Karl Dodd

Karl Dodd (born 13 November 1980 in Southport, Queensland, Australia) is an Australian football (soccer) player who plays as a centre back for North Queensland Fury in the A-League.

Club career

He played for the Brisbane Strikers before being recruited by the Queensland Roar for the revamped A-League competition. After half a season with the lowly ranked Queensland Roar he signed for Romanian club FC Universitatea Craiova in January 2006. However, after failing to settle with the club he quickly moved on, joining Falkirk on a short-term contract in March 2006. After impressing manager John Hughes, it was announced on 15 May, 2006 that Dodd had agreed a new one-year deal to stay at the club.

On 19 May 2007, coming off contract with Falkirk, he signed a two-year contract with new A-League franchise Wellington Phoenix. He scored his first professional goal for Phoenix on 19 October 2008.

On the 14th of April 2009 the Wellington Phoenix decided to not renew Dodd's contract. “Karl’s been an integral member of the Phoenix,” Pignata said. “It’s disappointing that we’re parting company but we wish him all the best for the future.”

After his release from Wellington he trailed for Newcastle but was unable to sign a contract. Instead he was signed for the remainder of the 2008/09 season by NSW Premier League team Sydney United FC. After a strong pre-season he signed with A-League newcomer North Queensland Fury and made his debut against Sydney FC.
