Squad6 Nov 2028

A falling-out at Auckland FC

Callan Elliot and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings6 Nov 2028

Nobody could get near Logan Rogerson

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match4 Nov 2028

The drought breaks for Auckland FC

6 without a win is the sort of run that changes how a town talks about its club, and Wellington Phoenix were the afternoon it stopped. Nothing is fixed by one result and everything feels different by one.

Match4 Nov 2028

Auckland FC find a way past Wellington Phoenix

Wellington Phoenix made Auckland FC work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Player ratings6 Nov 2028

One of those days for Guillermo May

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.54, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad6 Nov 2028

Auckland FC count the cost of losing Ethan Wright

28 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Player ratings6 Nov 2028

Ninety minutes of Jesse Randall at his very best

Marked 8.05. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Auckland FC.

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.” Bryce McKay, on a 2‑1 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.

Logan Rogerson gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Logan Rogerson is on it.

Match21 Oct 2028

5 matches without a win for Auckland FC

The run now stands at 5, and the questions being asked around Auckland FC are no longer polite ones.

Tyrick Bodak says Auckland 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.

Squad23 Oct 2028

Words exchanged at Auckland FC

Hiroki Sakai 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.

Squad23 Oct 2028

A muscle injury sidelines Francis De Vries for 14 days

Nobody makes a documentary about a hamstring and everybody in the game fears one. Auckland FC will be careful with the return date, because the second one is always worse than the first.

Boardroom23 Oct 2028

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Auckland FC

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.

Match21 Oct 2028

Perth Glory take the points off Auckland FC

Beaten 1‑3, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Brandon Walker steps up from the Auckland FC academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Brandon Walker has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Auckland FC promote Patrick Lewis from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Patrick Lewis 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.

One of our own: James MacDonald joins the Auckland FC first team

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