Fixtures

The 2009 season will be played over 10 rounds, followed by a finals series.[1] Canberra opened the season with a grand final rematch against Queensland Roar. Just four players that started the grand final nine months earlier remained for Canberra, and were outplayed by a Roar team that retained much of their championship winning squad for the second season.
