Yeah, I'm just trying to say I think money could be spent in far better ways.
Also, I won't accept the "money is tight" line again anytime soon.

Donating to the Fred Hollows Foundation - that would be genius! It would be making a very clear statement - causing more than a few grins all round - and at the same time backing a thoroughly worthy cause.

We'd have to get playwithfires permission first before making such a move though.
Fred Hollows Foundation good idea.
I'm not sure whose idea it might have been that YF itself would match dollar for dollar, (in fact has that been confirmed ??) but it was possibly done in the heat of the moment and not well thought through.
I'm with PWF. Save the YF money for better causes...
It was in the original announcement and press release we put out that we'd match it to 1k.
We're unlikely to go back on that.

im for fred hollows too...
I think you'll find dura will give it to Fred hollows tbh.
+1 for Fred Hollows. An excellent cheeky way to make a statement.
Just a wee bit seriously, if the Fred Hollows option was a goer, I'd advise contacting them first about it so they would know what the background was and that they'd be OK with that. We wouldn't want to get accused of taking the mickey out of people with real visual impairments in any way.

I agree.

Your expert opinion is unlikely to be substantially helpful (s25(1)) to the fact-finder, and whether or not you are an expert is dubious in any case. Therefore s23 applies and your statement is inadmissible. There you go champ, two birds with one stone.

Slide tackle on the keeper. Yellow. Off.
So Jeronimo wasn't lying to us after all. He didn't dive, he was just attempting a slide tackle. All is forgiven.
Did dura an ricki em up not getting fined then? Or do we find out on a certain date?

Onya Dura. Good Cause. Top Bloke.

The only person whom came out of that game with integrity, honesty and the moral high ground - Our Captain.
Can't wait for the "submarine" to visit the ROF. He'll be getting instructions to "Dive dive dive" every time he receives the ball. He's a cheat! & The FFA have shown they are balless and not sincere about their campaign to stamp diving from the game.
I see last night we got yet another novice referee - His second A League game. Do they use the Phoenix as some sort of test team? And he had a shit game too. Didn't help with the way the lads played but that's for another thread.
Well done Andy Durante - telling the truth!
