Clubs perceived by the AFL to be powerful regularly get off lightly.  Yet minnows like us get whacked all the time.  To call the error "inadvertent" is a cop out of the highest order.  A failure to abide by your fiduciary obligations, for any "business" is inexcusable.  Ignorance is no excuse under the Law

Carlton and Essendon have been whacked just like we have been.

Salary cap discrepancies usually have at least Draft Pick sanctions along with the fine it's unusual that Geelong got away with just a fine, especially such a minor one at that!

Steve Hocking looking after his own club. What a surprise.

Not just his own club. The club he was a key executive of at the time the salary cap discrepancies occurred!

We self reported when Joe Gutnick was in the chair.  Carlton and Essendon were recidivists and by comparison to our penalty, got off rather lightly in my view.

HATE THEM

Smug Bastards 

I guess the AFL feel the need to support one Victorian country team.

Yep. Players have been recruited outside the laws

8 years is a long time to not notice a thing

Absolute BS

Dangerfield, Ablett - both should be deregistered for 12 months!

no doubt our intrepid media reporters will hound the afl for all the details in the interests of transparency and fair play

oh, wait a minute......don't bite the hand that feeds you


Tom Browne has said that it was an error related to GST on management fees the club pays on behalf of players

 

First question: why is the club paying management fees for players?

Second question: how can you have stuffed up gst inclusions for EIGHT straight years???

Third question: getting gst wrong would also flag the tax office, surely - doubt they'd not notice for eight years

of course, the football manager at the cats throughout at least seven of these eight years is now the football manager of the afl as a whole.......

4th question : why is this vague information bring relayed by a third rate muckraker instead of by the AFL in their media release?

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
