Saturday, 13 May 2017

Brisbane Roar coach John Aloisi has signed a new three-year deal with the three-time Hyundai A-League Champions, the club confirmed on Saturday night.

Roar Managing Director Mark Kingsman made the announcement at the club’s annual awards.

Meanwhile, left back Corey Brown capped off an excellent 2016/17 season by winning the Gary Wilkins Medal for the Roar’s Hyundai A-League Player of the Season.

Brown joins an illustrious list of winners including current Club Captain Matt McKay and departing German marquee Thomas Broich.

Brisbane’s fullback is the first defender to take home the Gary Wilkins Medal since teammate Luke DeVere won the award in the Hyundai A-League 2009/10 season.

Roar Head Coach John Aloisi congratulated Brown on an outstanding season for the Club.

“Well done to Corey who had a fantastic season. We are proud of his development as a footballer and a leader amongst our group,” Aloisi said.

Broich

Triple Championship-winning import Thomas Broich is the first inductee into the BRFC Hall of Fame after making 203 appearances for Brisbane across all competitions over seven (7) seasons.

Aloisi praised Broich’s contribution to football not only in Brisbane, but Australia and believed the German maestro is the perfect choice as Roar’s inaugural Hall of Fame inductee.

“Thomas is a club legend, a wonderful footballer who has helped build a successful culture within our Club,” Aloisi added.

“Words cannot describe the influence he has had on all of us.

“I’d like to personally congratulate Thomas on becoming the first player to be inducted into the BRFC Hall of Fame.”

Brisbane Roar striker reveals John Aloisi’s penalty advice

Roar v Wanderers EF highlights

Dynamic Brisbane Roar forward Brandon Borrello has revealed the advice given by coach John Aloisi ahead of his penalty in Friday night’s Elimination Final shootout win over Western Sydney.

Borrello scored first from the spot after a goalless 30 minutes of extra time left the Elimination Final locked at 1-1.

 

The 21-year-old showed few nerves in putting the hosts ahead following a tip from the scorer of Australia’s most famous penalty.

“There was talk about who wanted to go first and I just put my hand up,” Borrello told Fox Sports.

“The boss said ‘be confident, pick a spot and the ball will go in the net regardless’.”

Borrello played a key part in Brisbane’s second half recovery at Suncorp Stadium, helping pin Wanderers back after the visitors dominated the opening 45 minutes.

The explosive young attacker was also involved in the equaliser as Roar made it 10 Finals Series matches at Suncorp Stadium without defeat.

Roar players celebrate Jamie Young's decisive save in the penalty shootout.

“It’s our fortress. They’re not going to get on top of us for any part of the game,” he said.

“We kept on battling away, chipping away [and] we could have put the game away to be fair.

“But it went to penalties and we won.”

Brisbane Roar coach John Aloisi says he wants to build the Hyundai A-League club into something great, adding any off-field distractions won’t derail his focus on the team.

In a statement released today on the club’s official site, the former Socceroo hero said he was committed to the club.

He added his coaching team and players are focused on their goal of making the Queensland club a powerhouse again.

“I am committed to the Brisbane Roar and the project of making this club bigger and better,” Aloisi said on Tuesday.

“The same goes for [football operations manager] Craig Moore and our staff.

“The ownership uncertainty has been a constant throughout my time in Brisbane, but we are a resilient group.

“We went within a game of the Grand Final, despite the distractions. Of course, we want stability and long-term certainty, but that’s a matter for others.

“I want the Roar family to rally behind the club. That’s what is important today. I want the members, sponsors and the Brisbane football community to help us build the Roar into something great.”

Brisbane Roar kick off their Westfield FFA Cup Round of 32 campaign at home to Perth Glory next week.
