A quick double strike after halftime has given Newcastle Jets a valuable away win in Brisbane last night. Brisbane Roar 0 Newcastle Jets 2 (M.Thompson 50th, M.Bridge pen 55th) Crowd: 6,654 The crucial victory has kept the Jets inside the top four whilst the result keeps Brisbane one point outside of the top six, with a -7 goal difference which could be crucial come the end of the season.

That finals push for Brisbane will be all the more difficult given that three of its four remaining matches are away from home, with the only home fixture being against league leaders Sydney FC.

The story is better for the Jets, with two matches at home from the remaining four and away clashes to North Queensland and Central Coast Mariners.
