STOP child labour in football manufacturing and ensure a fair minimum wage

I never thought the working conditions were THIS bad. It's time to pressure the AFL and ensure Sherrin provides a decent minimum wage for those workers who stitch footballs for the Australian market.

This follows an investigation from the Sydney Morning Herald into this issue.
