BRISBANE Roar's 2014-2015 A-League campaign will include a Monday night home match in a revamped season draw.

The season will now finish a week later, with the grand final to be played on May 17 rather than the original May 10 date.

Brisbane's scheduled midweek December 3 Suncorp Stadium clash with Newcastle Jets has been shifted to the night of Friday, April 24, the starting date of what is now the final round of the regular season.

Roar's home battle with Wellington Phoenix, which had been slotted in for February 1, has also been moved and will now be played on Monday, February 2, kicking off at 7pm.

The later finish to the season was decided after alterations were made to next year's AFC Champions League competition, which Roar will contest following their premiership-championship double last season.

The Champions League round-of-16 clashes in May will revert to two-legged home and away affairs rather than one-off games, as has been the case for the past couple of years.

"The updates to the draw we have made will give the A-League clubs competing in the AFC Champions League 2015 the best opportunity to succeed in that important competition, while also protecting the integrity of the A-League 2015 finals series," A-League boss Damien de Bohun said.

"Whilst we would obviously prefer not to make these changes at this stage, this is the reality of the global nature of football - which is also one of the great strengths of our game."

Meanwhile, Roar coach Mike Mulvey has confirmed that Brisbane Strikers forward Matt Thurtell and Olympic FC attacking weapon Reuben Way will be invited to trial with the club for a further fortnight.

Goal-machine Thurtell last week told The Courier-Mail of his determination to snare a deal with tRoar, who have two vacancies in their A-League roster.

"We will invite Matty and Reuben back to train with us for another two weeks - I promised them that," Mulvey said.

"We have two more positions available (but) we're not signing people for the sake of it. We're only going to sign people that are going to make the squad better."

Mulvey said that both Thurtell and Way - whose NPL Queensland and FFA Cup commitments are now over - both trained well during their initial trial with the A-League champions.

"But you've got to weigh up the deficiencies that they face which is based on two and three nights a week training rather than six or seven days training a week," the Roar boss said.
