Pirates release Monyane and Mako
It has long been suggested that both full-back positions are arguably the biggest relative weaknesses in the Orlando Pirates squad. Incoming business is expected in those areas, but first, the Sea Robbers are getting rid of players not in their plans. Thabiso Monyane and Paseka Mako are heading out. One Bucs fan sounds happy that the club are getting rid of surplus players:
Orlando Pirates miss out on Appollis?
In their search for a prolific wide man, Chiefs have reportedly reignited their interest in Polokwane and Bafana star Oswin Appollis. The 23-year-old was in action for South Africa in a 0-0 draw against Tanzania. Appollis is also a target for Pirates.
Who should Pirates sign to replace these departed full-backs?
