This publication is an open access article. businessperspectives.org Problems and Perspectives in Management, Volume 10, Issue 1, 2012 Kieran James (Australia), Rex Walsh (Australia), Razvan Mustata (Romania), Carmen Bonaci (Romania) The appropriation of migrant labor in Australian football Abstract This paper examines the cancellation of Australia’s National Soccer League (NSL) at the end of the 2003-2004 season and its replacement with the hyper-capitalist A-League competition. The A-League was initially established under the guise of a “one-team-one-city” North American model and restricted itself to private-equity franchises that could raise start-up capital of AUD1 million. The shift to the A-League resulted in the ethnic community clubs, which had formed the backbone of the NSL, being relegated to the various states premier leagues. The authors use a Marxist analysis to explain how the transference of fans’ hopes and dreams on to the ethnic clubs and the transference by the part-time and volunteer labor forces of parts of themselves into the clubs have seen this accumulated capital (both financial and cul- tural) robbed and devalued by the A-League.

National Football League linebacker Scott Fujita, also a member of the management committee of the National Football League Players Association: “My three young daughters, like most kids, are curious and ask a lot of questions. My wife and I are as open and honest with them as possible. But there’s one question I’m not prepared to answer: “Why aren’t Clare and Lesa married?” “I don’t know how to explain to them what “inferior” means or why their country treats our friends as such.” “…Sometimes, people ask me what any of this has to do with football. Some think football players like me should just keep our mouths shut and focus on the game. But we’re people first, and football players a distant second.
