$7500 fine and 14 weeks

David Bridie's thought (kindly retweeted by Supermercado)

"DEAN WALLIS penalty in my book equates to one week for illegal betting and 13 weeks for punching Brad Green in throat in 2000 Grand Final"

It beggars belief that AFL employed people wagger on the footy.

After all the publicity of recent times Why?

I know Gambling can be a serious problem for people but

- Why would do it yourself, He was dobbed in intially by someone who saw him at a TAB

- There are a million things to bet on besides AFL football.

Dumb, Dumb, Dumb

I think it's pretty weak, considering 3 bets, no even half decent contrived excuse, and one was on his own team!

When you compare it to Heath Shaw, it's miniscule.

As a coach, he can still coach during the week, just not on game day.

A fair inconvenience, but it's not much of a suspension.

How stupid is this guy. Firstly he walks into a TAB probably in his bendigo bombers gear and places the bets on. Dumb to start with. The he bets on his own team. Then he lies to the AFL and says it was for a friend and the bet wasnt on a bombers game. He then keeps on lying to the AFL until they keep questioning him and he buckles and says it wasnt for a friend and I did bet on a bombers game.

Seriously and I thought Heath Shaw was stupid.

Karma for the 2000 grand final. He was an absolute **** the way he went out to put Green out of the game and in to a hospital as soon as he could.

I wish nothing but more embarrasment for the man in the future.

Did anyone see the start of ch10 news. Dean said he wasnt aware of the rules about betting. Duh when there are guidelines given to you and to all coaches and support staff and were you living under a rock when Heath Shaw got suspended.

Seriously I know I wrote it earlier but you are dumb

hahaha failed to co-operate with investigation. and then says he doesnt know the rules. hahahaha lowest of the low. akin to a kid lying when they know they have broken the rules.

btw, 14 weeks is a joke. thats the same as shaw and he even bet on essendon. should be out for a year on that scale.

Good one 'Striker'. You are right. i think Wallis told the tribunal he was retiring thus no further action. Then he makes a comeback.Perfect poetic justice here.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
