Socceroos & Matildas SUE Football Australia – “It’s Disgusting” | Straight Yellow EP022

The Socceroos and Matildas are suing Football Australia. Families can’t afford to put their kids on the field. And A-League clubs are losing to teams from Singapore and Indonesia in Asia.

Adam’s away, so Robbie Slater is joined by Eddy Bosnar: Dinamo Zagreb, Sturm Graz, Shimizu S-Pulse, Korea, China and the Wanderers. Neither of them holds back. Robbie goes after the CBA that hands the national teams 50% of revenue while the game is broke. Eddy says the real problem is softer: load management, cramping players and a system that makes everything too easy. He would know. In Korea, a Saturday loss meant sleeping at the training camp until the next game.

Plus the “tracksuit hunters” running youth football, why Australia has never taken to the Asian Champions League, a politician’s blunt verdict on who runs the game, getting Cahill and the legends back, A-League Women, and Robbie’s multi for the weekend.
