Heath Shaw was fined $20,000 and suspended for 8 matches in 2011 for betting $10 on Nick Maxwell kicking the first goal knowing he would be playing in the forward line.

Yes i know. 

They don’t learn. 

Time to get really tough

 

.......and nobody gets caught first time.

I bet he was putting the bet on for a mate....

Very good rjay. What always astounds me is why do they bet themselves. Why not get a mate to do it. However just reminds me that majority of footballers are not rocket scientists.

I rather fondly remember Trav Johnstone putting a bet on at at TAB hours before I was about to watch him playing. I figured he thought he was in for a good game and backed us. 


Jump onto the AFL’s official betting partner’s website, Sportsbet, you can bet on how many games he’ll be suspended for. 

Betting on your captain is far more serious than betting on some other random game.  Both break the rules but the first falls into the 'insider knowledge' category and should be dealt with more harshly.

You could run a book on the AFL having this up their sleeve for when they needed to bluff their way out of a situation like the crowd beef. 

Was thinking the same thing. 

Wonder if Eddie's head pop off when he found out?

 

His kicking for goal was pretty suss against us, ban him for a season.

First thing that came to mind when i the story broke on SEN. i reckon he had himself down for a certain amount of goals for the game.

Greedy so and so.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
