Australian Football Stuff - not worthy of a thread

friend of a friend assures me that Cahn had a bust up with the club owners and left due to that, and it had nothing to do with medical issues

I call BS on this

You think A-League grounds and playing conditions can be a bit patchy? Take a look at the Matildas recent Under 20 Asian Cup match.

U20 Asian Cup - Australia v South Korea

To be fair, the pitch itself looks fine!

You leave the snow on as protection against frost (strange I know)
Frozen pitches are dangerous and unplayable. Snow is quite fun

Played in the snow once. It was a full on blizzard. Standing around waiting for kickoff was the worst. I wore a heavy trench coat until the ref was ready to blow his whistle! Not fun at all.

Was artificial pitch. Was like a computer game with obstacles in the way. Was fun to watch and we were better at using the sides than them in the second half that I watched

Merrick keeping Arnold in a job.
Time for a fresh view that doesn't have FA's seeming dislike of AL players.
Bring AL back under FA

GA should stay on in his director of football role. Hes done an excellent job with the culture and talent ID.
But as an NT manager hes well short.

It seems that Arthur Papas has left his championship leading team in Thailand - Buriram United FC. Should an ALM manager be nervous? One rumour (the other rumour less hopeful) is that the Canberra deal is close - so is he the inaugural manager?

No no no! We need O'Rudan I stay, keep them shit, and block the supply lines for youth talent so that we can poach them

Wish Corica stayed for the same reason

Yeah right.

Davila got a show cause notice from the MRP for putting hands on Ridon's (I think) neck in a scuffle. Sounds like there's a good chance of a red being issued post game for that. The MRP meets again tonight to discuss it and any response he offered.

Good - hes a grub and punishment is long overdue. Maybe in the refs report?

I don’t think so. Wasn’t sanctioned at all so they likely reviewed the flare ups or simply saw it in real time as an issue not addressed. Not his first time doing it this season either

@Bay49Wanderers - be interesting to see how long it stays up
