ABC news online have beaten The World Game in announcing the launch of the A-League: the new Australian football (soccer) competition commencing next year. Brisbane will be represented by the Queensland Lions, formerly known as the Brisbane Lions and Hollandia. They have competed in the NSL before. The Australian Soccer Association (ASA) must have deemed the Lions to be more financially viable than the Brisbane Strikers. It’s going to be confusing having two national teams called the Lions in Brisbane: one an AFL team, and one a soccer team.
