Brisbane Roars attacking ranks are set to be boosted by the availability of Dimitri Petratos and Arana for Friday nights A-League blockbuster against Melbourne City.Neither player has made an appearance this season, with Petratos having battled an ankle injury and Spanish recruit Arana told to build up fitness after his arrival four weeks ago.But its expected they will come into consideration, most likely for a bench spot, for the Roars second match at Suncorp Stadium in the space of six days.Exactly where they fit in Brisbanes new-look side is the pertinent question.After Brisbanes impressive 2-1 win over Perth Glory on Sunday, coach John Aloisi would be forgiven for not wanting to change too much.Petratos was the teams main creative outlet last season but faces a difficult task in unseating Brett Holman, who is looking increasingly comfortable at No.10.Arana, meanwhile, is capable of playing anywhere in the front three but has the likes of Tommy Oar, Thomas Broich and Brandon Borrello ahead of him in the pecking order.The 31-year-old, who has played most of his career in Spains Segunda Division but spent three seasons in La Liga, was a late arrival at the Roar and didnt feature in any of their pre-season fixtures.Its a good headache to have, options - we need options, Aloisi said.Weve got a game in five days and we might need to make changes, if players dont recover well or if this game took a lot out of them.If we make (Asian) Champions League, which were preparing to make, we need a deep squad and thats why weve brought in these players.Melbourne City have the benefit of a full seven-day break after beating Adelaide 2-1 on Friday night.They did so without marquee star Tim Cahill, who was rested and should be fit to start alongside captain and strike partner Bruno Fornaroli.A big crowd is expected at Suncorp as the match is Citys only away fixture in Queensland all season.

RIO DE JANEIRO? -- At least one member of Australias traveling party believes it would be a mistake to give the early darlings of the mens basketball tournament zero shot at an upset Wednesday night when the Boomers take on the highly favored United States.Its always possible, mate, Australia assistant coach and former NBA championship-winning center Luc Longley said Monday after an impressive 95-80 win over Serbia moved the Americans next opponent to a surprising 2-0 in Group A.There are no impossibilities in basketball.Yet it should be stressed that Longley, like all of Australias players, is realistic about the challenge ahead, even after their stirring victories over a top medal contender in France and a Serbian squad that finished second to the United States in the 2014 FIBA World Cup.The only thing Longley was prepared to guarantee about Wednesday nights game at the Carioca Arena 1 in Rio is that the Australians will try to make it as scrappy as possible, with Matthew Dellavedova leading that charge at point guard and physical big men Andrew Bogut and Aron Baynes in the frontcourt.That should be the first thing we write on our whiteboard every game: Lets not be fun to play against, said Longley, who has moved into coaching after a playing career that featured three rings with the Chicago Bulls in the Michael Jordan era.I think coming into the tournament, everyone would have looked at us and said, Were not looking forward to that game. Thats certainly the way the players want it to be. Its our brand of basketball. Its really the only way we have of punching above our weight class.The level of physicality in the matchup pitting Milwaukees Dellavedova against his former Cleveland Cavaliers teammate Kyrie Irving will naturally get a lot of attention in the buildup to tipoff, but Dellavedova also happens to be coming off what might be his finest offensive performance in a national team jersey: 23 points and 13 assists (with zero turnovers) agaainst Serbia in support of Patty Mills team-high 26 points.ddddddddddddhis is the first time in Olympic mens play that Australia has managed a 2-0 start. In the quarterfinals of the 2012 Summer Games in London -- with Bogut unavailable because of injury -- Australia was typically feisty and made its presence felt, but ultimately couldnt prevent a 33-point defeat.Its the ultimate test, Bogut said of facing the United States, which will match him up against former teammates Klay Thompson and Draymond Green -- as well as Harrison Barnes -- for the first time since Bogut and Barnes moved on to the Dallas Mavericks in the wake of?Golden States acquisition of Kevin Durant.Theyre the best team in the world, best players in the world, so I think if we go out there with the right mindset and compete with them, win or lose, well be happy with that, Bogut continued. If we go out there and were intimidated by them and try and get our shoes signed before the game and a signed jersey, were in the wrong mindset.Serbia coach Sasha Djordjevic, after watching Australia pull away late for another double-digit win on top of the Aussies impressive 21-point rout of Tony Parker-led France, said the front-line trio of Bogut, Baynes and David Andersen is second to none in the whole tournament in terms of intensity.They plan man basketball, said Serbia center Miroslav Raduljica, who scored a team-high 25 points Monday.Put a million dollars on it and youd probably get a dollar back if you bet on em, Bogut said of Team USA. So its a great challenge for us. It really gets us in a mindset of seeing what we gotta do to make our offense better and our defense better.Said Andersen, who played parts of three seasons in the NBA: Its like a Hail Mary I suppose youd call it. But were gonna go out there and give it our all and try to shake up the world. ' ' '
