Lynch has been liberal with the truth before as we all know.

I wonder what THEY'RE hiding ?? Lol

    The club has always claimed the extra clause was instigated by Tippett’s father, Tony, and his manager, Peter Blucher, whose own reputation and that of Alastair Lynch’s Velocity Sports is under serious scrutiny. But Adelaide, to its eternal regret, agreed to it.

    What is it with this mob and players fathers....

    Agree. I am also told he is not a nice guy.

    Apparently so does Kurt's brother.

    From what I can see, they signed an official AFL contract and then signed a second contract which was kept from the AFL. The second contract said that after his official contract expired the Crows would trade Tippet to the club of his choice in exchange for a second round pick. This is the draft tampering bit, and to be honest I think it's a pretty weak case although the AFL will hit them with something for having a secondary contract that was not submitted to the authorities.

    There is also some indication that Adelaide agreed to give him a lump sum severance payout of some sort, hence the salary cap questions. If they have in fact agreed to do this, the amount would have to be included in this year's salary cap and as such they may well be found to be over the limit. I think this is where any real penalties could come from.

    How could Adelaide have entered into this agreement? They agreed to secretly pay him an extra $200k but they had enough room in their cap to do it legally!!!!!

    Hope the AFL absolutely slams Lynch and Blucher.

    Agree.

    The CEO should be rolled for this.

    Also up to their necks in the Fev to Brisbane debacle.

    ?????

    I would have thought the deal they did for Fevola was brilliant for their client.

    It was Brisbane that firetrucked that one.

    If the AFL decides to conduct an investigation into Tippett's management team, then why should it not also widen the investigation into the way in which they handled Tom Scully's move to GWS. I understand poaching of contracted players is not allowed and there are question marks about the way that move was handled.

    Let's hope that the AFL is dedicated to finding out the truth about the practices of clubs, players and their managers.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
