Sam Newman at it again!

[PaulP]

Yet [member=64]PaulP[/member] , the fundamental assertion remains valid even if Newman has hijacked the message in the context of the vote, that is the question should politics and religion be kept out of sport?

Many go to the footy to escape the barrage of the day to day, not be subjected to more of it!

Let's flip this on it's head, I'm not sure who here are religious or not, but would they be happy for the Sunday sermon to become a paid political statement? I suspect not!

You've pivoted away from the question of financial compensation to another set of questions.
