NPL NSW

Well-traveled coach John Stewart Porter acknowledged his shooting ability stating that he 'had a tremendous hot' and that 'he has very impressive physique, works very hard at all aspects of the game, and can play well anywhere up front'. Soane returned to his youth club Blacktown Spartans FC in 2014 and was one of six players from the Penrith and Blue Mountains area.

S.League
Quitting his job to play professionally in the S.League with Balestier Khalsa FC, he began a meticulous daily training routine. Aiming to play in the A-League, the Australian top division, he saw the S.League as a stepping-stone to that target, quitting Balestier a month before the expiry of his contract in June 2009 after claiming 'mistreatment' form the club.
