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

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.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
