Apparently against the domestic transfer system, second division and community outreach.

Busch said that the player's union's last formal involvement in the NST's development came in 2020.

"Ultimately, we've had no invitation to participate," said Busch.

"We've asked for updates and tried to find out more about that, but outside of what we've read in the media, and sort of one briefing that we had with Football Australia a number of years ago, where they updated us on progress, we haven't been involved.

"Upon issuing the Domestic Transfer System Transformation white paper in January 2021, the white paper posed a series of questions in relation to each of the elements which were intended to provide a framework for structured and transparent consultation, and to encourage and facilitate an informed dialogue regarding the development a uniquely Australian domestic transfer system.

"There were 100 questions posed in this white paper for further consideration and discussion as part of the consultation process. The PFA, along with other relevant stakeholders, were invited into a consultation process. The PFA did not respond to any of the questions posed in the white paper and also formally declined to be a part of any consultation process. Football Australia, continued to consult with other relevant stakeholders.

When pressed on exactly what a lack of "full support across the stakeholder groups" entailed, Johnson said that though there had been buy-in from member federations and NPL clubs -- who are simultaneously advocating for inclusion in FA's mooted National Second Division -- there was still disagreement from the higher levels of the game.

Man, that article is a head spinner. So PFA declined to be part of the DTS process, but haven't heard back from FA about a DTS meeting??? WTF were they expecting after declining to be part of it??

A weird anomaly with football is supporter groups/unions/asscoiations are often the weakest and less listened to in the entire ecosystem of football - if they were smart and on the same page they could be the strongest. 

PFA
APL 
etc

they will never act in the best interests of football. They act in the interests of themselves
