Aloisi | A-Leagues All Access | Season 2 Episode 10

As brothers, John and Ross Aloisi grew up as best friends, and conquered it all in their illustrious playing careers.

This week, the A-Leagues All Access cameras were there behind the scenes to capture the action as the two face off for the first time as opposition coaches.

They discuss their close relationship and the impact their father had on their careers as we watch how the clash between Western United and Brisbane Roar played out on the pitch.

[Applause] other side turn get in the box now jine Cuts back P what we deserve come on boys come on and their Brazilian playmaker after his persistence in the first half and hold on a second just off a play here perhaps a second yellow for John

Aloi on wow what a turn of events at Amy [Applause] Park well big brother used to win the backyard bragging rights but a lot has changed since then it’s history in the making as the all whsy boys go head tohe for the very first time once that

Whistle goes we want our team to win and whether it was playing against each other in the backyard or you know when I was playing for the Mariners against Wellington Phoenix when Rossell was there we want to win off the ball there’s been a pretty heavy collision

Between the two Alo whises and this is sibling rivalry at its best that’s a good start to that contest I must have bumped in before I didn’t even realize and then 2 seconds later I get a hit at the back and I go flying and I’m going

To get angry and I I look up and it’s Ross you know I’m not an aggressive person by nature but I can become aggressive but I’m very very happy person people don’t realize but John’s my best friend we’ve got three sisters and and we’re all very close as well there’s vintage this

One when he used to come back from overseas on his break and he’d have to leave like I’d cry for days I miss him that much I probably don’t miss him that much nowadays luch you reckon they going like that I used to kick him a lot in

The backyard probably just for fun as well huh but then he started kicking me back and I knew that that he was uh going to be something different hey everyone from the start and I mean from the start of the warmup you’re focused plenty of talk come on you’re prepared I told you

You’re prepared we’re on Ross is 3 years older than than I am he was always better than me physically stronger more developed in terms of his technique in in everything he did but that made me work extra hard because I wanted to beat him and that came from my dad because my

Dad never used to let us win at anything he made us competitive that’s that’s for sure you he had to learn how to win it was never given to you and hard work is the only way you succeeded and that was his philosophy and and

Still is today he was a hard coach to play Under I played under him when I was in the under 14s and 15s I remember when he dropped me once and I was disappointed and he said well you have to be better than the others have work harder than the

Others give everything you’ve got the winning fighting mentality that we have which we call the queenslander mentality and we’ve spoken about it since day one so never say th attitude you fight to the very end work ethic is number one I can’t accept when my team doesn’t

Play well and loses because of it got too hard for some players don’t get anxious no part of the game you get anxious boys cuz they will give you chances right to the end so you have to believe right to the end in our way and stick together all the way come

On boys good luck in terms of the way that we like our football be played is is very similar very rarely that we were in disagreement of you know the way we want football to be played or see football being played let’s start fast be confident play without fear be brave

Be brave on the ball move the ball quick you move the ball quick against them you’ll open them up come on boys let’s go I’m not too bothered about players making mistakes within the way that you want to play if it’s positive sometimes it depends on you know the situations

How things are going but they always have to be working hard for each other and that that group that togetherness is so important for me in the Isuzu tunnel camp for the first competitive edition of the aloi Derby see after I won’t speak to you

After the game because one of us will be upset so John versus Ross two former socceroos two brothers as Weston United host the Brisbane Roar he understands the game really well technically very switched on he can read the game during the game and now he’s forging his own career as a head coach

And he’s he started off really well J OA standing up and burying it and Brisbane Roar hit the front the number one thing that that stands that’s always in my mind you know he’s his work ethic is he’s he’s a very very hard worker I just wait wait Get

Out to the Ball his mental strength is is something that I really admire it’s a lot better than mine that’s for sure know especially when we were playing the Brazilian buries it he gets his goal this time Daniel Pena can celebrate once more his first for the club is’s Wales standing over

The corner delivering towards that back post and it’s headed in and what a moment that Captain’s goal for Josh risen they hit the front the dying moments now here freak acting playmaker Delight for John aloisi in the stands and he gets the bragging rights over his

Brother as John aloisi joins us now you spent the rest of the game in the stands but John the bragging rights at Christmas lunch will be pretty sweet I would think yeah I don’t think my brother will invite me over for Christmas uh it was it was a bit heated wasn’t

It yeah look it was a an important game of football for us I know you guys want to play it up between being an emotional and whatnot but it was a game of football that I have to take responsibility that um you know my team didn’t win this game um and didn’t play

Anywhere near to our best my dad coached for over 30 years if not longer my brother and myself it’s in our blood we got what we deserve tonight cuz you showed even one n down things going against you you kept going you kept on playing our football right to the end

And you got what you deserve this is a start we’re building we’re building like our club we’re still building football’s in our blood we’re so passionate about it we love the game and and we know the you know the highs and lows that can come with [Applause] [Applause] It Unbelievable how about that extraordinary
