Matildas
this CBA really is ground-breaking for lots of reasons, which I’ll flesh out on @abcsport in the next few days, but the biggest cultural shift I feel is that players are actually structurally part of growing the business of football now rather than a pawn in someone else’s game. https://t.co/xrKwl0G6XI

While the Matildas centralised contracts had the benefit of allowing the country’s best players to avoid any possibility of needing a side gig, it’s good that they’ve been swapped for equal match payments.

i mean it’s pretty poor from the AFC to allow the streams to be broadcast like this. No sound, single camera, delays due to stadium lights, no commentary. What does this say to the teams and the fans? pretty disrespectful, i guess the positive is that they’re showing it at least

If a professional club can’t find a ground anywhere, I have to wonder how hard they’re trying. https://t.co/f30M7pLYae
