Brisbane Roar

[pseudonym]

I thought Roar chose to use "My Happiness" since Powderfinger started in Brisbane

[marron]

My god.

Farnsy is a step up then.

Yes...that sounds right! They had a survey, as I recall.

Was thinking why not that then I looked into the context, lyrics etc and went...nah.

If they want a song from a local band that shows off their current playing style, quality, why not the Saints with this classic

^^^^^ ....thought you were making a serious offering at first there!

Fowler has truly underestimated the quality of the league. And refuses to start Wenzel-Halls

Good innit - that he remembers how it was when he was here - but it's so much better now!!

Well - it's not good for the Roar.

I hate seeing them looking so poor.

Lol...no need to hate anything about rival teams.

But you're not really talking about hate I dont think, when you talk about "playful hate". 

It's banter. Banter is fun.

But sometimes, you just have to feel sorry for other teams and their supporters. They suffer...just like we did over the past 3 seasons.

Yes and don’t you think they are suffering enough without having the indignity of John Farnham being played

According to a "survey" Brisbane Roar are the most supported A-League club in Australia what a joke.

Courier Mail eh?

"Brisbane Roar Football Club (BRFC) wishes to advise that given the current and ongoing coronavirus situation, Head Coach Robbie Fowler and his assistant Tony Grant will not be returning to the Club."

I wonder if his mates (Aldred, Gillesphey, Amadi-Holloway and O'Shea) will join him and depart the club as well. That would be a disaster if that were to happen.

Roae will be like the Broncos in NRL and absolutely tank when they return. Watch them lose every game.

[Paul01]

Apparently, all their visa players have stayed and are training.

Their remaining games are as follows

Brisbane
R24 v Melb Victory.A?
R25 v Smurfs.H?
R26 bye
R28 v Phoenix.A?
R29 v Adelaide.H?

R27 has been played already

Amadi-Holloway also left on a mutual agreement (signed to some Indian club)

Forgot to post this but Roar have signed 23 year old Jesse Daley.

The midfielder originally was a youth Brisbane Roar player before and then was signed to NPL South Melbourne and Lions FC. Afterwards, he had a stint with US 2nd tier club Talcoma Defiance (formerly known as Seattle Sounders FC 2) where he played 50 games during 3 seasons and scored 5 goals.

Redcliffe, QLD. It's the home stadium for the QRL club Redcliffe Dolphins. I think it's currently a 10,000 seated stadium and situated behind Redcliffe Dolphins Leagues Club. I've never been to the stadium but I've heard you get some good views during match day. The only downfall is if it's raining, you'll get drenched.

 

[mack]

it's basically the Gosford Stadium of Brisbane. It's 40 minutes from Suncorp Stadium and up to 60 from the more southern areas of Brisbane.
