Sydney FC captain Alex Brosque<br />

announces retirement<br />

DECORATED Sydney FC captain<br />

and trump card Alex Brosque (pictured)<br />

will retire from professional<br />

football at the end of this season.<br />

<strong>The</strong> 35-year old will<br />

bring down the curtain<br />

on his 18-year career<br />

after the Sky Blues’ final<br />

game of the current<br />

campaign.<br />

“Football and Sydney<br />

FC has allowed me to<br />

have some of the most<br />

incredible experiences<br />

I could ever have imagined,”<br />

Brosque said.<br />

“To have been able<br />

to do something I’ve<br />

loved ever since I was<br />

a young boy, and for<br />

this long, is incredibly<br />

humbling.<br />

“But after 18 years<br />

playing the game, I feel<br />

the time is right now to<br />

retire.”<br />

He said the club and<br />

its members had been<br />

fantastic to him and<br />

the connection he had<br />

with them was something<br />

he would carry<br />

with him forever.<br />

Brosque is Sydney<br />

FC’s most successful<br />

captain with four trophies<br />

and the club’s<br />

all-time leading goalscorer<br />

(82 goals) and<br />

has also made the<br />

most appearances on<br />

the pitch (264).<br />

He has collected<br />

more honours than<br />

anyone who’s played<br />

and robbed an Eastwood money exchange<br />

Sydney FC Chairman<br />

Scott Barlow believes<br />

Brosque’s career record<br />

at Sydney FC will<br />

last for many years.<br />

“Alex Brosque is unquestionably<br />

Sydney<br />

FC’s greatest ever<br />

player,” he said.<br />

“He has given this<br />

club the best part of<br />

his career and along<br />

with it an enormous<br />

amount of success.<br />

“He is a true leader,<br />

the ultimate competitor<br />

and one of the most<br />

genuine people in the<br />

game.”<br />

Sydney FC Head<br />

Coach Steve Corica<br />

praised the effect Brosque<br />

has had on the<br />

club and Sky<br />

Blues’ captain’s<br />

achievements.<br />

“Alex Brosque is a<br />

name synonymous<br />

with Sydney FC and<br />

his list of records are<br />

incredible,” he said.<br />

“As captain he has<br />

led by example and it<br />

is no surprise the enor-<br />

A WEST RYDE man<br />

was arrested and charged<br />

with Indecent Assault last<br />

week.<br />

Police allege the 31 year<br />

old indecently assaulted a<br />

23 year old woman near<br />

Meadowbank Station at<br />

11.57 pm on Friday, <strong>April</strong><br />

5th.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> woman walked up<br />

the stairs onto the footbridge<br />

followed by the<br />

man,” police said.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> woman stopped as<br />

she was attempting to put<br />

her shoes on and the man<br />

followed her, with his face<br />

covered with a bandana.<br />

“He then indecently<br />

grabbed the woman.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> woman then<br />

grabbed the man by the<br />

hair, pulling two of his<br />

dreadlocks from his head,<br />

screamed out and another<br />

man came to assist her.”<br />

Officers later found the<br />

man near the site of the<br />

alleged assault but he<br />

was unconcious and was<br />

taken to Concord Hospital<br />

after being treated by<br />

paramedics.<br />

He was later released<br />

from hospital into the custody<br />

of police and was<br />

charged with<br />

Indecent Assault and<br />

Stalking/Intimidation.
