Alex has updated his journal at Soccer Without Limits. Interesting stuff http://soccerwithoutlimits.com/fridaya-yank-down-under-holiday-round-up/14022/
He's about 12 months away from Australian citizenship. But yes, you're right it is hard for foreigners in the A-league with a 5-foreigner limit. That played a role
Appreciate it! He'll be an English-American-Aussie. That makes for one weird accent. Well, at least they all speak "English".

On the roster for 2015: Alex brings that much needed experience which the side requires. After stints with A League clubs Wellington Phoenix and Gold Coast United, Alex is looking to return to A League on the back of a successful year with the Heat. Alex is a quality midfielder with an eye for goal and brings his teammates into the game at any opportunity. http://www.fnqfc.com.au/about/fnq-fc-bios/2015-ps4-npl-squad-profiles.html?showall=&start=2
