Numbers on this panel are down from last season (43), due primarily to a restructure and reduction of the NYL to just ten rounds and consequently as a developmental phase a smaller group is necessary. This restructure is clearly inline with the recently announced 20 year plan, where the NYL's place in the competition structure is aligned under the NPL as the 2nd tier of football in Australia and as a stage of development, not necessarily just a step below the Aleague panel. So perhaps those not on the reduced list need to concentrate on NPL matches?

The AR panel has the most movements effectively, with Hakan Anaz VIC retired after a successful World Cup performance in 2014, Jonathan Barreiro VIC moving to the 4th panel and it appears to have 5 new rookies making the step up.
Hyundai A-League 4th Officials (8)
- Jonathan Barreiro VIC
- Matthew Cropper ACT
- Daniel Elder SA
- Alex King QLD
- Lucien Laverdure VIC
- Trent Nash NNSW - new to panel
- Rick Schneider SA
- Luke Withell ACT
The 4ths panel drops down from 10, with effectively 1 per state. Analysis of this group is difficult, as the top 11 referees are effectively a strong group with many years ahead of them and certainly several have goals to achieve higher games in AFC and FIFA in the next few years, so this panel may need to be patient. But with only 8, they are likely to be kept busy
With 8 FIFA Referees and 13 FIFA Assistant Referees currently in the ranks in both Aleague and Wleague competitions, the quality of the game facilitation in the coming year is in good hands.
Congratulations to everyone who have worked hard to maintain or join the panels for 2015/16 - good luck with your season.
