Rafael Struick absent from Brisbane Roar squad after Australia match

Rafael Struick faces a challenging situation at Brisbane Roar — Struick hasn’t returned to the team squad since the international match against Australia.

The striker who left ADO Den Haag in search of more playing time in the Australian League has experienced a disappointing season — he has only recorded 10 appearances totaling 239 minutes in the A-League 2024/25.

Despite limited club appearances, Struick maintains his role with the Indonesian national team. During last month’s international fixture, he started against Australia and nearly caused an upset — his movement in the penalty box drew a foul from Kye Rowles in the seventh minute.
