Thought I would blow my own trumpet. This is what I posted on another thread this morning.

"Don't think Crows will cop the iron fist.

I predicted earlier that they would be fined the amount of the 3rd party payment $300k and I still stand by that. 2 years of first and second round picks was on the cards and they may do better as they handed in a 3rd rounder with their first rounder this year. They were late round picks as well.

Tippett will cop half a season and end up at Swans on the money he wanted and they will have him for free, a huge win."

Anyone want to know the tattslotto numbers for this weekend?

Redleg.....I know someone who has an appeal next week seeking a fixed sentence.

Any chance you know the outcome, as you obviously can read the minds of judges?

If we get found guilty

I wouldn't mind receiving the draft disqualification they got.

Cannot recruit the first 2 picks, but you can trade them in the free agency.

WIN / WIN no more skinny bodies. Yeah!

Don't think that is correct. They actually lose their two first picks, but can trade their players for first or second round picks. They don't get to trade the picks they lost. However, the advent of free agency softens the penalty enormously.

The loss of Tippett frees up so much space, they could outbid everyone else to get the best couple of free agents, that might have in ordinary circumstances cost them their first picks anyway.

Yes, appeal dismissed.

Just read all the articles on this "scandal" what an absolute joke.

The Crows can still trade via free agency next year...$300,000 is petty ca$h Trigg didn't even answer questions & why was John Reid shattered? He was already retired...

Time for Vlad & Angry to go soon i feel.

The crows will hardly feel these penalties. Penalties even there board were unaware of.

The whole thing stinks...

No I dont.

I was discussing with someone the tanking issue and his view was that the AFL couldn't find it proved, as it would be a minefield in relation to the gambliing that went on. Litigation could block the courts forever.

Litigation would give the AFL, its commissioners & the game itself 2 blackeyes, & a double hernia.

This is where the AFL goes wrong, they Hit the offenders, then treat them with lollies. start wrong and continue wrong. but which is it,,, chicken first or the Egg?

This has been going on for decades, because they keep trying to appease the supporters by pulling the Wool.

Don't want to burst your bubble, but the post of mine that you responded to with those figures (the one where I mentioned the "steel fist"), was prompted by a tweet I saw containing those exact same penalties you mentioned and saying that was what the Crows and Tippet would be hit with.

the commission doing a little lightweight 'leak', to test the water?

see if the natives will except the magic firestick, as compensation for taking they're minerals & heritage?

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
