THE Central Coast Mariners have begun a mass cleanout of personnel, culling seven first team players and two staff after a season which saw them finish with the A-League wooden spoon.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the club confirmed that Liam Rose, Storm Roux, Jacob Poscoliero, Josh Bingham, Blake Powell, Peter Skapetis and Tom Glover will all conclude their time on the Coast.

While strength and conditioning coach Balder Berckmans and Acadmey Technical Director/Youth League head coach Wayne O’Sullivan will also leave the club.

Poscoliero, Skapetis, Bingham and Rose all saw their contracts expire as the Mariners’ season ended with an embarrassing 8-2 loss to rivals the Newcastle Jets over the weekend - and their deals won’t be renewed.

Roux has been granted a release to purse other opportunities, while Glover - who was on loan from Tottenham Hotspur will return to the Premier League side after his deal was not extended.

The Mariners now have just 14 first team players contracted looking forward to the 2018-19 season, as new manager Mike Mulvey takes the reins.

Contracted Mariners players for 2018-19:

1.Ben KENNEDY, 4.Jake McGING, 5.Antony GOLEC, 6.Tom HIARIEJ, 7.Andrew HOOLE, 10.Danny De SILVA, 11.Connor PAIN, 12.Trent BUHAGIAR, 14.Adam BERRY, 15.Alan BARO (c), 20.Adam PEARCE, 21.Kye ROWLES, 22.Jacob MELLING, 23.Wout BRAMA
