It says a lot about the footballing qualities of Nick Robinson that he can play virtually anywhere in the outfield setup of the Brisbane Strikers. Tall, strong, athletic and with good technique and vision, Robinson is a versatile player who can command a place in the team in defence, midfield or attack. And yet, the [...]

The Brisbane Strikers regrettably have to announce the postponement of another football match as this year’s seemingly endless wet season continues to wreak havoc with fixtures. This afternoon’s scheduled Queensland State Youth League match between the Logan Strikers and Sunshine Coast Fire at Meakin Park has become the latest victim, with this weekend’s rain rendering [...]

It was to the Brisbane Strikers’ great detriment last year that injuries limited Josh Searle to just nine appearances. Having broken into the team in an unfamiliar role at right back after transferring from the North Queensland Razorbacks, Searle quickly proved himself to be one of the team’s most dangerous attacking weapons because of his [...]
The Brisbane Strikers wish to inform supporters that tonight’s games against Bundaberg Spirit at Bundaberg have been POSTPONED. The Strikers received word from Bundaberg Spirit officials ten minutes ago that heavy overnight rain in Bundaberg had left the Across The Waves Sportsground, the intended venue for tonight’s games, waterlogged and that all other sporting fixtures [...]
A sudden re-appearance of the curse of training ground injuries has depleted the Brisbane Strikers of their defensive stocks ahead of this Saturday’s Round 7 QSL fixture against Bundaberg Spirit in Bundaberg. As the Strikers prepare to undertake their first arduous road trip of the season, the loss of four players who can play in [...]
The Logan Strikers climbed to top position on the State Youth League Southern Division ladder when they edged out the QAS 2-1 in an evenly-fought game at Meakin Park today. All the goals were scored in the second half, with two “super subs” doing the damage for Logan. Luke Weightman opened the scoring for them, [...]
Having last played for the Brisbane Strikers in their championship-winning 2009 season, when he played primarily as left fullback, John Costello has returned to them this year as the competition’s reigning Most Valuable Player (a distinction he earned last year with Gold Coast Stars), as a centre-half, and as captain. Strikers coach David Large is [...]

As we head into Round 11 of the first National Premier Leagues season in Queensland (that is, its half way point) the league table for the senior men’s completion sees the Brisbane Strikers having climbed from fourth position to third, on 21 points, after last Saturday’s 3-0 win over Sunshine Coast Fire halted their losing [...]
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 [...]
