Australias captain Steven Smith and his deputy David Warner have chosen not to enter into a public debate ahead of the next round of meetings in pay negotiations between Cricket Australia and the Australian Cricketers Association.Having been wined and dined by CA board directors in Melbourne on Wednesday night, Smith and Warner elected only to make conciliatory noises after the end of the Chappell-Hadlee series against New Zealand. Their words were in contrast to the more urgent tone taken by others, including the ACA chief executive Alistair Nicholson and the former Australian international Simon Katich.For us it was a good opportunity to meet the board and have a nice dinner with them and a good chat, Smith said of the dinner, the sort of courtesy that was not offered to Nicholson, among others. They took our points of view, we listened to them and it was nice to see everyone on the same page and trying to get the best for our game moving forward.Sitting alongside Smith, Warner chimed in to say: Dinner was nice.While CA declined to comment publicly on the MOU negotiations, there is a wide expectation that the board will seek to break-up the revenue sharing model that has been fundamental to Australian cricket since 1997. Under that model, Australias players get around 26% of Australian Cricket Revenue, a selection of the money generated by the game that is decided upon by CA.The ACA is seeking the retention of the model while also hoping to expand and future-proof the sources of revenue. This is partly designed to cater for the inclusion of more expansive womens pay in the next MOU, at a time when the game is expanding in professionalism and prominence via the Womens Big Bash League.Smith, Warner and other senior Australian players are critical to negotiations because it is believed that CA will try to tempt them into accepting considerable individual pay rises in exchange for the revenue sharing model being stripped away. In this, the model would be similar to that presently in use for the women, who are paid separately by CA without a wide range of conditions and benefits open to the men via their longer standing MOU agreements.Another key figure in the debate is the former captain Mark Taylor, who forged a middle path between the players and the board when a pay dispute in 1997 was defused by the adoption of the revenue sharing model and the founding of the ACA itself. Now a board director, Taylor is also known to be a mentor of Smith, and a proponent of the move away from revenue sharing.The CA chairman David Peever was previously the managing director of the mining giant Rio Tintos Australian operations and an outspoken critic of union involvement in the workplace. In a 2012 mining conference address, Peever had outlined his views on third party involvement in negotiations between employers and employees.Direct engagement between companies and employees, flexibility and the need for improved productivity has to be at the heart of the system, he said at the time. Only then can productivity and innovation be liberated from the shop floor-up, and without the competing agenda of a third party constantly seeking to extend its reach into areas best left to management.CAs negotiating team is being led by the executive general manager of strategy and people, Kevin Roberts - himself a former board director. The ACA is expected to seek the advice of the former players association chief executives Tim May and Paul Marsh at various points of the process.Radamel Falcao Colombia Jersey . -- Nate Robinson has played for seven teams, so beating one of them is no longer a rare occurrence.

The Athletics were able to catch their breath once Seth Smith jumped to make the catch to seal a 6-4 win over CC Sabathia and the New York Yankees on Tuesday night. "With the career hes had anytime he connects with the barrel its obviously going to be a scary moment," catcher Derek Norris said. "Hes got tremendous power and hes a monster, hes huge. Anytime a guy like that you hear a barrel you know it could be scary. Fortunately for us Seth made a great play and that good old marine layer made the ball go down a little bit." Norris homered and drove in four runs, Coco Crisp hit a leadoff homer and Bartolo Colon (8-2) pitched six scoreless innings to lead the As to their eighth win in 11 games. Oakland (39-27) has its best record after 66 games since 1992. It didnt come easy after the Yankees scored twice in the eighth and twice in the ninth to bring up Hafner as the tying run with a man on first. His drive off Grant Balfour through the thick night air in Oakland died at the fence. "To me it was never going out," said Balfour, who recorded his 16th save in as many chances. "It was just a matter of does it go off the wall a little too high and then its a double. That was the only thing I was worried about. I was never worried about it going out." Sabathia (6-5) allowed six runs and eight hits in six innings in his homecoming start in front of many fans that came from his hometown of nearby Vallejo to watch him pitch. "He made mistakes, and you cant make mistakes at this level," manager Joe Girardi said. "If you do, sometimes youre going to get away with them but most of the time youre not." The As did get some bad news when star outfielder Yoenis Cespedes had to leave the game after the second inning with tightness in his left hamstring. He is day to day. Cespedes appeared to hurt himself running out a groundout in the first inning. Crisp also played through a sore right heel. Colon pitched out of a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the first inning and then didnt allow another runner to reach second base. He allowed three hits and a season-high four walks to improve to 5-0 with a 0.75 ERA over his past five starts. "Hes been unbelievable really for us," Balfour said. "Hes a veteran gguy and hes leading the way for us.dddddddddddd Hes showing the younger guys, Hey Im out here and Im still doing it. Just watching the way he goes about his business hes a true professional. Hes been doing it a long time and is very successful at doing it. Were lucky to have him." Norris was coming off an 0-for-13 road trip and was hitless in 14 straight at-bats before delivering the most productive game of his career. He blooped a two-out RBI double down the right-field line in the second that scored Josh Reddick from first when Lyle Overbay misplayed the ball in his fourth career game in right field. Norris then added the big blow in the fourth inning when he drove a first pitch from Sabathia over the wall in left-centre for a three-run homer that made it 5-0 and gave Norris a career-high four RBIs. The As added a run in the sixth when Josh Donaldson doubled and scored on a wild pitch. The poor outing left Sabathia with a 5.30 ERA in 14 career starts in Oakland. Thats his highest ERA in any active American League park. "The changeup was up and flat, the two-seamer I was yanking down the middle," Sabathia said. "It was just a combination of everything not being sharp." New York scored twice in the eighth off Jerry Blevins and could have had more except right fielder Josh Reddick made a nice running catch to track down a liner toward the line by Travis Hafner. Mark Teixeira added a two-run single in the ninth before Smiths catch ended it. The Yankees threatened in the first inning when they took advantage of two rare walks by Colon to load the bases with one out. But Colon escaped the threat with no damage when he got Kevin Youkilis to foul out to first base and Lyle Overbay to foul out to left field. "We got to make him pay," Overbay said. "We let him off the hook and that kind of gave him some momentum and we couldnt get it back." New York then found itself trailing two pitches into the bottom half when Crisp his third leadoff homer of the season and 11th in his career to make it 1-0.
