Saturday night was a big homecoming for the Brisbane Roar. It was the first home game back at Suncorp Stadium since the Queensland Floods six weeks ago.  It was also the final game of the regular season, an M1 Derby against the Gold Coast, and the night in which they would be presented with the Premiere’s Plate for finishing top ...
