At 32, Thomas Broich is one of the more experienced players in the Brisbane Roar line-up. Arriving in 2010 from German club FC Nuremberg it didn-t take long for the midfielder to make his mark in Australia.
The German wasted no time at all slotting seamlessly into the Hyundai A-League, quickly becoming one of the competition-s most dangerous players with his sublime footwork, pinpoint crosses and endless energy. With six goals and 14 assists, including two in the Grand Final, Broich was a worthy winner of Brisbane Roar-s prestigious Gary Wilkins Award for Player of the Year in the 2010/11 season.
In the 2011/12 season, Broich won the Johnny Warren Player of the Year medal for best player in the Hyundai A-League, along with the Foreign Player of the Year award as he lead the Roar to back-back grand final victories.
