[edit] Crowd comparisons

Should we indicate how many home matches were played by each Brisbane team? For example, I’m sure the Queensland Reds didn’t play as many home games as Queensland Roar. --Executive.koala 11:59, 5 March 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Away kit

Anyone know the colours of the away kit? I just had a stab at it, not sure if it's right. --Jimar 13:30, 29 July 2005 (UTC)

I think all A-league away strips are white shirts. Not sure about the shorts. AlbinoMonkey (Talk) 09:17, 13 August 2005 (UTC)


They are generally white but having seen a couple of them they all have a little colour in them. I think there may be two away designs shared by the club (4 & 4 is the split). They are in the shops now . --Tancred 00:01, August 14, 2005 (UTC)

Guys, we have them in blue at the moment, but I'm pretty sure they were in white at the weekend. Luther Blissett 05:45, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

All A-League teams away strip are white. The only thing that differentiates them are the club colours on the neck and arms of the shirt.

[edit] Player positions

Stuart McLaren's position needs to be confirmed. Because he is Josh McCloughlan's replacement he may be a Center Back or Left Back. 144.140.31.5

Stu Mclaren's position is central back. Although he is about to leave the club due to work commitments very shortly.

Isn't Jordan Simpson a forward? I've only ever seen him play up front. 144.140.31.5 06:27, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

He was played up front, but his position is defensive midfielder. Another who will probably leave the club shortly.

[edit] Reinaldo Elias da Costa

Reinaldo Elias da Costa never played for Corinthians. Actually, he played for another team called Corinthians: Corinthians Alagoano, a club from Alagoas state. Read this link. The link has a brief biography of the player before his move to Queensland. It is Portuguese, unfortunately. I fixed the article. Regards, Carioca 20:30, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Restructuring

[edit] Restructuring

Hi all. I've restructured this article, according to the guidelines at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football. Please help expand the sections that are empty or lacking in content. Also, please discuss the proposal to merge the article on former players into the 'Noted players' section. Normally, this would only include players who have had a significant impact (e.g. played over 100 games), but with only one season under their belt, most/all former players can be included.

[edit] Club History

Does anyone have any details on the club's history pre-A-League, i.e. original formation, pre-NSL, NSL, Brisbane Premier League etc.? Football in this country did not magically appear with the creation of the A-League, so it would be nice to have some information from the "prehistoric times", before football was cool.
