST
In sport, you've always got to look forward, but in this case I want to look back, and Steve Corica in hindsight was the perfect head coach to get a club up and running.
Mark StaffordHOST
Um, he'll, he'll...
Mark StaffordHOST
They deserve to hang a singlet in the rafters if there was such a thing in soccer football.
Jacob SpoonleyGUEST
Uh, well, in soccer football, I don't think we've ever seen Steve Corica in a singlet.
Mark StaffordHOST
[laughs]
Jacob SpoonleyGUEST
So we might need to come up with something a bit more appropriate.
Jacob SpoonleyGUEST
That's more keeping with the, uh, Corica aesthetic, the sartorial approach.
Mark StaffordHOST
... j- I'll, I'll give you an example.
Mark StaffordHOST
Auckland FC last year, their head of comms or their CEO or someone rung this station last year and said, "Hey, would you guys like Steve Corica on your breakfast show every Monday morning?" They came to us and asked for-
Adam PeacockGUEST
Yeah
