Based at the United States Studies Centre at the University of Sydney, Alliance 21 is directed by the Hon Robert Hill AC and Professor Geoffrey Garrett, and is generously supported by the Australian Government and eight corporate partners: Dow, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, GE, News Corp, Visy, Raytheon and Morgan Stanley. To date, through the work of more than two dozen conferences, forums, workshops, lectures and roundtables, numerous commissioned research papers, and the expert contributions of hundreds of leaders on both sides of the Pacific from government, business, and academia, Alliance 21 has highlighted the broad array of mutual interests that underpin and sustain the Australia–US relationship now and in the future. The program has generated new networks of collaboration and understanding between Australia and the United States and developed a wealth of findings and recommendations to help the allies address the challenges and opportunities which lie ahead for this valuable partnership.

Spanning the study of politics and policy, economics and business, culture and society, we fulfill this mission through education, research, public outreach and policy initiatives. Working with partners in Australia, the United States and in Asia, the Centre has grown rapidly and today educates more than a thousand students annually. It provides unique opportunities for young Australians to work and study in the US and Asia, and cooperates with its sister institution, the Perth USAsia Centre at the University of Western Australia, across a range of programs. The USSC innovative policy development and thought leadership initiatives, such as Alliance 21, bring leading Americans and Australians together to collaborate in addressing common challenges.

This report also represents a beginning as Alliance 21 looks to continue its work in the years ahead to deepen the networks, build on the findings, and support the recommendations generated in its first phase. This has only been possible with generous support and expert inputs from a broad network of key stakeholders, thought leaders, and professional staff. In particular, we wish to thank our principal supporter, the Australian Government, and eight corporate supporters: Dow, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, GE, News Corp, Visy, Raytheon and Morgan Stanley. These supporters have not only been financially generous, but their officials and experts have given generously of their time and insights as well. We are extremely grateful to Alliance 21 Co-Directors the Hon. Robert Hill AC and Professor Geoffrey Garrett who, in leading this project, provided it strategic guidance, international profile, and a wealth of knowledge. We also wish to thank the Alliance 21 theme leaders— Professor Howard Bamsey, Professor John Daley, Professor Andrew MacIntyre, Mr Andrew Stoler, Professor Russell Trood, and Mr Tony Wood—for their stewardship of the project’s intellectual and policy-related content that is at the heart of Alliance 21, as well as the dozens of expert contributors on both sides of the Pacific who took part in the conferences, workshops, seminars, and public events under the Alliance 21 banner. Finally, we extend our thanks to all the remarkable women and men on the staff of the United States Studies Centre (USSC) whose hard work and professional expertise contribute so much to the success of Alliance 21. We would especially like to express our appreciation to Melissa Grah-McIntosh, USSC Director of Events and Project Management, and Alliance 21 Administrator. Drawing insights from the enormous amount of work carried out under Alliance 21—much of which is captured in this report—we anticipate strong forward momentum and continued collaboration with all of our Alliance 21 partners to advance our understanding of Australia–US relations. With our thanks, we look forward to working with you in the years ahead.

Defence ties remain a core component of engagement, but the connection has grown to encompass substantially more than a military alliance. Grounded in shared norms and interests, strong Australia–US links contribute to a broad-based special relationship that is increasingly global in scope and which has few equals in the world. Understanding and building on these mutual interests will be critically important given the many challenges that lie ahead. To successfully address these challenges, three fundamental points should serve as strategic guideposts for future Australia–US relations. • Future challenges will be more effectively addressed through an even closer partnership with each other. • Australians and Americans should increasingly work together in Asia as the principal region where they can most effectively act on and expand their partnership for mutual benefit. • While a closer partnership will have a defence and security component, the most effective future Australia–US relationship will be far more comprehensive in concept, scope, and action, encompassing even greater engagement across the full spectrum of the relationship. Key findings Trade, investment, competitiveness, and innovation • Extensive and growing economic ties between Australia and the United States, and between the two coun- tries and the broader Asian region, are a vastly under-appreciated pillar of the relationship. The United States is Australia’s most important economic partner, but even keen observers are probably not aware of the centrality of the United States to the Australian economy. • In the nearly 10 years since its commencement, the Australia–United States Free Trade Agreement (AUSFTA) has proven a remarkable success, with two-way trade up 50 per cent and bilateral investment skyrocketing. • Completion and implementation of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is of the utmost importance and would be the most meaningful reform of global trade since the creation of the World Trade Organiza- tion. The TPP is at least as

  • AFL Coaching Newsletter - May 2010
    AFL Coaching Newsletter - May 2010 Coach AFL this month goes to Leigh Matthews for advice on how to handle a significant loss. Jimmy Bartel gives his perspective on the impact and value of junior coaches. We go to Wayne Goldsmith to consider the questions parents want to know as their children commence their involvement in football for another year. We provide a drill that will improve your player‟s vision, reflexes and ball handling. The newsletter provides an update on the AIS/AFL Academy tour to South Africa and the female coach level 2 scholarship holders. There are updates from states and a calendar of state coaching events coming up. HOW TO HANDLE A DRUBBING By Leigh Matthews The fact that the six-month AFL season is more like a marathon than a sprint is really self-evident. It is a theme that will be pushed in a large variety of ways and means by all 16 coaches. The reality is that while each round provides a glimpse of what is to come, ultimately a win or a loss is the only tangible result that survives into the months ahead. Collingwood fell in by a solitary point against the unfancied Demons, but still all importantly gained their second win and got the valuable four points. Melbourne, despite a gallant performance, still came away without the win. Once the final siren sounds and the game is decided, it is all about stimulating ongoing optimum performance. A big part of the coaching art is to react to the post-game mood and then set the tone and agenda for the week ahead.
