Wehrman takes the helm at Pride in a player/coach capacity and is ably assisted by former Rochedale and Redlands coach Peter Bannon. Wehrman earnt 12 caps for his country and made representative appearances at national level at Under 20’s and Under 23’s. Kasey Wehrman Newcastle Jets to Western Pride Indeed, it is a huge coup now for the NPL and Brisbane Strikers coach David Large to land Taylor who scored 24 goals in 50 appearances whilst in the BPL. It was a huge coup for the BPL in getting a player of his talent to leave the QSL’s Sunshine Coast Fire. He had an immediate impact and was a catalyst for getting the club out of their rut. Josh Taylor Peninsula Power to Brisbane StrikersĪfter a slow start to the 2011 BPL season, Power under now Moreton Bay coach Terry Kirkham signed Josh Taylor. Mundy made 29 appearances in the orange and at the age of 25 will hope that this move may open the door to another opportunity at the highest level. Olympic have had a plethora of attacking options and have added to that with Smits, however in Matt Mundy they have someone with experience at the local level as well as the talent that saw him earn a contract with the Roar. I chose Mundy because he strengthens Olympic in an area of need. Messrs Aparicio, Smits, McLean and Efstathis have also joined Tim Brown in making the move to Goodwin Park. I had plenty of former Rochedale players to choose from and some of the others will be disappointed not to make the list. Matt Mundy Rochedale Rovers to Olympic FC He is a very significant addition, and one that helps the stature of both the club and the league. The 32-year old centre back has plenty of experience having plied his trade in Romania and Scotland. Karl has played 61 games in the top competitions in Australia including spells in Queensland with Strikers, Roar and the Fury. Karl Dodd TSW Pegasus (Hong Kong) to Moreton Bay Unitedĭodd joins new club Moreton Bay Jets after spending a year in Hong Kong and will get a chance to play against former club Palm Beach Sharks. I am excited to see how Biggins performs in a very new City lineup under coach Glenn Volker. With Taringa failing to secure a BPL spot in 2013, Biggins has opted for a move to Brisbane City and the NPL. He notched 65 league games for the blues and got his highest goal return with 8 last term. Matt Biggins Taringa Rovers to Brisbane Cityīiggins has been highly regarded member of Taringa Rovers since arriving at the club in 2009. There has been plenty of movement of players, but these are the five that caught my eye. The 2013 National Premier League – Queensland begins its inaugural season in less than two weeks. Posted in Brisbane Premier League Leave a comment 5 biggest NPL-Q moves (for interest the remainder of the top 10 were Shaun Feuerriegel 47, Steffan Vroom 46, Kado Aoci 45, Alex Panic 45, Terry Hughes 44) Not just for his natural ability in front of goal but also for his workrate. Daniel Byrne – 49 – Danny has been one of the best strikers in the BPL since arriving in the competition. Trent Clulow – 57 – I’m a bit surprised to find Trent, or Trenny, on this list, whilst i knew he had notched a few for Wolves over the years his 57 goals in 108 games is a fabulous rate of return and better than my memory suggested.ĥ. For a long time he was the BPL’s Gazza!Ĥ. Papa had the flash of brilliance that could turn a game. Evan Papadopoulus – 59 – Evan’s a surprise name on the list having not played in the BPL last season and so has only 4 years of eligibility. Royce Brownlie – 60 – After returning from overseas, Brownlie scored plenty of memorable goals especially during Power’s title winning team in 2009.ģ. He could strike a mean free kick and often had the beating of the keeper when one on one.Ģ. Carl Tabulo – 63 – The recent retired Tabs, could be mesmerising and scored plenty of goals for Rochedale. I thought i’d go through the record books and see who has the most BPL goals to their name over the past 5 seasons.ġ. With no games played there wasn’t a chance to see the thing we all love about the BPL…goals!!
