(Its lucky you are such a great mate Jon Lamprecht!) A historic night at Suncorp Stadium as 17,965 in attendance bear witness to the Brisbane Roar clinching their second A-League Premiers Plate in club history with a 1-0 win over Melbourne Victory. In typical Roar trophy-winning fashion, the hosts left it to the 92nd minute to take the three points, with Luke Brattan being the toast of the River City with a shot from 30-yards out to beat Victory keeper Lawrence Thomas, and send the majority of the home crowd into celebration mode. Even if Western Sydney Wanderers were to win tomorrow afternoon, the Roar would be at least 10 points clear with 3 matches to play, which is enough to be officially be crowned Premiers, as well as secure group stage qualification for the 2015 Asian Champions League. It may be party time for the majority of supporters, but as MIke Mulvey said in a post-match interview on FoxSports, I promise you that the champagne will remain on ice, with the new Premiers taking on Melbourne Heart next Friday night. Just a quick update in the NRL match from 1300 Smiles Stadium in Townsville, and the New Zealand Warriors have opened up an 18-6 lead over North Queensland Cowboys with 15 minutes to play. Will be back in about half an hour to recap the final score, as well as get the team news from Stamford Bridge as Chelsea take on Arsenal in a London Derby with title implications.
