The dugout

Carlo Armiento frozen out at Brisbane Roar

This is not rotation. Carlo Armiento has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Brisbane Roar is pretending otherwise.

Squad

Giorgos Vrakas wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Brisbane Roar know it.

Squad

Words exchanged at Brisbane Roar

Sam Sutton and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match

Brisbane Roar end the wait against Melbourne City

It had gone 6 games. The players did not celebrate like men who had won a match; they celebrated like men who had been let out of something.

Match

Brisbane Roar get the job done against Melbourne City

A 1‑0 win over Melbourne City, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings

Jing Reec takes the honours

Marked 7.94 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Brisbane Roar had the best player on the pitch.

Squad

A row about effort at Brisbane Roar

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

Squad

Patrick Moore signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Patrick Moore commits to Brisbane Roar for another 3 years.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Keanu Gallagher, on a 1‑0 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.

In brief

  • The dugout The team sheet said everything about Oscar Fryer
  • The dugout Sebit Ngor gets picked when it counts
  • Player ratings Sebit Ngor could have had three

From our football correspondent Upbeat

The dugout

Dimitris Valkanis: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Brisbane Roar have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Giorgos Vrakas wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Brisbane Roar can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Boardroom

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Brisbane Roar

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Squad

Sebit Ngor in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Brisbane Roar this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Milorad Stajić sends Brisbane Roar past Macarthur FC

It finished 2‑0, and it was Milorad Stajić’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Brisbane Roar.

One of our own: Patrick Moore joins the Brisbane Roar first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Patrick Moore is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

Brisbane Roar promote Adrian Thomas from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Adrian Thomas has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.
