With Brisbane’s fickle summer weather having taken a turn for the better this week, the Brisbane Strikers look likely to take the playing field at Richlands on Wednesday night for a re-match with the Capalaba Bulldogs in the Brisbane Roar Silver Boot tournament. The match really cannot come quickly enough for the Strikers, who are [...]
The Brisbane Strikers have been informed this morning that Sunday afternoon’s friendly fixture against Olympic FC at Goodwin Park has been CANCELLED – another victim of Southeast Queensland’s continuing spell of wet weather. Coach David Large and his team now have their fingers crossed that the weather improves ahead of Wednesday night’s scheduled Brisbane Roar [...]

QSL Draw – Current 23.01.2012 The draw for the 2012 QSL season was released today and, as is seemingly always the case, it contains a mixture of pluses and minuses for the Brisbane Strikers and their supporters. The competition will again feature the nine teams who finished the 2011 season, each of whom will play [...]
Defensive drills have been the order of the night at training for the Brisbane Strikers since last Wednesday’s embarrassing 7-1 Silver Boot loss to Rochedale Rovers. Coach David Large, concerned about the porous and ponderous nature of his team’s defending in its two pre-season fixtures to date, said today that he had changed the structure [...]

The Brisbane Strikers produced their second pre-season horror show in succession tonight, capitulating 7-1 to a businesslike and probably gobsmacked Rochedale Rovers in their first match in the Silver Boot tournament at Richlands, with a performance that had coaching staff and supporters alike scratching their heads in a mixture of bewilderment and embarrassment. In a [...]
After Saturday’s ill-fated showing against Capalaba Bulldogs in their first pre-season game, a different kind of performance will be expected of the Brisbane Strikers by coach David Large in Wednesday night’s Silver Boot opener with Rochedale Rovers. Large has already gone on record to say that his team will be intent on winning every competition [...]
Junior footballers who sign on this weekend to play with the Logan City Kings Football Club could find themselves getting in on the ground floor of a major expansion of the club.

The Brisbane Strikers got their 2012 pre-season fixtures off to an inauspicious start tonight, with an experimental line-up self-destructing in a horror thirty minute period to go down 4-1 to Brisbane Premier League club Capalaba Bulldogs at Meakin Park. A Strikers starting eleven that contained more new faces than familiar ones, with only Ryan Mottin, [...]
Last Saturday’s Brisbane Strikers v Sunshine Coast Fire Round 10 fixture was Football Queensland’s featured match of the round – which provides a bonus for Brisbane Strikers supporters. Watch Jonti Richter’s left-footed thunderbolt to open the scoring, then Josh Taylor’s instinctive reaction volley to make it 2-0, and last but not least Josh McVey’s injury [...]
The Brisbane Strikers NPL Under-16s boys jumped to the top of their league table today – at least for a short time – and kept the Sunshine Coast Fire in second-last with a hard-fought 2-0 win at Meakin Park. This was a match the Strikers always looked likely to win. But they had to work [...]
