I disagree. I think the article asks pretty specific questions which aren't answered. If they had been, the 'suspicions' could easy be proven wrong. As things stand, this makes a compelling case for double dipping and the team gaining and unfair advantage. I don't even care about the NL anymore. Haven't been to a single match since they did away with my beloved Team Wellington and all the other franchises, but credit where it is due.
True, but I reckon it sets out to frame the lack of answers as worthy of suspicion. Fair to be suspicious - I mean it's definitely obvious clubs are skirting around the APA as much as possible. However, as a dirty JAFA I just felt it was a little off to target one club; as it stands I believe only two Northern League don't reimburse players for coaching, and there's certainly other clubs around the nation just as, if not more egregious as ACFC without the success to back it up
ACFC won't want to come out and explicitly say "yeah, we pay this guy $150k to coach" so I kinda understand the silence
