Nate Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Unpopular opinion but I honestly believe Aloisi will take Brisbane to a top 6 finish next season, if not by dumb luck then by the sheer talent they've got in their squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shahanga Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 I don't know Nate, plenty of off field drama right now. You might have lots of talent to do a good job there at Bunnings, but if they stopped paying you on time how motivated would you be? Add on to that a dill for a boss...... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add on to that a dill for a boss......Love the cheeky Bunnings reference and I agree, but the FFA won't allow for the players not to be paid.I just can't see them performing badly given they've got what I'd consider to be the best midfield trio in the league (Broich, McKay and Brattan) feeding the likes of Henrique, Borrello and Maclaren, plus they've got very capable centre backs.But if there's anyone who could screw it up, it's John Aloisi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of have the same feeling. I'm not sure if its because I genuinely think he will do better in Brisbane or I am just terrified of it happening, leaving us looking like complete fuckwits and confirming that our club is actually cursed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n i k o Posted July 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Liverpools second goal was a deflection which was pretty unlucky for Brisbane. Could have been 1-1 if it hadn't deflected. If you take out the deflected goal it would have ended up 1-1 so it's really a draw if it wasn't for a bit of bad luck. Good result by Brisbane to draw against an EPL team.

jw1739 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I'd caution those saying that Brisbane will be poor under Aloisi. IMO he has a better squad there than he had at Heart, and although we've made some good signings so far this off-season we still have six places to fill and still have significant deadwood under contract. I'm waiting until the full squad is in before I call us top four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jovan Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Pretty confident on Aloisi's ability and the end result. Won't see out his contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiro Kompiro Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Seriously, I saw some of Aloisi's touches on Brisbane tonight. Mainly the lofted, long diagonal ball to the wings...that sailed over the touch line.Fortunately for them, he hasn't had enough time to coach out of them the one touch passing, the movement off the ball, the passing on the deck. Give him time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still this is pretty bad news for the league as a whole. wrapping up brisbane's operations doesn't mean their won't be a club in Brisbane next season. It's actually the cheapest way for the FFA/new owners to take over. You fold Barkie-Roar LTD and all the clubs debts dissappear (along with the non-existent assets) and the FFA take the IP and start FFA-Roar LTD and offer all the players/staff new but identical contracts. Exactly like what just happened at Newcastle.It's one of the few perks of the current franchise model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
