    I believe they are maxed at 4 short term loans per player. So this is Antonoglou's last one before he needs to be signed to a first-team deal. It's Franklin's third. Rothrock and Yeates on their first

    Yes Themi has reached the max of four in season. With the roster space TFC has would not be surprised to see him signed to a home grown first team deal. Also in regards to short term deals you can only play a max of 2 MLS games under them.

    As per the MLS website

    Affiliate Short-Term Agreements


    A club may sign a player, age 25 or younger during the league season, from its affiliate (MLS NEXT Pro / USL) to a maximum of four Short-Term Agreements (up to four-day contracts) each season (maximum of 16 days).

    An individual player may be included on up to four MLS league season match rosters each season, however, that player may appear in no more than two MLS league season matches. An individual player may appear in any number of non-league games during the terms of his four Short-Term Agreements.

    A club may roster up to four players on Short-Term Agreements per MLS league season match, so long as they are Homegrown Players or Players earning less than or equal to the MLS Senior Minimum Salary ($84,000) with the affiliate. This number will be reduced to one player per MLS league season match after Roster Freeze (inclusive of MLS Cup Playoffs). Additional players may also be signed to Short-Term Agreements for MLS league season games but only in cases of Extreme Hardship.

    International Player limits still apply to Short-Term Agreements, excluding callups for cases of Extreme Hardship.

    So they can only play in max 2 games. They can only appear on the bench for total of 4 games. So if they signed today (for 4 days), they could be included in the roster today and Saturday and technically only be allowed to sign 3 short term deals.

    I like seeing the building of the club. Like 2007, only better, because the veterans are ours and the youth are Canadian. I do hope Poz gets back his mobility and Priso gets fit enough to play beside MB. But watching the young players grow is fantastic. Two steps forward, one back. The more they can have a discreet role to focus on the better.

I guess if they test very often maybe they can catch it early in the infectious period, plus people being very careful with symptoms. Also I guess the team can easily pay for all the PCR tests they want. Rapid tests are so damn unreliable for vaccinated people with symptoms these days, and you can't shut a player down for at least 5 days every time he gets the sniffles.
    everyone around me has had it, including a super fit 25 year old. Everyone was knocked out - like mono - with various other symptoms. But the 25 year old recovered the best. Judging from that experience, players would need time off but if get it the same way would be ok after a week or so. As for the over 50’s - it lingered and really affected people.

    I agree. I read that article on Seattle in the CCL final from ESPNFC and how Schmetzer is crediting them competing in this and staying consistent in the league to their academy churning out young guys who can be effective in spots 12-15. He referred to it as sort of like having an extra $1M in cap space from their young guys who are cap exempt. I am looking at us this season, especially the first half, as a trial by fire to see who will be the key guys to take those spots on our roster when we restock. In the long run, it should pay off for us like it has for Seattle and I would take this any day over watching guys like Dwyer or DeLeon fill the void but offer little more than that.

    Good to see Rothrock get a look.

    Feeling like a massive underdog to Cincinnati is a tough look.

    Priso in for Oso - watching him might be the only interesting part of this match.

    totally agree. In a way, Curtis was building an expansion team - recycled coach, recycled players.

    glad for him. Hope he has finally recovered. If he is sitting beside MB could be very effective.

    Dare I say playing Michael Bradley back-to-back with a midweek game is poor judgment?

    No shame in losing to MLS powerhouse FC Cincinnati.

    I can’t watch live so I’m PVRing the game and was planning to watch tonight.
    Might just stick to looking at the box score at this rate…

    Sometimes it is just so difficult to watch. I might just turn on the biggest clutch team in the Leafs
