Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Vintage Anthony Cáceres — 7.85

At 34 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 7.85, and nobody on the pitch better.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Joe Knowles says Macarthur FC went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Match31 Oct 2026

Ryan Fraser sends Macarthur FC past Perth Glory

It finished 3‑2, and it was Ryan Fraser’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Macarthur FC.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Words at Macarthur FC training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jacob Farrell is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Cameron Cook gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

A masterclass from Ryan Fraser

Marked 8.24 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Ji Dong-Won makes the team of the month

Four or five weekends of consistency, measured against everybody else in the division. A quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Mason Johnson has his say

“We earned that. I asked them for a reaction and I got one, and now I want the same again on Saturday.” Mason Johnson on a 3‑2 afternoon that pleased him more than he was prepared to show.

Looking ahead2 Nov 2026

The leaders are next for Macarthur FC

Western Sydney Wanderers top the table and they are coming into view. Nothing to lose, which is what every manager says before losing.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Both of them Ji Dong-Won's — 8.92

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.92, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Words at Macarthur FC training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Matthew Millar is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The terraces26 Oct 2026

The crowd has taken to Bernardo Oliveira

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match24 Oct 2026

Macarthur FC find a way past Brisbane Roar

Brisbane Roar made Macarthur FC work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Mitchell Duke gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad26 Oct 2026

12 new faces, and Macarthur FC are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

The dugout26 Oct 2026

Mason Johnson: “That is the standard”

“That is what I want every week. Not the result, the way they went about it.” The manager, after 2‑0, already talking about the next one.

Boardroom26 Oct 2026

Macarthur FC say no to the training-ground money

The plan went upstairs and came back down. Nothing about that will make a headline anywhere else, and everybody who works at the training ground will remember it for years.

Squad26 Oct 2026

Ji Dong-Won finally opens his account

He wheeled away like a man who had been carrying it for months, because he had. Macarthur FC have their signing off the mark and one press-conference question retired.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Cameron Cook gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Cameron Cook has just signed for Macarthur FC, and for once the answer mattered.

Market10 Aug 2026

Macarthur FC say no — this time

The offer from Newcastle Jets for Dean Bosnjak was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

The paperwork begins on Jacob Farrell

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Macarthur FC have done the hard part with Portsmouth, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Macarthur FC

Ji Dong-Won was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad10 Aug 2026

A row about effort at Macarthur FC

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Matthew Millar was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Macarthur FC rebuffed over Steven Hall

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Brighton have kept their man, and Macarthur FC go back to a list with one name crossed off it.
