A new Falcon was released recently. I reckon the FG Falcon looks pretty sweet, its got some real nice engines too. The XR6 Turbo now has the old F6's 270kW engine making it a bargin and the new F6 has a 310kW engine with a whopping 565Nm of torque. The V8 in the GT only makes 5kW more than the inline turbo six.

The Newcastle Jets have a very different looking squad going into the 2008-09 season. I am very impressed with some of the signings we have made and although we lost quite a few talented players I am confident we can mount a successful title defence with this squad. Hopefully we win the Minor Premiership this time around too. Here's a quick run down of our new players.

• Jason Naidovski – Young striker who came in from the AIS and shows a lot of promise
• Kaz Patafta – Very highly rated young attacking midfielder who was on the books at SL Benfica in Portugal
• Jesper Håkansson – Danish under-21 international who has played a lot of games in the Dutch Eredivisie
• Edmundo Zura – Our new marquee player, Edmundo is only 25 and is a regular in the Ecudorian national team
• Song Jin-Hyung – Not technically a new signing as he came in at the end of last year, Song is a South Korean under-23 player who has already proved his worth in last years Grand Final

And lastly and awesome band that I only just discovered - 311. They have been around for ages but as far as I know they arent really recognised in Australia. They play a sorta mix of reggae and rock. Have a listen to some full tracks at Last.fm and let me know what you think.
