Tune in to SEN now - KB to bring up tanking sanctions for Melb.

[Range Rover 1,935]

AFL to discuss Brock McLean's 'explosive' comments says Kevin Bartlett and Patrick Smith.

[DeeZee 7,378]

If they take away our draft picks...then we are stuffed.

[Nasher 33,613]

Demetriou said tanking doesn't exist. I highly doubt the man with an ego the size of his pay packet is going to be forced in to doing any back flips any time soon. It's also going to be impossible to prove anything conclusively.

Keep your pants on buddy, there's not a hope in the world that is going to happen.

[Jonesbag 487]

Surely nothing will happen! My god if we lose our draft picks then we are actually done. Say goodnight MFC

[Sir Why You Little 37,033]

Yes. I have to agree. If the AFL strip us of draft picks over this issue, then that is it. We are finished.

Interesting week.

[rpfc 28,384]

Nothing will happen.

[TheoX 1,222]

Hope he announces sanctions for Richmond at the same time, Wallace admitted to tanking for Cotchin

[Sorge 9]

Patrick Smith is losing the argument. Thanks to all the Melbourne people that have rung up and flogged him with logic.

[binman 42,896]

We've already been punished! We got Scully with that coveted number 1 pick and look where that got us.

[Biffen 12,943]

A team of 20 QCs could not prove that we threw games .

"Tanking" is more of an issue in Sports betting.

Picking a development side ahead of a best side available is entirely different to tanking .

This is merely a Melbourne bashing exercise by the press .They cant get enough of it .

Bring it on [censored].

[daisycutter 29,613]

chicken little...chicken little.....oh no....

[Pates 9,660]

I'm comfortable with us copping our fair whack as long as Carlton do to. Anything we did to lose, they did better.

Exactly right, if we get any form of punishment then it sets a precedent for Carlton and even Richmond to an extent.

Snowball effect

[Forest Demon 4,681]

There is no way this can be proved, and if there ever were sanctions, there would be a lot of other teams going down with us.

Brock went from the apprentices to the masters.

He played in the 'Kreuzer Cup' match, Round 22, 2007 and would have seen the Blues' methods. If he's got a real concern about the ethics of tanking, he would have chosen not to go to Carlton.

The interesting thing would be if DB names names ........goodbye Schwabb Connolly and the Board. Meanwhile McLardy is talking about Cloke!! Yesterday presumably, but this bloke is out of his depth

And don't forget Collingwood. Picking up a priority pick in 2005 wasn't an accident.

There won't be any sanctions. It would open up a can of worms that the AFL can ill afford to do.

[MO FINE 166]

Carlton won the grand slam of tanking in 2007 when it lost its last eleven games including the Kreuzer Cup when Travis Johnstone was allowed to roam around the ground unchecked to collect 42 possessions.

Collingwood won their priority picks in 2005 in unusual circumstances when they begam "list managing" players well before the end of the season.

What about the Bulldogs who dropped Matthew Croft for the last game of a season after he kicked five goals. That's not tanking?

Let them investigate those first.

West Coast ?

I was informed by a then Carlton board member about three weeks before that game that the Blues had Judd in the bag and that they needed to give WCE the best possible trade to swing the deal. With a grin he then said that Fevola wouldn't be playing again that season and he didn't.

Croft, didn't he sue for that, he had a kicker in his contract for more $ or another season if he played X amount of games that seaon?

Carlton tanked: Liberatore

As someone said earlier, Jim Stynes is the elephant in the room.

Now that would be an explosive allegation.
