Craig Andrew Moore (born 12 December 1975) is an Australian former professional footballer who played as a centre-back. His 2006 FIFA World Cup profile describes him as being "tough-tackling and uncompromising but also calm and composed under pressure."[2]

Moore, born and raised in the western Sydney suburb of Doonside, where he attended Crawford Public School and Doonside High while playing for the Doonside Hawks Soccer Club, is best known for his two spells with Scottish Premier Division / Scottish Premier League club Rangers. Having graduated through their youth system, Moore made 252 appearances for the Glasgow based club from 1993 to 2005, punctuated with a season in England with Crystal Palace in the 1998–99 First Division. In his time at Rangers, he became team captain and won numerous domestic league and cup honours, including making 44 appearances and scoring four goals in their 2002–03 Treble-winning season. Moore became an important player at the centre of Rangers defence up until 2004 over two spells.

After leaving Rangers on a free transfer in January 2005, Moore spent a half-season at German Bundesliga club Borussia Mönchengladbach, before moving to English Premier League club Newcastle United. Released by Newcastle after an injury hit two seasons, Moore returned to Australia signing with Queensland Roar (later renamed Brisbane Roar) in the Australian A-League, as their captain and Marquee player. After three seasons with the Roar, in January 2010 Moore moved to Greek Super League side AO Kavala, only to leave in March.

In international football, Moore has made over 50 appearances for the Australia national team, including at the 2006 and 2010 World Cups in Germany and South Africa. Having made his debut in 1995, he has been Australia national team captain a number of times.

Early life

[edit]

Moore was born in Canterbury, New South Wales and raised in Doonside, New South Wales. He played junior football with Brisbane club North Star after his family relocated north when he was thirteen, before a scholarship with the Australian Institute of Sport.[3] While progressing through the Australian Institute of Sport, Moore was friends with Mark Viduka, having known each other since they were teenagers.[3]

While making his way to become a professional footballer, Moore was taught and mentored by Eddie Thomson and was responsible for helping him play in the centre–back position, a position he played throughout his whole career.[4] Manager Walter Smith agreed on playing Moore in the centre–back position, saying: "Centre half is his natural position, although I have used him mostly at full back and in midfield. He is mobile and clever, although his aggressive style of play tends to earn him more bookings than any of us would wish."[5]

Club career

[edit]

Rangers (first spell)

[edit]

Moore joined Rangers youth system from the Australian Institute of Sport in 1993 and was assigned to the development squad for a year.[6][7] He made his Rangers debut, starting the whole gamein a 0–0 draw against Dundee United on 5 April 1994.[7] Local newspaper The Herald said: "Most of the Rangers supporters among the 11,048 crowd were unaware of the existence of Moore."[7]

Rangers (second spell)

[edit]

On 31 March 1999, Moore returned to Rangers after the South London club defaulted on transfer payments.[46] Prior to the move, he was linked with a move to Birmingham City and Leeds United, but the wage issues prevented his move to Birmingham City.[47] Moore scored on his return, in a 3–1 lost against St. Johnstone on 4 April 1999.[48] However, his return was short–lived when he suffered a knee injury after colliding a teammate and was out for the rest of the 1998–99 season.[49] With his return to Rangers, Moore went on to make twelve appearances and scoring once in all competitions.

Ahead of the 1999–00 season, Moore recovered from his injury and was featured in a number of friendly matches for Rangers.[50] He helped the club qualify for the UEFA Champions League group stage by beating FC Haka and Parma.[51] Moore continued to regain his first team place under the management of Dick Advocaat, forming a partnership with Lorenzo Amoruso.[52][3] On 15 September 1999, he scored an own goal, in a 2–0 lost against Valencia in the UEFA Champions League group stage.[53] A month later on 26 October 1999, Moore scored his first goal of the season in the club’s return leg against Valencia, losing 2–1.[54] His performance was praised by manager Advocaat, who believed to be "the only Rangers player who performed anywhere close to personal equilibrium" and justified his action on choosing him over Colin Hendry.[55] He scored his second goal of the season, in a 5–0 win against Aberdeen on 22 January 2000.[56] A month later on 19 February 2000, Moore scored his third goal of the season, in a 1–0 win against Greenock Morton.[57] However, he suffered a knee injury that saw him out for two months.[58] Prior to this, Moore faced injury and suspension setbacks halfway through the 1999–00 season.[59] While on the sidelined, he was nominated for the PFA Scotland Players' Player of the Year, but lost out to Viduka.[60][61] But Moore made his return to the starting line–up in the Scottish Cup final against Aberdeen and played 71 minutes before being substituted, in a 4–0 win to add a double.[62] At the end of the 1999–00 season, he went on to make thirty–nine appearances and scoring three times in all competitions.

Ahead of the 2000–01 season, Moore was emerged as the favourite to take over the captain armband at Rangers after the injuries of Amoruso and Arthur Numan, as well as, the first choice centre–back with Bert Konterman.[63] He captained his first match for the club against Žalgiris Kaunas in the second round qualifier of the UEFA Champions League, in a 4–1 win on 26 July 2000.[64] However, Moore suffered a knee injury once again and was eventually sidelined for seven months.[65] Due to his injury, this was considered "as a contributory factor" to Rangers’ struggles throughout the 2000–01 season.[66] He spent months at training in order to regain his fitness while recovering from a knee injury.[67] Moore made his first appearances for the club in seven months, playing in the right–back and setting up a goal for Tore André Flo, who scored twice, in a 2–0 win on 3 March 2001.[68] However, his return was short–lived when he was sent–off for a second bookable offence, in a 2–0 lost against Dundee on 14 March 2001.[69] After not playing for a month due to his international commitment, Moore returned to the starting line–up against Celtic on 29 April 2001 and played the whole game, in a 3–0 lost.[70] At the end of the 2000–01 season, he made six appearances in all competitions.

A consistent and powerful defender, he always tries to do the simple things well."[94] At the end of the 2002–03 season, Moore went on to make forty–four appearances and scoring four times in all competitions.

Ahead of the 2003–04 season, Moore was expecting to make himself available in the first team under the management of Alex McLeish and also appointed as a new captain following the departure of Barry Ferguson.[95] However, he suffered a hamstring injury during a 1–1 draw against Copenhagen in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League third round, and was sidelined for a month.[96] On 27 September 2003, Moore made his return from injury, coming on as a second half substitute, in a 3–1 win against Dundee.[97] He captained his first match for Rangers against Panathinaikos in the UEFA Champions League match and helped the club drew 1–1.[98] However, Moore, once again, suffered another hamstring injury and was substituted in the 68th minute; in a 3–0 lost against Manchester United on 5 November 2003.[99] It wasn’t until on 28 December 2003 when he made his return from injury, coming on as a second half substitute, in a 3–1 win against Dundee.[100] Having been suspended twice in the beginning of 2004, Moore then scored his first goal of the season, in a 2–0 win against Kilmarnock on 11 February 2004.[101] His second goal of the season then came on 13 March 2004, in a 1–1 draw against Hearts.[102] However, he suffered a knee injury that saw him sidelined for the rest of the 2003–04 season.[103] Despite this, Moore went on to make twenty–five appearances and scoring two times in all competitions.

Ahead of the 2004–05 season, Moore’s future at Rangers was in doubt after McLeish stated that he "may leave the club if the player’s ambition didn't match the manager" and still maintain that he need to fight for his first team place.[104] This came after his contract negotiation have been stalled with the club, to the point that his relationship with McLeish to "have deteriorated, perhaps beyond repair".[105] However, his involvement in the "Olyroos", the Australian Olympic Football team, angered Rangers manager McLeish as it forced him to miss the start of the Scottish league season, resulting in Moore being stripped of the club’s captaincy and was placed on a transfer list.[106] Following, he was linked with a move away from Rangers in the summer transfer window, with Real Sociedad and Blackburn Rovers interested in signing Moore.[107] His move to Blackburn Rovers collapsed after failing a medical.[108] He ended up staying at the club and made his first appearance of the season, starting the whole game, in a 1–1 draw against CSKA Moscow in the UEFA Champions League play–offs that saw Rangers eliminated from the tournament.[109] Following this, Moore was forced to the fringes of the team and never played for Rangers again.[110] It was reported on 22 December 2004 that he’s expecting to leave the club, with Everton and Borussia Mönchengladbach interested in signing him.[111] By the time Moore left Rangers, he made six appearances in all competitions in the 2004–05 season.

Shortly after his sacking, it was emerged that the club sacked him after he attended training drunk, a claimed that was denied by Moore.[117] This also led Moore to take legal action against Borussia Mönchengladbach.[118]

Newcastle United

[edit]

On 30 July 2005, Moore signed a two-year deal at Newcastle United to play for the first time in the Premier League.[119]

Moore made his competitive Newcastle United debut on 22 March 2006 against Chelsea in the FA Cup quarter-final, becoming the second Australian to play for the Magpies after Dave Mitchell who had a loan spell at St James' Park in the 1990–91 season.[120] Moore's actual first game came at home to Yeading in which he scored one of five goals.[121] Following this, he started in the remaining matches of the 2005–06 season, playing in the centre–back position.[122] However, Injuries ruined Moore's Newcastle career, and he only made eight premiership appearances in the 2005–06 season.[123] Due to injuries when Moore started out at the club, newspaper The Northern Echo branded him as the 'Invisible Man'.[124]

Ahead of the 2006–07season, Moore was placed on a transfer list by manager Glenn Roeder and was linked with a move to A-League club, but the move did not happen.[125] He’s also stated about regaining his fitness in order to win his first team place at Newcastle United.[126] Since the start of the 2006–07 season, Moore became a first team regular, forming a centre–back partnership with Titus Bramble.[127] He then captained his first match at Newcastle United, helping the club win 1–0 against Palermo in the UEFA Cup match on 2 November 2006. [128] However, Moore was then injured with a torn hamstring in November 2006 and was ruled out for several months.[129] He previously suffered a knee injury earlier in the 2006–07 season, but recovered quickly.[130] Moore returned but he struggled to get back into the team, with Peter Ramage, Steven Taylor, and Bramble keeping him out.[131] After Bramble's dip in form, Moore returned to the first team, appearing four times.[132] However, his return was short–lived when he suffered another injury that eventually saw him sidelined for the rest of the 2006–07 season.[133] Moore made 17 premiership appearances in the 2006–07 season.

On 16 May 2007, it was announced that Moore's contract would not be renewed, and he was released by the club.[134] He made 31 appearances for Newcastle.

[edit]

It was rumoured on 25 July 2007 that Moore had signed with Queensland Roar (now Brisbane Roar), to become the Roar's Marquee signing for the 2007–08 Hyundai A-League Season and the 2008–2009 season.[135] This was confirmed with an announcement by Queensland and Moore on 25 July 2007 with Moore signing to be Queensland's marquee player for two years.[136] Upon joining the club, he was given a captain ahead of the new season.[137]

Moore's career with the Queensland Roar did not start well when he was sent off in the 69th minute in the first game of the season against Adelaide United for a second yellow card. Although Queensland Roar were trailing 2–1 at the time, they came back to level the score at 2–2 and hold on for a draw.[138] After serving a one match suspension, Moore made his return to the starting line–up for the club, in a 1–0 lost against Central Coast Mariners on 6 September 2007.[139] He helped Queensland Roar finished fourth place in the league to qualify for the Final series.[140] However, the club lost in the Preliminary Final, in a 3–2 defeat against Newcastle Jets after extra time.[141] At the end of the 2007–08 season, Moore went on to make twenty–one appearances in all competitions. For his performance, he was awarded the Gary Wilkins Medal (Player of the Year).[142]

After missing the start of the 2008–09 season due to injury, Moore scored his first goal for the Queensland Roar in their 2008–09 season round four clash with Perth Glory, as the club went on to win 3–0.[143] However, his season was interrupted after being diagnosed with testicular cancer.[144] In his first match since the announcement, he started the whole game against Perth Glory on 22 November 2008 and helped Queensland Roar win 4–1.[145] After being given all clear, he then scored his second goal of the season, in a 2–1 win against Melbourne Victory on 2 January 2009.[146][147] Moore helped the club finished third place to qualify for the Final series once again.[148] However, Queensland Roar lost in the Preliminary Final, in a 1–0 defeat against Adelaide United.[149] At the end of the 2008–09 season, he made twenty–three appearances and scoring two times in all competitions.

Despite leaving Brisbane Roar on bad terms, Moore’s time at the club was remembered fondly by players and the club, who even selected him in Brisbane Roar Ultimate Eleven.[155]

[edit]

In January 2010, he moved to Greek side AO Kavala on an eighteen-month contract.[156] He debuted for Kavala on 10 January 2010 in a 1–0 lost against Asteras Tripolis.[157][158][159]

It was reported on 31 March 2010 that his contract with Kavala had been terminated after an off-field incident.[160] Moore later denied there had been an off-field incident, stating he had left over fears that he could experience burnout or serious injury, endangering his 2010 World Cup place, had he stayed at the Greek side, having played 15 games in all, 13 of those in just five weeks, on top of his games at the Roar earlier in the season.[161]

Having represented the Socceroos levels, Moore made his debut for the Australia national team and started the whole game, in a 1–0 win against Ghana on 21 June 1995.[174] He played in both legs of the FIFA World Cup qualification against Iran, as the Socceroos failed to qualify for the FIFA World Cup after drawing 3–3 on aggregate through away goal.[175]

It wasn’t until on 23 February 2000 when Moore made his first appearances for Socceroos in three years and scored his first goal for the national team, as well as, setting up the first goal of the game, in a 3–0 win against Hungary.[176] A year later on 28 March 2001, he and his then Rangers teammate, Tony Vidmar were called up to the Socceroos squad for the World Cup qualifying matches.[177] The decision to call-up both players angered manager Advocaat before and during Australia’s World Cup qualifying matches.[178] Moore played all four matches for the national team, including a 22–0 win against Tonga and a 31–0 win against American Samoa.[179] A month later, he was called up to the Socceroos squad for the FIFA Confederations Cup.[180] Moore played three matches in the tournament until he was sent–off for a second bookable offence, in a 1–0 lost against Japan in the semi–finals of the FIFA Confederations Cup.[181] He, once again, played in both legs of the FIFA World Cup qualification against Uruguay, as the Socceroos failed to qualify for the FIFA World Cup after losing 3–1 on aggregate.[182]

Following this, Moore did not get a Socceroos call–up until 30 January 2003 for the match against England, starting the whole game, in a 3–1 win on 12 February 2003.[183] He didn’t receive another call up from the national team until on 28 January 2004 and captained the Socceroos for the first time, in a 1–1 draw against Venezuela on 18 February 2004.[184]

Moore was called up to the "Olyroos" squad, the Australian Olympic Football team at the 2004 Olympics at Athens, Greece and was named the captain for the tournament.[106][185] With his leadership, he helped the Aussie Olympic team to advance to the quarter–finals after finishing second place in the group stage.[186] In the quarter–finals, the "Olyroos" was eliminated after losing 1–0 against Iraq.[187]

A year later, Moore was called up to the national team squad for the FIFA Confederations Cup.[188] Around this time, he was planning to retire from playing international football.[189] Moore played all three matches for the Socceroos, as the national team were eliminated in the group stage.[190]

In May 2006, Moore represented the Socceroos in the FIFA World Cup, which was the first time since 1974 that the national team last played in the tournament.[191] Prior to the start of the tournament, he said: "You look at our squad, there's going to be competition for all places. That's a good thing, a nice headache for the manager, but I'm confident if I'm fit that I can get back into the team."[192] Moore made his World Cup debut, forming a centre–back partnership with Lucas Neill and Scott Chipperfield, and played 61 minutes before being substituted, in a 3–1 win against Japan.[193] He then scored a penalty kick against Croatia in the 39th minute of the game, in a 2–2 draw enabling Australia to progress to the round of 16.[194] However, Moore started the whole game, as Socceroos lost 1–0 against Italy in the knockout stage and saw Australia eliminated from the tournament.[195]

Following the World Cup, Moore spoke about on choosing to represent club over country should he received a call–up.[196] However, he was in a row with Football Federation Australia after arriving late for the Socceroos’ assembly in Brisbane in time for training and other commitments, therefore breaching the National Team Players Agreement and Code of Conduct.[197] This led manager Graham Arnold to suspend him.[198] A month later on 14 November 2006, Moore’s suspension was lifted and played 45 minutes before being substituted, in a 1–1 draw against Ghana.[199] He announced his international retirement on 6 February 2008 after Australia's 3–0 win over Qatar in their first FIFA World Cup Qualifier at Telstra Dome.[200][142]

In September that year, Moore announced his return to come out of retirement for the Socceroos’ International call ups.[201] On 1 October 2008, Australian coach Pim Verbeek announced that he was part of the 35-man squad for the upcoming World Cup Qualifiers.[202] On 14 October 2008, Moore made his first appearance for the national team, coming against Qatar, the last team he played against, and helped Socceroos win 4–0.[203] In May 2010, he represented the Socceroos in the FIFA World Cup in South Africa.[204] Moore played two matches in the World Cup against Germany and Ghana.[205] However like Harry Kewell, he was suspended for the next match against Serbia after picking up two yellow cards in the tournament and the national team were eliminated from the tournament despite winning the last game.[206]

Moore retired from international football after the 2010 World Cup.[207]

Personal life

[edit]

In November 2008, Moore was diagnosed with, and underwent surgery for, testicular cancer.[144] Six weeks later, he was given the all-clear to resume his playing career, having caught it early.[146][208] After being given the all-clear, Moore said that he undergoes tests every three to four months.[208]

In January 2005, Moore was questioned by police on an accusation on racially abusing a taxi driver on New Year’s Day but he did not face charges after questioning.[209] On 16 September 2010, Moore was arrested in Dubai after being in alterations with a taxi driver.[210][211] After making a court appearance, he was fined for 1 ,000 dirhams (about $283) on Sunday for consuming alcohol.[212][211]

Moore is married to his wife and together, they have two children.[213]

In December 2008, Moore was fined for lodging bets totalling $600 on two matches involving A-League teams with betting exchange Betfair. These matches did not include his own side, and because of this, it was deemed a fine was a satisfactory punishment, with the Roar labelling it as an 'honest mistake'.[214] In response to the fine, he said: "That's been dealt with and it was an honest mistake. I put my hand up and I accepted the punishment, so for me, it's been dealt with and we move on."[215]
