They'd better credit Galekovic with the assist on that.

Sigmund and Riera both out for the nix. Burns, Krishna, McGlinchey, Griffiths all starting with 3 attacking players on the bench. Ernie going with the 'score more goals than the other team' approach.

Newy host Perth later on at 5pm.

A spoon hopeful versus a could be a spoon winner, depending on the size of the penalty.

Perth just got fuuuuuuuuucked/David Galloped/Melbourne Stormed.

Kicked out of the finals, fined a shitload. There's some big time fallout coming in terms of resignations and general player contract fuckery, but I'm thinking a fair bit of safe money is on Syndey this weekend

The Guardian posted:

Football Federation Australia has moved decisively to punish Perth Glory for breaching the A-League salary cap, excluding them from the A-League finals this season and handing down a record $269,000 fine.

At the conclusion of round 27, Perth’s position on the A-League ladder will be adjusted to seventh, sending a lifeline for defending champions Brisbane Roar, currently in seventh place and outside finals reckoning.

A statement released by the FFA said its investigations had found that Glory had “deliberately failed to disclose reportable benefits and payments to at least six players, and from the beginning of the 2014-15 season has been operating in excess of the allowable salary cap of $2.55m by in the order of $400,000”.

Fines totalling $269,000 were also handed down for breaches over the previous three seasons: $200,000 for the transgressions occurring this season, $43,000 for breaches during 2013-14, and $26,000 for breaches during 2012-13.

The governing body said Perth were guilty of three breaches, including payments outside a standard player contract; payments to a player’s family member; payments of travel costs; provision of motor vehicles; and accommodation benefits.

The club is yet to respond, but owner Tony Sage has previously stated that should the FFA find the club guilty it could spell the end for the chief executive, Jason Brewer.

The Glory have seven business days to lodge any appeal against the decision.
