He may have had an impact. As of four hours ago The AFC has stepped in condemming the incident. This is significant in the geopolitcal context, moreso than FIFA.

I think foster may have helped put pressure on scott morrison to make make his statement after the public outcry after fosters efforts.

It will hopefully be a domino effect from here.

Details of the situation are scarce, but it seems aussie officials alerted interpol that he had an arrest warrant and was flagged in thailand. Despite australian officials assuring him he had australian and refugee status and could not be extradited.

So it would seem that this mess is of australias doing

Another 60 days in a thai prison...this is horrendous.

I expected him to be home by now once scott morrison and the afc got involved.

I am stunned they are still keeping Hakeem.

How can they take Australia or Morrison seriously after the original "pick up" notice came from the Australia authorities.
And after they told the man it was safe to travel to Thailand.

This stinks from the top.

The chief executive of Australian Football League champions West Coast Eagles has demanded “hateful, keyboard cowards” be held to account after one of the team’s Indigenous Australian players suffered racist abuse on social media.
Betts posted the question “When will it stop?”

Young men in some segments of Australian society, he says, ‘are being radicalised by an increasingly energetic and increasingly forthright and open far-right movement ... The far right is now seeing its narratives imported and reproduced by people in mainstream politics.’

Austrian police say that the leader of that country’s Identitarian Movement, Martin Sellner, received a €1,500 donation from someone whose name matched that of the accused Christchurch killer.

The nature of the connection between the alleged killer and Sellner is still being investigated, following a police raid of Sellner’s home in Vienna on Monday. But what is the Identitarian Movement, and who are the people associated with it?

We had a great and touching moment in the danish Super League last sunday after Awer converted a penalty and scored his first goal after the loss of Bor.

The Kid showed his emotions, was in tears and surroundede by all his teammates. This goal was not just a typical goal. That meant everything for Awer.

Afterwards he showed this t-shirt to honour his sister:
