PFA Statement

The PFA has issued the following statement following two unsuccessful attempts by the three Victorian-based A-League clubs to relocate to Canberra in order to enter into the A-League hub in New South Wales:

“What the players and their families have had to endure over the past 48 hours is unacceptable.”

“The lack of clarity, the ad-hoc planning and shifting commitments have left the players embarrassed, frustrated and entirely lacking confidence in the process.

“Whilst the situation is complex, what the players require is simple; a reliable and feasible plan that does not shift the game’s inability to effectively manage these challenges solely on to players and their families.

“Responsibility sits with FFA to present and then execute an achievable resolution that will ensure the completion of the A-League season and does not create further distress for the players.”
